Procedure characteristics
Fractional laser skin rejuvenation is a non-surgical technology that allows millions of women to regain fresh, firm skin on their face, neck and décolleté.

They heat certain cells in the dermis to 70-80°C, leaving surrounding areas untouched. Untreated areas are tightened to restore skin integrity and create a lasting lifting effect.

superficial (ablative) |
deep |
The method deals well with the first signs of aging. The beam affects the cells of the epidermis to a depth of no more than 1. 5 mm. |
