Fraxel Treatment Acne Scars

People, who suffered from severe acne, are often accompanied by scars on the face, the back, or the chest, even years later – an optical flaw, which can substantially compromise quality of life. The most important fields of application for the Fraxel laser treatment of acne scars are dent-shaped, bell-mounted, and bowl-shaped scars after severe acne in the area of the cheeks, temples and the forehead. 

Admittedly, with the innovative Fraxel Repair, a fractionated CO₂ laser treatment, acne scars do not magically disappear, but they can be reduced significantly. With earlier CO₂ laser procedures, skin was skimmed by 100%; with the new Fraxel Repair procedure, many microscopically small laser beams penetrate deep skin layers and remove only a small part of the skin area. The remaining, untreated areas between wounds lead to a faster wound healing of the skin, and thus to a shorter down time of the patient. The body is stimulated to produce new, healthy skin. Thanks to this method, we achieve visible immediate effects and long-term successes, since skin layers continue to heal and the complexion improves during the following three to six months.
