Skin Rejuvenation with DermaFrac

Your skin is made up of 3 layers – the Epidermis which is a tough outer layer, the Dermis which is the thick inner layer and the Subcutaneous, which is the inner most layer. As the skin ages and the effects of sun, wind and pollution accumulate, the Epidermis losses its freshness and suppleness. The Dermis begins to lose its resilience and elasticity, leading to the development of wrinkles. And the Subcutaneous layer loses tissue which causes the skin to sag and makes the wrinkles more pronounced. DermaFrac is a hand held device that is used to repair the damage to the skin and help it to regain its glow and youthful appearance.

DermaFrac is a precision device that uses hundreds of micro-needles on a roller pad to deliver different serums under the skin to the junction between the Epidermis and Dermis. The micro channels it creates delivers the serum to where it is most effective in reducing the signs of age and skin damage. DermaFrac stands out from other procedures because it eliminates:

  • Heat issues and the expense and complications of laser treatments.
  • The need to deliver the serum separately into the skin.
  • The need for anesthesia during the procedure.
  • The risk to darker skin types that is often present with other treatments.

How It Works

DermaFrac is a non-surgical procedure that is almost painless and can be done in a doctor’s office. The device is loaded with up to 4 different topical solution or serums. The types and combination will depend on the nature of the condition being treated. As the device moves over the skin that is being treated, the micro-needles almost painlessly penetrate the skin to deliver the combination of serums / topical solutions to where they will be most effective. Depending on the severity of the problem, multiple treatments may be required.

What DermaFrac Can Treat

DermaFrac can be used to treat skin aging, pigmentation issues, wrinkles and fine lines, acne scarring, sun damage and open pores, and congested skin.

The Benefits

  • The procedure takes only 30 minutes and can be done in the doctor’s office.
