Active FX is a skin resurfacing treatment which can help fair skin tones enjoy smoother skin, fewer wrinkles and less scarring. Ideal for those with fair skin, Active FX laser skin treatments are helpful in allowing a patient to uncover their true beauty.
What Can Fair Skin Tones Expect?
Since Active FX is a procedure that involves a laser, there are some basic side effects which may affect a person with fair skin:
- Redness
- Skin sensitivity
- Swelling
While these side effects may show up on the skin the day of the treatment, they will generally fade within a few hours or perhaps a day, depending on the sensitivity of the skin. As many with fair skin have more sensitive skin, the procedure may be slightly more painful.
Other Side Effects to Consider
Those with fair skin may find that Active FX will cause their skin to flake a bit for a few days, revealing healthy new skin. This skin will be pink, so patients will want to keep the skin moisturized and avoid wearing makeup for a few days to allow the skin a chance to heal. However, as the Active FX treatment does not go too deeply into the skin, the healing time will be minimal for the patient with fair skin.
