What is the Helix Laser, and How Can It Improve Your Skin?
Posted October 30, 2024
The Helix laser is a type of fractional laser technology designed for skin rejuvenation. Here’s how it works and the potential benefits for your skin:
What is the Helix Laser?
- Fractional Technology: The Helix laser delivers energy fractionally, creating thousands of tiny treatment zones in the skin. This allows for targeted treatment while preserving surrounding healthy tissue.
- Versatile Treatment: It can be used for various skin concerns, including fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, sun damage, and overall skin texture.
How It Improves Your Skin:
- Collagen Stimulation:
- The laser energy stimulates collagen production, which helps improve skin elasticity and firmness over time. This can lead to a more youthful appearance.
- Smoother Texture:
- By treating the skin deeper, the Helix laser can help reduce the appearance of rough patches, scars, and uneven texture, resulting in smoother skin.
- Reduced Fine Lines and Wrinkles:
- The treatment can soften the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, especially around the eyes and mouth, contributing to a more youthful look.
- Minimized Pore Size:
- Regular treatments can help reduce the size of enlarged pores, improving the skin’s overall appearance.
- Even Skin Tone:
- The Helix laser can target pigmentation issues like sun spots and melasma, leading to a more even skin tone.
- Quick Recovery:
- Due to the fractional nature of the treatment, recovery time is generally quicker than with non-fractional lasers, with minimal downtime and less risk of significant side effects.
Treatment Experience:
- Sessions Required: Multiple sessions may be recommended for optimal results, depending on the specific skin concerns being addressed.
- Comfort Level: Many patients report only mild discomfort during the procedure, often described as flashes of heat that are quickly resolved using our cooling system
The Helix laser can be an effective option for improving skin texture, tone, and overall appearance. As always, it’s essential to consult with one of our providers to determine if it’s the right treatment for your specific needs.
