The Fraxel fractional laser is the latest generation of rejuvenation lasers. It is a non-ablative laser, i.e. it does not cause dermabrasion to treat the skin. Instead, the light energy produced passes through the top layer of skin without damaging it. The heat thus applied stimulates fibroblasts, the resident cells of the dermis, which ensure the production of collagen and elastin.

The Fraxel® fractional laser is indicated when the skin begins to show signs of deterioration. It can be used to :

• Improve skin tone.
• Soften light to moderate wrinkles.
• Reduce skin blemishes.
• Erase scars and acne scars.
• Fade stretch marks.
• Cleanse oily skin.
• Smooth the skin of the lower eyelids

Dr. Hayot applies it to the eye contour area in particular, to smooth out the wrinkled appearance of the lower eyelids. It’s an alternative to pinch blepharoplasty, a highly effective surgical procedure for smoothing the lower eyelid.

An initial consultation involves a clinical examination of your skin, to check for any contraindications and establish a personalized treatment protocol.The session takes place in the office. After cleansing the skin, the laser is applied using a handpiece.Laser light energy passes through the top layer of skin without damaging it, stimulating the fibroblast cells that produce collagen and elastin.Its advantage: very light after-effects with no loss of social contact.

The laser stimulates the skin to become smoother and softer, as its complexion becomes more luminous. Wrinkles disappear, and a clear improvement in skin quality can be observed. Optimal results can be observed after 6 months.Several sessions, spaced a few weeks apart, are required to achieve a convincing result.

The cost of laser treatment varies according to the treatment modalities, the procedures required to guarantee customized results, and the total number of sessions. A personalized estimate including Dr. Hayot’s fees and the number of sessions will be given to you at the end of the first consultation.
