Pixel Skin Resurfacing

Dramatic results in little time

We all age, yet none of us want our skin to show the signs of ageing. For centuries, people have sought ways to safely and effectively restore smooth, glowing skin. Now it’s possible.

Pixel skin resurfacing improves skin texture and tone, smoothes wrinkles, and diminishes brown spots. In short this procedure erases those factors that add years to our appearance, restoring youthful vitality.

Best of all, pixel skin resurfacing treatments-without its prolonged healing period-this procedure combines the best of both worlds. Pixel skin resurfacing restores skin to it’s fresh, healthy state, generally allowing patients to resume their normal routine almost immediately.

How does it work?

Pixel skin resurfacing is based on the principle of micro thermal treatment zones, removing the epidermis and upper dermis. The treatment then triggers the body’s natural healing process, stimulating the growth of new, healthy skin tissue.

The procedure treats small zones of the skin, leaving surrounding tissue untouched and intact. These large unaffected areas act as a reservoir for more effective and rapid tissue healing and collagen production. The bottom line: new, healthier, smoother tissue in place of skin imperfections.

What to expect?

Your clinician will determine the ideal treatment plan for your needs. Generally, treatment involves 3-5 sessions, at 2-4 week intervals. There is little or no discomfort during the treatment. Most commonly patients experience a mild sunburn sensation afterward. (3-5 hrs.) that is easily neutralized with a gentle moisturizer. You may experience slight swelling for a day or two. As new skin replaces dead tissue, your skin will flake, a sign that healing is under way. Your skin will look better immediately, and will steadily improve over the next few months.

Does it Hurt?

Far more comfortable than conventional laser skin resurfacing, Pixel skin resurfacing is experienced by most patients as a comfortable sensation.

Who can be treated and on what parts of the body?

Pixel skin resurfacing can be used on patients of most skin types anywhere on the body. Since this procedure spares healthy tissue, it can be performed on delicate skin areas, such as the face, neck, chest and hands.

The Advantage of Pixel Skin Resurfacing

Laser skin resurfacing (LSR), like chemical peels, dermabrasion and microdermabrasion is commonly used to restore the youthful appearance to wrinkled sun-damaged skin. While yielding excellent results, LSR often involves discomfort and significant downtime. That means an extended period indoors, with no sun exposure- and impossibility for many active and working patients.

Compared to other methods, Pixel skin resurfacing saves patients time and discomfort. In short, Pixel skin resurfacing offers the best of both worlds, superior results, and a much wider scope of treatment then the traditional technologies.

The Pixel delivers results that are equal to ablative lasers, while eliminating the possible side effects of those ablative lasers.

What conditions will the Pixel help?
