The MULTIPLEX FRACTIONAL technology

Birth of a new technology

It is precisely because of the damages induced by CO2 lasers that the idea of the FRAXEL was born. In theory, the innovation is brilliant. Indeed, instead of affecting the whole skin surface in one move, there are thousands of impacts, a bit like a matrix, leaving several areas of healthy skin that will help in the healing process

Instead of one big session, there are 4 to 5 sessions, and at the end of the treatment, the entire dermis and epidermis are affected. As we are always looking for novelty, we have worked with one of the first Fraxel lasers imported in Europe. The complex and expensive technology did not always provide very satisfying results.

Like all good ideas, this idea has been copied and improved by other manufacturers. We are now equipped with the CYNOSURE AFFIRM MULTIPLEX laser, which responds to all our demands and seems to be one of the best devices available on the market

This video, more explicit than a long speech, is 5-minutes long and describes the different properties of the laser. We thus recommend you to look at it

This laser uses two Nd-Yag wavelengths.

The first one, at 1320 nm, is very well absorbed by deep tissues. The beam is decomposed in thousands of spots following the now completely handled fractional technology, now available at very reasonable costs. The heat modifies the tissue collagen and forces the cells to make some more.

The second, at 1440 nm, is strongly absorbed by the skin. The heat destroys pigmentation marks and induces skin peel.

After the session, the skin is very red and hot and must be cooled with cold applications. It is important to keep away from the sun during the treatment so as to avoid complications such as burns, possible with any kind of laser.
