PIXEL SKIN RESURFACING
Laser skin resurfacing (LSR), like chemical peels, dermabrasion
and microdermabrasion is commonly used to restore the youthful
appearance to wrinkled, sun-damaged skin. While yielding excellent
results, LSR often involved discomfort and significant downtime.
That means an extended period indoors, with no sun exposure - an
impossibility for many active and working patients.
Compared to other methods, Pixel skin resurfacing saves patients
time and discomfort. In short, Pixel skin resurfacing offers the
best of both worlds, superior results, yet no pain and no
downtime.
DRAMATIC RESULTS IN LITTLE TIME
We all age, yet none of us want our skin to show the signs of
ageing. For centuries, people have sought ways to safely and
effectively restore smooth, glowing skin. Now it’s possible.
Pixel skin resurfacing improves skin texture and tone, smoothes
wrinkles, and diminishes brown spots. In short, this procedure
erases those factors that add years to our appearance, restoring
youthful vitality.
Best of all, Pixel skin resurfacing does all this with no pain
and no downtime. Providing the effective, dramatic results of
ablative resurfacing treatments - without its prolonged healing
period - this procedure combines the best of both worlds. Pixel
skin resurfacing restores skin to its fresh, healthy state,
generally allowing patients to resume their normal routine almost
immediately.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Pixel skin resurfacing is based on the principle of
micro-thermal treatment zones. The laser pulses create tiny
ablative zones, removing the epidermis and upper dermis. The
treatment then triggers the body’s natural healing process,
stimulating the growth of new, healthy skin tissue.
The procedure treats small zones of the skin, leaving
surrounding tissue untouched and intact. These large unaffected
areas act as a reservoir for more effective and rapid tissue
healing and collagen production. The bottom line: new, healthier,
smoother tissue in place of skin imperfections.
WHAT TO EXPECT?
Your physician will determine the ideal treatment plan for your
needs. Generally, treatment involves two to four sessions, at four
week intervals. Right after treatment you may feel a slight
tingling sensation. You may experience slight swelling for a day or
two. As new skin replaces dead tissue, your skin will flake, a sign
that healing is underway. Your skin will look better immediately,
and will steadily improve over the next few months.
DOES IT HURT?
Far more comfortable than conventional laser skin resurfacing,
Pixel skin resurfacing is experienced by most
patients as a comfortable sensation.
WHO CAN BE TREATED AND ON WHAT PARTS OF THE BODY?

REWARDS OF PIXEL SKIN RESURFACING
Pixel skin resurfacing can be used on patients of most skin
types anywhere on the body. Since this procedure spares healthy
tissue, it can be performed on delicate skin areas, such as the
face, neck, chest and hands.
