FRAXEL has recently appeared to rejuvenate facial skin, using a special device.This procedure is carried out using a laser, which acts on the basis of a fractional photothermolysis.
This technology affects the skin damn, damaging its fabrics.For this reason, the self-eating process is launched.All due to the fact that cells begin to barely produce collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid.
A characteristic of technology
The main characteristic of technology is the care of its impact and its performance.It should also be noted that due to the separation of the laser beam in smaller shelves, the accuracy of exposure increases considerably.
Types of laser fractional photothermiasis
Photothermolysis on the ground is divided into 2 types:
- Ablative.The length of its wave is 2,940 nm.This type of radiation is absorbed by water, so that the beam affects all levels of the skin.The master can regulate the depth of penetration, acting on a certain layer, for the maximum effect.
- Non-baccalaureate.The wavelength is adjustable from 1,320 to 1,540 Nm.This type of radiation affects the structures of the deep skin, but does not affect the upper layers.Thus, the stimulation of the production of elastin and collagen occurs and the cell exchange improves considerably.For this reason, the skin is toned, its lethargy and its sag are eliminated.
The restoration of the skin occurs faster when exposed to non-priest.But after the ablative, the coat and redness are possible.However, both types have great efficiency.
Varieties of Laser Fraksel
There are several varieties of a fraxel laser, each with its own characteristics.
FRAXEL
It is the most common device.The length of its wave is 1,550 nm and the penetration depth can be adjusted from 0.4 to 1.4 mm.It helps to eliminate the spots of age -related pigments, acne, sunburn, traces of acne, and also fights with photographic glass of the skin.
Erby laser
It is a laser which has a wavelength of 1,440 nm.Of all the models presented, it is the sweetest, so it is used in the delicate areas of the face and body.It is also advisable to use it for thin and sensitive people.
This model is authorized even on the mammary glands and the skin of the eyelids.And the recovery period after its use is minimal.
Dual re-store
The model is more advanced because it combines 2 lasers and has a different wavelength:
- Erbiye - 1,550 nm;
- Tulium - 1 927 nm.
This model is used to eliminate scars, deep and small wrinkles, eliminate pigmentation and elimination of post -acne.
Repair
Of all the models presented is the most aggressive.Therefore, they are treated exclusively with the deep layers of the epidermis.This device can even eliminate deep wrinkles on the face and neck.He also faces scars.
Laser benefits or damage
Advanced technology allows you to uniformly affect the necessary areas of the skin.And thanks to the saving exhibition and a small diameter of the transformed area (70 - 150 minutes), there is no healing.Regeneration takes place as soon as possible and rarely takes more than a day.
The skin barrier function does not suffer from radiation, so the infection is completely excluded.The laser does not affect internal organs, acting exclusively on the skin.
Therefore, we can say that the influence of the laser brings much more advantages than damage.
Indications
The laser has very wide use.The testimony of procedures with FRAXEL is:
- age -related pigmentations;
- acne;
- Skin photo colleague;
- sunburn;
- traces of acne;
- Small and deep wrinkles;

In addition, do not carry out the procedure during the menstrual discharge, although it is a recommendation more than a contraindication.
How does the procedure take place?
Before the beginning of the procedure, the master visually evaluates the state of the patient's skin, determines the exposure methods, the depth of penetration of the laser rays.It also determines the number of sessions necessary to eliminate a particular problem.
The procedure itself is carried out in several stages:
- Using a special composition, the skin is cleaned and degraded.
- Lidocaine ointment with lidocaine is applied to areas that will be treated.Wait 40 minutes.This will prevent pain.
- The ointment struck and the skin itself is lubricated with a lubricant.This allows the device to slide easily on the surface of the skin.
- Then the work is done with the device itself.Initially, a face with a small nozzle (sequence: forehead, cheeks, chin).After a larger nozzle, the neck and / or the body are treated.
- The eyelid area is treated last, with a narrow nozzle.
- Once the laser is finished, the lubricant is removed from the skin.
General recommendations before the procedure
Before the procedure, it is important to consult your doctor and ensure that there are no contraindications to this type of exposure.In a few days, it is advisable to start taking anti-Minerpe drugs in order to exclude inflammation.
A preliminary consultation with a master-cosmetologist who will carry out the procedure will not be superfluous.It is likely that it will give additional recommendations.
Possible consequences and complications
The normal consequences of the procedure include:
- itching and burning (insignificant);
- redness of the skin (pass in 5-7 days);

- discomfort;
- Minor pain.
However, despite the gentle effect of FRAXEL, in rare cases, complications are always possible.These include:
- Pigmentation after inflammation has fallen;
- significant edema;
- erosion;
- exacerbation of acne;
- increase in skin sensitivity;
- subcutaneous bleeding;
- Important redness that does not spend long (more than 7 days after the procedure).
The advantages of the Fraxel laser
The main advantages of such an exposure to the laser include:
- The possibility of exposure to different areas of the skin (even on the mammary glands and the eyelid area).
- The possibility of punctual effect on the skin, affect only areas which must be treated by a laser.
- The ability to renew the skin at the cellular level, activating the internal resources of the body.
Expected result
After several fraxel sessions, the skin should become healthier, the pores are shrinking, wrinkles and pigmentation are completely eliminated.In the case of scars, their aesthetic species becomes much better (the insignificant disappears completely).Skin relief is aligned, it becomes elastic and tonic.
Skin care after treatment
In order to avoid complications and help the skin as much as possible after the procedure, it is necessary:
- Sleep with a raised head.This will help reduce swelling.
- It is advisable to eliminate the use of alcohol and nicotine (or at least reduce the quantity).
- Avoid exposure to UV radiation.Including protecting from sunlight, use sunscreen for 3 months, after the procedure.
- Do not use scrubs and aggressive cosmetic products.
- Do not tear the crusts and not developing, in case of appearance.
How often you can do procedures
The duration of the procedure itself generally does not exceed 20 minutes.But the next session can take place at the earliest 5 weeks later.The course of treatment is individually selected for each patient and on average it has 4 to 6 sessions.
The laser effect has a cumulative effect, so the result can persist up to 15 years.
Comparison of FRAXEL therapy with other rejuvenation methods
Analog FRAXEL in terms of effect is considered:
- Termination.Although it is an analog, it is more effective as an additional procedure for FRAXEL.
- Nano-perforation.Although it is a softer procedure, it is not so effective and the effect remains less time.
- Mesotherapy.In addition, such an aggressive procedure is not more affordable, but has a much less pronounced effect.
- Point.Combines the effects of radio and laser waves.This procedure has more contraindications.
The Trarxel's analog is also FRAXEL.However, what is better for him personally, each patient must determine for himself, because the devices are similar by the exposure method.Although Fractale has widened the functionality.
Favorable combinations
The greatest effect of the procedure can be carried out by combining it with others.For example, it is advisable to use plasmel or thermage with FRAXEL simultaneously.This will help quickly achieve the desired result and maintain the effect longer.
