Fraxel and Oily Skin

Fraxel is a cutting-edge, non-invasive treatment option for anyone with skin problems. It has shown remarkable success in the treatment of sun damage, wrinkles, acne and surgical scars and signs of aging. There are varying degrees of treatment, making it an ideal option for anyone suffering from problem skin, even those with oily skin issues.

How It Works

During the therapy session, lasers go beneath the surface of the dermis. These lasers make microscopic wounds under the surface of the skin, prompting the body's natural healing process. This also stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, giving the skin a fresher and more youthful appearance. Depending upon the intensity of the treatment used, and the severity of your skin problems, you may need to have more than one session.

Fraxel and Oily Skin

Although Fraxel is most commonly used to treat common skin problems such as wrinkles and scarring, overall it restores a youthful and tight appearance to the skin. It improves skin texture, pore size and tone--all of which are problem areas for those who have oily skin.

If you are not sure if Fraxel is the right treatment option for your skin problems, be sure to consult with your dermatologist. He will be able to discuss this kind of therapy with you and help you decide if it's the right choice for your needs.
