About the Fraxel® DUAL Laser
Fraxel DUAL is a non-ablative, fractional resurfacing technology with two different wavelengths (1550nm and 1927nm). As with other types of lasers, this laser targets water in the dermis (middle layer of your skin) by gently heating it to cause controlled thermal tissue damage. The laser creates microscopic columns of tissue injury across the treated area deep into your skin, stimulating collagen production so the skin can heal itself. Using two wavelengths allows the laser to treat both superficial depths of your skin while the other wavelength is used to go deeper into the skin. Because it is a fractional laser, it also treats a smaller area at a time, leaving the surrounding tissue untouched. This Fraxel DUAL treatment obtains results without the harsher treatment of an ablative laser, allowing for a shorter downtime.
These treatments are called skin resurfacing or skin rejuvenation for obvious reasons. They stimulate the growth of new cells to help smooth the skin by stimulating its natural collagen production. Your skin gets not only new cells but also collagen, which plumps the skin.
What Does the Fraxel DUAL Laser Treat?
This treatment helps improve skin tone, texture, and radiance. Here’s a list of what it can help with:
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Brown spots
- Sun damage
- Age spots
- Surgical scars
- Acne scars
- It also has FDA clearance to treat melasma (a skin condition characterized by patchy brown skin discoloration) and actinic keratosis (rough, scaly patches of skin that develop from years of sun exposure.)
The benefits of the Fraxel DUAL laser treatment are that it leaves you with smoother, younger, more radiant skin with minimal downtime and less risk of side effects than an ablative laser. You will typically see the benefits right after your treatment. The results will become more apparent as your skin continues to heal over the months.
Will I Need Multiple Treatments, and How Long Will Results Last?
Since the Fraxel DUAL laser is a fractional laser that treats a smaller skin area at a time, you may need more than one treatment. Each treatment is spread out 4-6 weeks apart. You will notice immediate results after your treatment, and your skin will continue to improve over six months. You can expect your results to last a year or more if you use good skin care products and wear sunscreen daily.
What is HydraFacial?
HydraFacial is a gentle, non-invasive, virtually painless, medical-grade treatment that uses a vortex swirling action to remove dead skin, dirt, debris, and impurities while hydrating and soothing your skin. Its patented technology includes three steps:
- Cleanse and peel: uncover a new layer of skin with gentle exfoliation and relaxing resurfacing.
- Extract and hydrate: a strong, painless vacuum suction removes debris, blackheads, and impurities safely from pores while hydrating your skin simultaneously.
- Fuse and protect: infuses serums explicitly selected for your skin type and skin care goals to maximize your glow.
The Signature HydraFacial treatment option takes only 30 minutes, making it convenient for most people’s schedules. It has been shown to help with various skin issues, such as reducing fine lines and wrinkles, lightening dark spots and patches, cleaning clogged pores, reducing enlarged pores, clearing up mild acne, refining skin texture, and improving elasticity and firmness.
The HydraFacial Advantage
Right off the top, HydraFacial works on all skin types, and since it is customizable, you and your Licensed Aesthetician can personalize it to your skin type and goals. You can see consistent, positive results right away. Plus, there is no downtime associated with the treatment. You can go back to your daily routine immediately.
HydraFacial can also be used on other parts of the body—it’s great for the neck, décolleté, hands, arms, and back.
Most people find HydraFacial a relaxing experience, and it is much gentler on your skin. Treatments such as chemical peels and microdermabrasion use more stringent methods to resurface and exfoliate your skin. While both are very effective, they can irritate some skin types. HydraFacial is a softer treatment since it uses water as an exfoliating medium, leaving you with refreshed and smoother skin.
Is HydraFacial right for you?
HydraFacial works for all skin types, but you should avoid the treatment if you have an active rash, sunburn, moderate to severe acne, or rosacea. If you are currently on Accutane, you might want to wait six months after you finish treatment before you get a HydraFacial treatment.
As always, discuss any conditions (including pregnancy), allergies, or medications with your Dermatology Provider before any treatment.
Getting Great Results
The visible results of a HydraFacial are immediate. The skin glow and excellent hydration can last from 5 to 7 days. We recommend treating yourself to a HydraFacial at least once a month to keep your skin glowing. If monthly treatments don’t fit your schedule or budget, one HydraFacial with changing seasons can benefit your skin.
The ALASTIN Skincare 30-day post-care kit is clinically proven to help speed up the recovery process and boost results, allowing your skin to enjoy the results of the treatments.
September Product Special: 15% off on three products or more.
