ActiveFX

ActiveFX is the latest advance worldwide in the treatment of aging skin. It is possibly the most advanced fractional laser procedure presently available in the world today and it can be performed in a single treatment with minimal patient downtime of about 4 to 5 days. Patients should understand this is a real ablative CO2 laser (totally different to other heavily marketed and much less efficient devices such as the desquamative type lasers which, require multiple treatments to achieve a much less favorable result). During fractional treatment, only a portion of the skin's surface is treated by the laser, leaving small "bridges" of untouched skin. This technique makes the healing process much quicker and enables patients to get back to their normal life styles sooner. It is also less painful than other skin tightening RF devices . Other major benefits include the ability to use it under eyes to remove lines that Botox cannot be used to treat.

The results of ActiveFX laser treatment are long-term and, with proper sun protection, can persist for many years. Most effects of treatment become visible right away, whereas others – such as new collagen formation – build up gradually and become more evident over time. Therefore, most people look even better 3-5 months after the procedure.

In most cases, only one treatment is needed. The initial redness fades in a few weeks to a light pink, which can be concealed with makeup. The discoloration disappears on average in one or three months. The goal of laser resurfacing is to enhance facial appearance. Results of the procedure depend on the size, shape and location of the imperfection and the patient's heredity, age and general skin condition
 

The Active FX laser from Lumenis is the latest innovation for skin rejuvenation! Active FX is performed using the Active FX CO2 laser system, featuring the unique DOT Scanner with Infinite Delivery Options for ablative skin rejuvenation with rapid healing. Active FX is ideal for treatment of age/sun spots, skin laxity/texture, wrinkles and acne scars.

Active FX is the ideal micro-ablative approach to skin rejuvenation. It creates thousands of microscopic perforations, which induce immediate skin tightening and stimulate new collagen growth, improving the skin’s texture and tone to fight fine lines and deep wrinkles, and even acne scars.

Active FX also leaves the skin around each of the perforations intact, which allows the epidermis to heal from the edge of these tiny holes very rapidly, significantly improving overall complexion.

CO2 laser technology has been the gold standard in skin resurfacing for over 15 years. Active FX  is  a new updated evolution of laser skin resurfacing, yielding outstanding CO2 results, with only a fraction of the down time.  Active FX uses spot size for better energy distribution to treat a wider range of patients for both collagen remodeling and the appearance of aging.
