iPixel

The Pixel 2940 Skin resurfacing lasers significantly improves overall skin tone, elasticity, the texture of the skin and is great for scar revision. Increases water moisture content and reduces superficial pigmentation and pore size.

This energy heats water within the surface layers of the skin, causing both the water and the tissue of the skin to turn to vapour. Every time the laser passes over the skin, some of the outermost layers of the skin is resurfaced, allowing your practitioner to control how aggressive or superficial to treat your individual skin concerns. Improving the texture and tone of the skin. Minimising scars, stimulates the growth of new collagen, improving fine lines, wrinkles and the texture of your skin.

Fractional Ablative laser resurfacing method damages only certain zones within the selected target area, (producing tiny white dots, or pixel-like treated areas on the skin), leaving the other zones perfectly intact. Therefore only treating approximately 20% of the skin within the treatment area. This allows the skin to heal much faster than if the whole area was treated.
