Laser fractional tapering

Fractional laser rejuvenation is a strategy for skin rejuvenation during a woman's difficult time.

This procedure removes skin changes without surgery.

Fractional laser is the best option instead of aggressive laser exposure, photo rejuvenation, DOT therapy and chemical peeling.

Fraxel is a laser that rejuvenates the skin surface and its deep layers. Unlike others, the fractional laser has high stimulatory ability to reproduce collagen with minimal traumatic effects on the skin of the face.

The laser beam passes through a filter that divides it into many laser beams. Because of this, a large traumatic surface does not form on the skin, and the areas of healthy skin between the treated areas stimulate increased collagen production.

Fractional laser can be used on any skin area without the risk of complications and regardless of its phototype. The laser procedure can be carried out at any time of the year, but the rules for protecting the skin from sun rays must be observed.

Patients who have undergone this procedure can start work the next day. And all thanks to the competent laser settings.
