Individuals dealing with uneven skin tone and texture have limited options for concealing these imperfections. Champs-Elysées Aesthetic Medical Center offers iPixel skin-resurfacing laser treatment, which helps enhance skin texture, tone, and pore size while reducing or eliminating the appearance of marks and blemishes. In comparison to older resurfacing laser technologies, iPixel belongs to the new generation of non-ablative fractional lasers, delivering superior results with minimal downtime.
The iPixel laser derives its name from the innovative pixel laser configuration, which imprints a small pin-sized pixel grid onto the skin. This advanced Er: YAG module is fractionally ablative, heating the compacted scar tissue with precise, targeted wave energy, effectively eliminating damaged tissue in the process. The laser penetrates the skin’s upper layers with precise, controlled penetration and intensity. As a result, iPixel notably enhances skin tone, elasticity, and texture while diminishing superficial pigmentation and minimizing pore size. This delicate procedure, characterized by minimal downtime and suitability for standalone treatment, ensures the safe treatment of sensitive areas such as the face, neck, chest, and hands.
iPixel laser treatment offers precise control for addressing each scar individually. Additionally, laser pulses can be repeated and ‘stacked’ to penetrate even deeper, effectively targeting microscopic scar tissue. The practitioner can choose between short or long pulses based on the depth of the scar. Beyond ablating the scar itself on a microscopic level, the laser also raises the temperature of the underlying tissue, promoting collagen production and blood flow. This accelerates the healing process, resulting in the replacement of the scarred area with healthy, fresh skin while smoothing out the surface. Therefore, apart from reducing or eliminating the appearance of scars, the increased collagen production tightens the surrounding intact skin, offering the additional benefit of skin resurfacing.
iPixel laser treatment is suitable for all skin types and can be administered throughout the year. Thus, now is the ideal time to address the acne scars you’ve been living with. Typically, significant improvement or complete scar elimination can be achieved in just 2 to 4 bi-monthly treatments, providing long-lasting results
It is crucial to maintain well-moisturized skin during the seven days following treatment. Our physician will discuss the most effective post-treatment moisturizers with you.
Within a few days after treatment, you’ll notice an improvement in your skin’s appearance, with results progressively enhancing over the next few months. The long-term effectiveness of the treatment is influenced by the natural aging process, which varies from person to person. Following your initial treatment course, we recommend a top-up maintenance session every 6 to 12 months for optimal results.
