Virginia Fraxel Laser directory information

Virginia Fraxel providers are listed in the following unbiased directory. RealSelf.com does not accept paid directory placements or advertorial in the Virginia doctor directory. The Virginia Fraxel laser providers in this directory are listed according to their level of participation in the community.

The Fraxel Restore Laser treatment is offered by Virginia dermatologists, plastic surgeons, and physicians as a treatment for skin resurfacing, sun damage, age spots, stretch marks, acne scarring, melasma, and wrinkle reduction.

Most Fraxel laser treatments are administered with the use of a topical anesthetic cream to eliminate any discomfort. The Fraxel laser has been shown in studies to eliminate precancerous cells and prevent skin cancer.

What does the Fraxel fractional resurfacing laser do?

The Fraxel Restore Laser is a fractionated Erbium laser, which produces thousands of tiny but deep columns of treatment in the skin, known as microscopic treatment zones, or MTZs.

During treatment, the Fraxel laser penetrates deep into the dermis to eliminate old epidermal pigmented cells. For every microscopic zone the laser targets and treats intensively, it leaves the surrounding tissue unaffected and intact. This "fractional" treatment allows the skin to heal much faster than if the entire area were treated at once, using the body's natural healing process to create new, healthy tighter tissue to replace skin imperfections.

Tips for Virginia Consumers Considering Fraxel Laser Treatment

1. Ask your provider how many Fraxel laser treatments they have performed and who will be performing the procedure.

2. Ask to see before and after photos of your Fraxel laser treatment provider's actual patients.

3. Research the law in Virginia pertaining to cosmetic laser treatments. Is a physician required to be on the premises or nearby during treatment? Policy regarding the presence of a physician varies dramatically by state.

4. Make sure the benefits and risks of Fraxel laser treatment are fully explained to you in a consultation.
