Laser fractional rejuvenation
A fractional laser rejuvenation strategy to renew the skin during a difficult period for a woman.
This procedure removes skin lesions without surgery.
Fractional laser is the best solution instead of aggressive laser exposure, photo rejuvenation, DOT therapy and chemical peeling.
Fraxel is a laser used to rejuvenate the surface and deep layers of the skin. Unlike others, the fractionated laser has a high stimulating ability to reproduce collagen with minimal traumatic effect on the facial skin.
