Overview

Fractional laser resurfacing for noticeably smoother, clearer skin with minimal downtime

Fraxel is a clinically proven fractional laser that treats a precise portion of the skin at a time rather than removing the entire surface. This creates thousands of tiny micro-thermal zones in the dermis, triggering the body's natural healing process and stimulating fresh collagen production, while the surrounding untreated skin accelerates recovery.

The result is a significant improvement in skin tone and texture, with reductions in fine lines, wrinkles, pigmentation, acne scarring and sun damage, and a noticeably more luminous, rejuvenated complexion. Because only a fraction of the skin is treated at once, downtime is far shorter than with traditional full-surface resurfacing.

Each session targets 15 to 20% of the skin's surface, so a course of three to five treatments spaced approximately four weeks apart is typically recommended for optimum results. Fraxel can be used on the face, neck, chest, chin, lip area and hands. All patients at Maison Restorative receive a thorough medical consultation before treatment begins.

    Consultation

    Your practitioner assesses your skin, confirms suitability, discusses your concerns and designs a personalised course of treatment.

    A numbing cream is applied before the session; the Fraxel device then passes over the skin, delivering precise fractional energy to stimulate collagen without treating the full surface.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

What does Fraxel treat?

Fraxel is clinically proven to address fine lines and wrinkles, surface and deeper pigmentation including melasma, acne scarring, sun damage and overall skin quality on the face, neck, chest and hands.

How many sessions are needed?

On average three to five sessions spaced approximately four weeks apart are recommended, as each session treats 15 to 20% of the skin's surface. Your practitioner will advise the right course for your concern.

What is the downtime?

Most patients experience three to five days of redness and fine peeling after each session. This is considerably shorter than the weeks of downtime associated with traditional ablative resurfacing.

When will I see results?

Improvement continues progressively as collagen remodels over several months following the course. Many patients notice initial changes in tone and texture within the first few weeks.

Is Fraxel safe for all skin types?

Your practitioner will assess your skin type and concerns at consultation to confirm Fraxel is appropriate for you. Parameters are carefully set for each individual to minimise the risk of unwanted pigmentation changes.

How much does Fraxel laser resurfacing cost?

Pricing depends on the areas treated and the course agreed for you and is confirmed in writing at your consultation, with no obligation to proceed.
