Conditions that Active FX Treats

Active FX uses fractional resurfacing technology to treat patients who have signs of aging through wrinkles, skin folds and fine lines. Also, the non invasive laser based procedure helps rid the skin’s surface of uneven pigmentation and moderate scarring as well.

Wrinkles and Lines

Throughout life, many people develop wrinkles due to repeat facial expressions such as frowning or smiling. Consequently, some of these facial marks often become permanent. Individuals have several options when trying to eliminate these age marks through skin rejuvenation products like Active FX.

Unlike dermal fillers, which temporarily work to fill the sunken regions of skin, the fractional resurfacing method actually destroys certain regions covered in wrinkles. This process targets only specific areas and the body then grows new layers of healthy skin in place of the previously treated spots.

Uneven Pigmentation

Pigmentation imbalances caused by sun exposure or blood vessel damage easily becomes removed through repeat Active FX treatment sessions. The fractional resurfacing lasers acts in the same way for pigmentation correction by eliminating the top layers of skin that look different than other regions on or off the face.

This process works as a balancing treatment in which patients will usually end up with even skin tone and a newer and younger looking complexion.

Scarring

The most powerful or intensive Active FX treatments have the ability to destroy mildly protruding scar tissue caused by acne or surgical processes. Also, the fractional resurfacing process works to fix textural irregularities which sometimes sink in rather than jut outwards.

More treatment sessions often permanently remove scars, while limited treatment works for small and less noticeable conditions.
