New! Fraxel and Microneedling combination to improve skin tone and sun damage

Fraxel vs Microneedling, which is better?
Most people ask which treatment is better for them. Dr. Shelton says that deciding between these two treatments will depend on each patient’s condition. However, the combination of both treatments is recommended without replacing one with the other, since they can be used to complement one another.

Benefits from Fraxel + Microneedling treatment
Wrinkles, sun spots and sagging skin are part of the aging process. However, these can be improved with the laser technologies used at Dr Shelton’s practice in New York City. Laser technologies are combined with Microneedling to lift the dead skin cells and clogged pores to improve collagen production and tighten the skin. Fraxel or Fractional laser is non-ablative. It is used to improve the sun damaged skin, reduce fine lines and wrinkles and improve skin discoloration. At Laser & Skin Surgery Center of New York you can get this combination of treatments done on the same day.

Patients can achieve a great outcome without complications from this combination of treatments.

Elderly woman not candidate for wound care and downtime after carbon dioxide laser resurfacing had significant improvement in difficult-to-treat upper lip and lower cheek wrinkles after two Infini microneedling with radiofrequency treatments followed immediately after by the application in-office topical Sculptra which is absorbed through the channels of the microneedling to stimulate more collagen production. There was significant reduction of inelasticity and wrinkles and smokers’ lines before the third Infini microneedling treatment.
