Despite so many beauty products and treatments it is
difficult to stop the natural aging that takes away the youthfulness of our skin.
Aging affects our skin’s texture and our appearance by giving an older look to
our face and skin.
Fraxel treatment is one of the ways that has been proved to
reverse the signs of aging and keep you youthful. The following article deals
with a basic introduction about Fraxel treatment and its miraculous effects to
curb aging signs.
Fraxel is a laser technology which can naturally slow down
the aging process and give you back your youthful appearance. Fraxel can treat lines, wrinkles, pigmentation,
sun damaged skin and even actinic keratosis effectively.
It has been approved by FDA to treat coagulated soft
tissues, pigmented skin and even works on wrinkled skin. Fraxel helps to heal
the skin fast and enhances the beauty of the face.
It cannot be used to treat face beauty but also can work
upon neck, arms, hands and chest portions. The good thing is fraxel treatment
work effectively on all skin types and even tanned skin.
How
does the Fraxel Technology
work?
Fraxel laser is an innovative technology that can
reinvigorate the affected areas of the skin by boosting the collagen production
of your skin. It can even clear off the age spots, dark spots and even the
scars by penetrating deep into the dermis.
There are two types of fractional technology- fractional
lasers and the CO2 laser systems.
For patients below 50 simple Fraxel treatment is
recommended. But for patients with wrinkles and deep scars the fractioned CO2 lasers
works more effectively. The CO2 system laser requires certainly takes more time
than the simple Fraxel treatment.
The erbium glass fractional lasers works best on
following skin conditions:
- Sun
damaged, wrinkled , and aged skin
- Some
cases of melasma
- Surgical
scars
- To
reduce the fine lines near the eye region
- Can
improve skin tone
How to deal with pain during the treatment?
Well to be true, the fraxel treatment is indeed painful. People with a super sensitive skin are
bound to experience pain during the treatment. Otherwise, the treatment
involves mild to moderate levels of discomfort and pain.
And generally pain is an important factor for most people in
deciding to get the treatment or not. But still there are ways to keep away
from excess pain and have a comfortable fraxel laser session.
Generally, a numbing cream is used to keep away the patient
from excess of discomfort. Dr Numb is a topical anesthetic numbing cream which
if applied to the part to be treated can really cut off excess pain. This can
be applied one hour prior to the treatment and covered with a saran wrap. After
an hour the body can be checked for the sensation and accordingly the treatment
can be given.
Dr Numb’s cream is one of the safest numbing creams in the
market which has no ill-effects on the health of the individual. It has even
been approved by FDA for usage in dermatological treatments. It is used by
tattoo artists, beauticians and even doctors to provide a painless treatment to
their patients.
Dr Numb’s cream consists of lidocaine which numbs the skin
for a long time. For dual fraxel
treatments where swelling lasts for a longer time, Dr numb’s cream can help in
getting quick relief.
Dr numb’s cream can even be applied for relieving pain after
the treatment.
How to decide if you need a Fraxel?
You should not decide for yourself whether you need a fraxel
or not. It’s best to check with the doctor or aesthetician if your skin really
needs fraxel laser treatment or there are alternative ways to treat it.
Fraxel laser treatment can work on all types of skin and
give improved results. Mostly people with a highly damaged skin condition,
excess of acne and unnatural skin texture go for Fraxel treatment.
And sometimes money and time can also be a deciding factor
in going for fraxel or not.
Fraxel
treatment is not receommnded for pregnant women, people with a cold sore. They
should consult first before going for this.
