After months of having the Fraxel® laser in the office of the Plastic Surgery Institute of Atlanta – our patients and I couldn’t be happier with the results. As evidenced in the before and after pictures below – we are consistently blown away with the Fraxel® laser’s capability to give you smoother, more even toned skin, without having to undergo surgery.  As many of you know, the Fraxel® laser can be used to smooth out fine lines and wrinkles; but that’s just the tip of the iceberg in laser treatment options.  Say you have pigmented lesions (age spots) on your hands; the Fraxel® laser can be used to lighten the affected areas – making your hands look years younger. The full list of Fraxel® treatment and repair options include:

·                Wrinkles

·                Fine lines

·                Furrows

·                Acne Scars

·                Surgical scars

·                Bumpy or uneven skin texture

·                Discoloration and uneven skin pigmentation

·                Pigmented lesions (sun or age spots)

·                Sun-induced redness

·                Laser Blepharoplasty (eye-lid surgery)

·                Skin resurfacing

·                Fine lines around the eyes and mouth

·                Melasma (mask of pregnancy)

In honor of our Fraxel® success we at the Plastic Surgery Institute of Atlanta are offering Fraxel® laser treatments for half price!  Call our office for more information or to set up a consultation.

Despite what you may see in films like the summer hit Star Trek, lasers are not confined to use in intergalactic warfare. In fact, the laser provides a new, safe, and simple way to treat cosmetic problem areas more effectively than ever. Enter: the Fraxel® Laser. The Fraxel® laser is unique in that it only treats the old, damaged skins cells without affecting the healthy cells and surrounding tissue – making treatments highly targeted and effective with little to no downtime. The procedure generally causes only minimal irritation, similar to mild sunburn or a “prickling” sensation, allowing you to walk right out of the office after your treatment and continue with the rest of your day. Fraxel® procedures include treatment and repair for:

• Wrinkles
• Fine lines
• Furrows
• Acne Scars
• Surgical scars
• Bumpy or uneven skin texture
• Discoloration and uneven skin pigmentation
• Pigmented lesions (sun or age spots)
• Sun-induced redness
• Laser blepharoplasty (eye-lid surgery)
• Skin resurfacing
• Fine lines around the eyes and mouth
• Melasma (mask of pregnancy)
