Fraxel re:pair in Buffalo, NY

Your Fraxel re:pair treatment will begin with the application of a topical numbing agent and, in most cases, the use of a nerve block or local anesthetic to diminish potential discomfort. Once the area is numb, a special hand piece will be passed over the treatment area to allow the laser energy to penetrate the tissue to the desired depth. The procedure usually takes about 20 to 35 minutes to perform in most men and women.

The Fraxel re:pair procedure is an ideal choice for the treatment of deep wrinkles and lines, scarring, age and sun damage, and other cosmetic damage that would usually require a more invasive procedure.

The Fraxel re:pair technique focuses the laser energy on tiny, individual areas located within the larger treatment area, resulting in effective treatment for cosmetic damage while lessening discomfort and recovery times. The controlled damage of the Fraxel re:pair system also encourages the development of new collagen.

In most individuals, recovery time for the Fraxel re:pair treatment takes from five days to two weeks. During recovery, you may experience redness, swelling, oozing, and some discomfort in the treated area. Initial results may be seen during the healing phase, with optimal results appearing several weeks to even months following the procedure, as new collagen continues to form.

Fraxel re:pair treatment costs will vary, based on the size of the area being treated, and usually range between $2,000 and $7,000.
