Fraxel laser is a revolutionary skin rejuvenation technology that has transformed the way we approach skincare. A favorite of many of Dr. Khiani’s patients, the innovative laser treatment is designed to address a wide range of skin concerns, from fine lines and wrinkles to pigmentation irregularities and acne scars. With its precision and minimal downtime, Fraxel has become a popular choice for individuals seeking to restore their skin’s youthful glow.
How Fraxel Laser Works
Fraxel laser technology uses fractional photothermolysis to target small, precise areas of the skin while leaving surrounding tissue untouched. This approach stimulates the body’s natural healing process, encouraging the production of collagen and elastin, two essential proteins for youthful, healthy skin.
The Fraxel laser treatment involves the following steps:
- Consultation: During your consultation, Dr. Khiani will assess your skin concerns, discuss your aesthetic goals, and determine if Fraxel is the right choice for you.
- Treatment: During the procedure, the Fraxel laser delivers thousands of microscopic laser columns into the skin’s surface. These columns create controlled micro-injuries, promoting collagen regeneration.
- Healing Process: After the treatment, your skin will naturally start to heal itself. Collagen production increases, leading to improvements in skin texture, tone, and overall appearance.
- Results: Over the following weeks and months, you will notice the gradual improvement of your skin. Fine lines and wrinkles diminish, pigmentation evens out, and acne scars become less noticeable.

- Minimal Downtime: While some redness and swelling may occur after the procedure, these effects typically subside within a few days. Many patients return to their daily activities shortly after treatment.
- Long-Lasting Effects: The collagen stimulation initiated by Fraxel can continue to improve the skin’s appearance for several months, leading to long-lasting results.
