Advantages and Disadvantages of SmartXide Dot Therapy

SmartXide Dot Therapy employs carbon dioxide laser beams that will reduce wrinkles, age spots and other imperfections from the surface of the skin. SmartXide Dot Therapy has a lot of advantages and is more efficient than the traditional carbon dioxide treatments; however, it is important to know the disadvantages of the procedure as well.

Advantages of SmartXide Dot Therapy

The SmartXide Dot Therapy is a more advanced technique of skin rejuvenation that treats one area of skin at a time. The procedure is versatile, as it may reduce wrinkling, age spots, scars or acne; at the same time, the CO2 laser beams will tighten the skin by stimulating the formation of collagen. A single treatment of SmartXide Dot Therapy can visibly rejuvenate the skin.

SmartXide Dot Therapy is a fractional resurfacing treatment that will cause fewer side effects and presents fewer risks than traditional CO2 laser treatments. The recovery time after SmartXide Dot Therapy is up to 10 days, which is minimal compared to the 6 months recovery time required by the traditional CO2 treatments.

The procedure will not affect the skin, due to the fractional technique that treats small portions of the skin at a time. The treatment may be applied on the face, neck, hands or other areas that require resurfacing.

Disadvantages of SmartXide Dot Therapy

One disadvantage of the SmartXide Dot Therapy treatment is the price. The costs of a SmartXide Dot Therapy treatment may range between $2000 and $4000, depending on the areas treated.

Some patients may also experienced extended redness of the skin.
