About fractional laser technology :
It is the latest generation in skin peeling technology. the laser soothes fine lines and wrinkles, evens skin tone, as well as slightly tightens the skin. The laser works to treat and improve the target part of the skin at a time. The laser transmits light in a set of microbeams to the skin, where these microbial beams penetrate under the epidermis and into the blood, which protects the tissues surrounding the Rays from damage, the surrounding tissues inside this beam begin the natural healing process that accelerates the formation of new and healthy tissues and microdermabrasion allows the skin to recover faster with visible results in skin color, texture, fine lines and wrinkles microdermabrasion treatments are effective only when performed in a series/ set of Sessions because each session treats from only 20% to 25% of the skin, the untreated surrounding skin drives the healing process and fills the treatment with healthy and more youthful skin.
