Fractional Laser & Resurfacing
Many of the signs of aging can be improved without going through the downtime of full CO2 resurfacing. New advances in fractional resurfacing have made it possible for patients to get the results they want with only minimal impact on their lifestyle.
Using a pixelated scanner to deliver “microspots” of thermal energy, Dr. Lee can improve the look and feel of your skin while minimizing the downtime. These microspots are little areas of injury to the skin that are interspersed with untreated skin areas, sometimes referred to as “bridge” therapy. This “bridge” approach is less painful than traditional CO2 and results in faster healing while still providing excellent results.
Dr. Lee is trained and specializes in both full and fractional laser resurfacing. The most popular fractional resurfacing procedures are the ActiveFX, the DeepFX, and the TotalFX. The FX treatments are performed using the Lumenis CO2 laser, the gold standard CO2 laser. Each of the treatments results in visible immediate results while collagen formation continues for up to 6 months to a year.
The ActiveFX is specifically suited to address the upper layers of the skin. The ActiveFX can improve wrinkles, fine lines and soften deeper frown lines. It helps improve the appearance of skin tone, texture and scars, helping to restore the skin to a more healthy youthful look. It stimulates new collagen growth and lightens the brown spots and other dark areas.

The more intensive DeepFX is preferred for individuals who are looking
for improvement to the appearance of deeper wrinkles and lines. The
DeepFX treats the overall skin tone and texture and can dramatically
improve the appearance of scars. It is especially beneficial for those
experiencing peri-oral rhytids, which are the deep wrinkles that can
occur around the lip area of patients.
The TotalFX treatment combines the DeepFX along with the
ActiveFX to simultaneously treat the deeper wrinkles and scars along
with helping improve the lighter wrinkles, skin tone and texture, and
improving collagen production.
