Fraxel Laser uses a fractional thermolysis device that focuses on the use of microscopic laser columns to treat your skin one fraction at a time.

Ablative Fraxel laser is the aggressive skin resurfacing procedure to tackle moderate to severe issues. The laser used will remove the epidermis of your skin and vaporizes some of the inner tissues.
