Principle of treatment

Fraxel laser provides energy output by using unique light energy and segmented micron laser beams. Its beam heat destroys tissues and damages the dermis, so that these injured tissues can be repaired naturally and form new and healthy ones. These regeneration results can improve skin quality and scar condition.
