ActiveFX – Fractional Laser Treatments
Is ActiveFX right for you?
Active FX is an ideal treatment option if you:
• Have a busy lifestyle or can not be away from work for an extended time
• Want noticeable results with minimal downtime
• Want to treat issues of pigmentation, fine lines and wrinkles
What is ActiveFX?
High-energy beam of laser light interacts with the skin’s surface causing the upper layer to peel off and regenerate a layer of new, healthy skin. The laser beam is applied in a fractional pattern, leaving small “bridges” of untouched skin. This technique makes the healing process much faster and enables you to get back to normal activities sooner.

ActiveFX Benefits
Active FX produces a dramatic effect on the skin. It causes immediate collagen contraction, reduces wrinkles and fine lines, and softens deeper frown lines. Noticeably improves skin tone and texture and stimulates new collagen formation and plumps the skin. Results of treatment can be maximized with proper sun protection. Most effects of treatment become visible right away.
What can you expect following ActiveFX?
You may feel warmth similar to sunburn following your Active FX treatment. You can drive yourself home following the procedure. With gentle washing and moisturizing regimen, your photo treated skin will begin to flake off within 2 days. After about 4-7 days, your doctor will probably allow you to wear make-up. Pinkness is often gone in about a week but, can vary person to person. Most people continue to show improvement up to six months after the procedure.
