Get rid of sun spots with Fraxel laser

Sun spots are those spots that appear on your skin when you start aging. When sunbathing is part of your warm-weather routine, you are putting yourself at risk for developing sun spots, also known as livers spots. In fact they are the product of excessive sun exposure from some time ago. The sun spots appear after age 40 in people who have light skin but they are more likely to appear in the general population after age 50. These spots are usually found on the forearms, neck, chest and the back of the hands – anywhere that receives an extra dose of sunshine. To get rid of these sun spots with a fresh looks, the most effective treatment is Fraxel laser.

The Fraxel laser treatment is a new procedure that can rejuvenate the skin and erase both old and new scars and that can help remove sun spots and improve the texture and tone of the skin. Fraxel appeals to those who want the power of traditional resurfacing methods and those who are looking for a more effective result than might forgotten with non-ablative techniques. Fraxel is an ideal treatment for today’s busy individuals seeking to improve their appearance without the long healing process normally associated with other invasive procedures.

Fraxel laser works by penetrating the skin at its deepest layers and breaking down the damaged skin cells and tissue. After creating trauma in the treatment area, the skin begins to repair itself and heal, this generates fresh new cells and eliminates the appearance of sun spots and other patches of skin pigmentation for a fresher appearance. Some of the other laser skin resurfacing technologies include:

-Erbium Laser – this intensive laser helps remove the top layer of skin completely to reveal a fresher layer underneath, which can also reduce fine lines, wrinkles and acne scars to leave you with fresher, more radiant skin.

-CO2 Laser – a high intensity laser treatment that can also be used to treat skin cancer and dark pigmentation.

  1. Never heard of Fraxel before I visited my dermatologist to ask him how can I get rid of a few sun spots and some annoying acne scars.
    He suggested me a Fraxel Toronto treatment at some of the best clinics in town...I had it and after only 4 sessions all imperfections vanished...my face never looked that great, even if I previously used some professional creams and oils.
