Technology of Fraxel and Scar Removal

Thick, deep, and inflexible, burn scars such as those shared by the Berns triplets are the most difficult skin wounds to treat, and although physicians and scientists have worked for years seeking out new treatment options, including other lasers, nothing has been effective on these severe burn scars until now.

The new “secret weapon” in treating scars is Lumenis' UltraPulse TotalFX laser. Commonly used for other cosmetic conditions such as deep wrinkles and unwanted pigment, discovered that this system could also be used to treat burn scars. The UltraPulse laser uses two different methods of treating the skin as well as a unique delivery to stimulate new collagen growth, lighten dark colors on the scar and remove some of the scar tissue.

"We literally take the scar out, and as a result new collagen is stimulated and formed.  We not only improve the scar — we create new healthy skin where there was a scar. We are able to treat scars that we were never able to treat before."

  1. I personally have acne scars on my face and I want to get rid of them as soon as possible. That's why, I'm seriously thinking to undergo a fraxel Toronto treatment. This cosmetic procedure seems to be a very good method for acne scar removal these days. I hope it will work well for me too! Wish me luck!
