Repairing your aged and damaged skin.
All in a single treatment.

Over the years, your skin is exposed to sun, air pollution, stress, fatigue and lifestyle factors such as smoking, which can affect your skin's texture, color and tightness. Fraxel re:pair® is a revolutionary laser treatment to correct deeper wrinkles, tighten skin and remove years from your appearance.

A traditional CO2 laser removes the entire surface of your skin, creating higher risks for potential side effects and a longer recovery time.

Fraxel re:pair® uses patented fractional CO2 technology which creates microscopic laser columns. These columns target only a fraction of the skin at a time, leaving the surrounding tissue intact. This "fractional" treatment allows your body to heal the skin much faster than if the entire area were treated at once.

What it treats
Fraxel re:pair treatment is a revolutionary new way to correct aged and damaged skin–without the degree of risks, prolonged downtime or adverse reactions of non-fractional ablative procedures. Instead, you get dramatic results in a single treatment with fast recovery. Fraxel re:pair treatment has FDA clearances for many indications on and off the face, including:

• Wrinkles
• Irregular texture
• Age spots/sunspots
• Sun-induced redness

Remarkable results, remarkably simple
Typical benefits include:

• Dramatic results in a single treatment
• Smoother, more even skin tone and texture
• Softening of deep frown lines and wrinkles
• Improved appearance of redness caused by sun damage

Depending on the aggressiveness of treatment, the procedure takes 20 minutes for a full face, with most men and women returning to routine activities after a week. For more information about the Fraxel re:pair treatment experience, please see the FAQ.
