Frac3

Skin Rejuvenation

pngguru.com(23a).png

The FRAC3 skin treatment is a non-ablative revolution in skin rejuvenation. FRAC3 utilises Nd.Yag laser to stimulate the skin's natural capacity to rejuvenate by inducing micro wounds in prematurely aged or damaged portions of the dermis and epidermis.

 

In FRAC3, a 3-dimensional matrix of micro-wounds is created through the laser which is concentrated at specific depths of the existing skin damage. The surrounding tissue remains unaffected therefore the treatment intensity is minimised. This treatment achieves a healthy, natural glow without the discomfort and downtime associated with other procedures. FRAC3 is also used to diffuse redness and treat rosacea and pigmentation.

 

This is a safe and non-invasive procedure and often referred to as a "lunch hour laser".

 

Benefits:

  • Targets deep skin imperfections

  • Stimulates collagen to tighten skin

  • Improves texture, tone, wrinkles and spider veins

  • Suitable for even the darkest skin

  • Lengthy sun avoidance not required

Prior to Treatment

 

At Advanced Laser Clinic, we require all our patients to undergo a consultation with our Laser Consultant before their first treatment.

 

At this appointment, we welcome all questions to advance your understanding of the treatment. You will be required to fill a consultation form about your health and medication history that will  assess your eligibility for treatment.

 

A patch test will be performed on your skin prior to the treatment to make sure the laser settings are suitable for you. If we observe no reactions 24 hours after your patch test, we will start the preparation for commencing your treatment.

 

Before you get laser therapy done, it is essential that you keep your treated area away from sun exposure. Your skin needs protection from sun exposure for a minimum of two weeks before any treatment commences and this is required to be followed after the procedure is completed as well. The lasers work on providing a specific heat at a specific depth in your tissue to produce a desired end point. This end point can be exacerbated if exposed to sun and can cause unwanted side effects

Before & After

3 x Frac3 Skin Rejuvenation

  • Is Fotona Laser safe?
    Yes, as the laser treatment is a non-surgical and non-invasive process which makes use of multi-laser technology., it is clinically proven to be safe for all skin types. Apart from this, it has minimal to no downtime and produces satisfactory results.
  • Do you offer numbing for Laser hair removal?
    Unfortunately, topical numbing creams are not safe nor effective when doing Laser Hair Removal. The sensation you feel in treatment is not felt on the skin, but in the follicle of the hair. Unfortunately numbing cream cannot penetrate deep enough to minimise the discomfort that may be felt at the follicle. Please ensure that no occlusive creams are present in the treatment areas when undergoing laser hair removal treatments.
  • What areas are included in a Full Body Laser Hair Removal?
    A Full Body Laser Hair Removal includes every part of your body except the head.
  • Can I have my treatment when I am menstruating?
    Yes - you can still have laser hair removal treatment while on your period. We advise you to wear a tampon or menstrual cup if you would like to have the Brazilian area treated.
  • Can I have Laser hair removal if i have Epilepsy?
    Epilepsy sufferers are advised to consult with their doctor about having Laser Hair Removal. An individual will need to obtain medical clearance from their doctor prior to starting treatment. At Laser Clinics Australia, we also offer various options of protective eyewear to ensure your safety at all times during treatment.
  • What kind of results can I expect?
    A majority of patients who undergo this treatment see an 80-90% reduction in their hair growth. and the hair follicles that remain after treatment are damaged, meaning that they will produce a finer hair than before treatment. In the weeks following the laser treatment, you will be noticing less hair, slower-growing hair, and even hair falling out. There is also a reduction in hair bumps and ingrown hairs after your first treatment. It is important to apply moisturizers and cool compresses immediately after the treatment if you feel any discomfort in the treated area. Following the treatment, overall you should be able to see a loss of hair over the month. It is recommended to use sunscreen whenever you step out. Although there are some complications that may occur with the process of laser hair removal, as it is with any medical procedure, these are usually minor and rarely occur. Any possible effects of laser hair removal will be reviewed by your clinician during your consultation.
  • Pre & post care for laser hair removal treatments.
    - You are required to shave the entire area you wish to get treated prior to the day of your laser hair removal treatment. - Avoid using exfoliators such as alpha beta hydroxyl acid, alcohol toners or any other creams which might be irritating, for one-week before your laser hair removal treatment. - Do not apply any perfumes, deodorants or any type of makeup to the area to be treated on the day of your treatment. - Do not go for any artificial tanning such as tanning beds and spray tans within 2-3 weeks prior to your treatment. - After your hair removal treatment, you may experience the growth of hair for up to two weeks. However, this is only the treated hair that is being shed from the follicle. - Following your laser hair removal treatment, you will likely experience slight redness and swelling around the hair follicles and some mild discomfort, mostly similar to sunburn. Cool packs may be applied. - You may observe during and after your session the smell of burned hair. However, this is normal. - It is essential to avoid swimming pools and spas treated with chemicals or chlorine until the skin returns to its normal condition. - Until the skin returns to normal condition, you must not have any facials or peels on any treated facial areas. - If the underarm area is being treated, do not use deodorant for 24 to 48 hours. - Following the treatment, do not rub, or pick the area which is treated. Use of loofahs or abrasive scrubs is prohibited for at least 5 days. - Do not practice any strenuous sport activities and any hot water, saunas or jacuzzi for 3 days. - In case a crust develops on the treat area, use aloe Vera twice daily to keep it moist until it gets healed. - If you notice any signs of infection or blistering in the treated area, contact us. - Use sunblock SPF 30 or 50 to protect the skin before and after all treatments.
  • Scheduling your next treatment.
    - Shaving is recommended between sessions and 1 or 2 days prior to your next appointment. - The sessions of the facial area treatment are scheduled in four week intervals and four to six weeks for other areas. - Disrupting or missing the appointments can cause less than optimal results. - Between the schedule of treatments, you should not undergo Electrolysis, waxing, threading or tweezing. Avoid tweezing between sessions, however, shaving can be done..
