Fraxel Laser Resurfacing: Rejuvenate Your Skin in Time for Summer

The summer season is nearly upon us – and you know what that means.

You’ll spend practically every day in those limb-baring tank tops and shorts.  You’ll spend those beach days in a revealing bikini or bathing suit.  And don’t forget just how much skin will be on show as you host the neighborhood barbeque or attend an outdoor concert.

Summer is a time for baring your skin with confidence, not hiding it away under makeup.  That’s why the Fountain of Youth Medical Spa in Victoria, TX is proud to offer a new facial rejuvenation treatment that really makes a difference: fraxel laser resurfacing.

If you’ve never heard of this unique treatment before, then you’re in for a pleasant surprise.  The Fountain of Youth Medical Spa’s innovative facial rejuvenation treatment targets those annoying fine lines, pesky wrinkles, pigment irregularities and even embarrassing acne scars.  By using a special laser therapy technique, one of our highly trained medical spa technicians will target your desired treatment area and work to eliminate your facial flaws.

By targeting deep into the second layer of skin – also known as the dermis – the laser stimulates and encourages new collagen growth.  As collagen is responsible for giving our facial skin a firm appearance and elastic feel, this renewed stimulation will make the face look and feel firmer.  New skin formation means that old flawed skin will quickly be removed by the body’s natural restorative abilities, thus fading the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, pigment discoloration and acne scars.

Ready for a fraxel laser resurfacing treatment at the Fountain of Youth Medical Spa in Victoria, TX?  Then here are a few points you’ll need to know before you book your treatment:

• Treatment is quick and simple, and downtime is minimum.  Patients can choose to resume their normal activities right after treatment, or they can rest for a few days if they so choose; recovery varies, as all patients are different.
• After the treatment, your skin will be red and sensitive to the touch.  Therefore, it’s extremely important not to use irritating facial treatments (like those that contain glycolic acid or alpha-hydroxyl), and to use a high SPF sunscreen whenever going out into the sun.  Patients can choose to wear makeup if their skin does not feel too sensitive.
• Results will show two to three months after treatment, as this is generally the time it takes for the dermis to develop new skin.  Like with recovery times, results vary from patient to patient.
• Our medical spa technicians recommend three to six treatments done at intervals that are two to four weeks apart.
