A New Class of Treatment Therapy for CO2 Laser Skin Resurfacing
The Fraxel re:pair laser system, the result of two years of clinical research, represents a new category in skin rejuvenation: Ablative Fractional Resurfacing (AFRTM) treatment. It is the only device on the market that has received FDA clearance specifically for skin resurfacing with a fractional mode of delivery.
“Ablative fractional skin resurfacing with the Fraxel re:pair laser is the biggest breakthrough for wrinkle removal in the last 10 years,” said Christopher Zachary, FRCP, chair of the Department of Dermatology, University of California at Irvine. “Results approach those we can achieve with a facelift, with very few complications and limited downtime. The Fraxel re:pair system produces significant tissue tightening, wrinkle reduction and textural improvement, both on and off the face.”
The Fraxel re:pair laser is the industry’s only minimally invasive, ablative fractional laser system that delivers a full spectrum of aesthetic treatment from Fractional MicroDermAblation™ (FMDA™) treatment to Fractional Deep Dermal Ablation™ (FDDA™) treatment. It is the only ablative resurfacing device capable of being operated by a single clinician, because of its built-in smoke evacuation system, and capable of treating at depths from 300 micrometers (µm) to 1.6 mm into the dermis, all in a single hand piece.
Findings of the two-year, multi-site clinical study of the Fraxel re:pair system will be presented at the AAD annual meeting. Some of the key sessions are listed below.
The presentation titled, “Carbon Dioxide Fractional Laser Rejuvenation,” will be given by Christopher Zachary, FRCP, on Friday, Feb. 1, 2008 at 11:05 a.m.
The presentation titled, “Fractional Resurfacing with the Fraxel Laser,” will be given by Tina S. Alster, M.D., on Saturday, Feb. 2, 2008 at 10 a.m.
The presentation titled, “Fractional Ablative Resurfacing,” will be given by Christopher Zachary, FRCP, on Saturday, Feb. 2, 2008 at 10:30 a.m.
The forum titled, “Fractional Laser & Light-Based Technologies,” will be led by Vic A. Narurkar, M.D., from 3 p.m. – 5 p.m. on Sunday, Feb. 3, 2008.
The Fraxel re:pair laser system was recently granted the industry’s only FDA 510(K) clearance for a fractional ablative device for the treatment of wrinkles, rhytides, furrows, fine lines, textural irregularities, pigmented lesions and vascular dyschromia, joining the prior clearance for skin resurfacing.
