Co2 Fractional Skin Resurfacing VS standard Fractional Skin Resurfacing Treatments
As time is progressing, more and more people are getting exposed to increasing pollutants in the air. These pollutants deplete the ozone layer, which protects us from the harmful rays of the sun. Without the ozone layer to protect us, skin diseases, cancers and aging is increasing at an exponential rate. Thus, the demand for laser skin resurfacing Northern has greatly increased, where the total days of sunshine per year on average are more than 200 and people are more prone to harmful effects of the sun.
In the last few decades, various methods and technologies of reversing the aging process have been growing at a fast rate. Everyone wants to have flawless skin and scientists and doctors are working hard to turn those desires into a reality. Laser resurfacing is widely seen as one of the best ways to achieve younger skin, but traditional laser treatments created a host of side effects and often took weeks and even months to heal from. Skin Deep Laser Services is one of the only Medi-Spa’s in Northern Virginia where the new CO2 fraxel laser skin resurfacing treatments are offered. It is a potential solution to the problems caused by standard fractional skin resurfacing treatments.
Skin Resurfacing involves a wide range of skin treatments from superficial chemical peels and microdermabrasion, to ablative laser resurfacing. These procedures can resurface damaged outer layers of the skin to reduce wrinkles, fine lines, sun spots, age spots, freckles, blotchiness, mild scarring, some forms of acne lesions, precancerous lesions and red veins. However, these procedures sometimes have a few strings attached in the form of horrendous side effects and healing times. Fraxel is the brand name of the laser device that pioneered fractional-resurfacing technology. Fractional resurfacing, also commonly known as Fraxel laser skin resurfacing, applies light of a laser to the skin to improve skin texture and remove pigmentation to a small fraction of skin at a given time. The energy of the laser system stimulates collagen in the skin and rejuvenates the skin cells below the skin’s surface. It helps smooth out the creases that cause wrinkling and scarring.
Standard Fractional skin resurfacing Northern offer great results with high risk of complications and healing time stretching out to weeks and sometimes even months. Fraxel treatments sometimes produces raw skin in clients and leads to side effects like oozing, crusting, brown flaking, redness, sensitivity and there is also a risk of scarring and pigmentation changes. Even after going through so much, their affect lasts only a couple of years and the whole procedure requires more sittings compared to the new CO2 fractional laser skin resurfacing.
C02 fractional laser therapy is one of top breakthroughs of this decade. David Goldberg (MD, Clinical professor of dermatology at the Mt. Sinai School of Medicine in New York City) said, “Essentially, you are getting all the benefits of laser resurfacing, but you’re getting it without the downtime and without the horrendous complication rate.” Laser resurfacing uses small beams of energy light to bore tiny holes in the skin, which produces the body’s natural collagen in fast-forward. CO2 fraxel laser skin resurfacing does this in a way that prevents damage to the top layer of skin, offering maximum results with minimal recovery time. It is quick and only requires one or two sessions, with about four days of recovery period. Its’ effects can last up to a decade. Therefore, in the long run, this procedure is cheaper and more effective compared to the standard methods.
