Fraxel skin
 resurfacing – your complete guide

 

Suffer from pigmentation, discolouration or frown lines? Fraxel skin
 resurfacing helps replace damaged cells.

What is fraxel skin
 resurfacing?

Fraxel promises to smooth skin tone, soften scars and frown lines and reduce discolouration and pigmentation.

The resurfacing laser creates thousands of microscopic treatment zones, inducing the skin’s natural healing process and replacing damaged cells with fresh, youthful-looking skin.

What to expect?

You will feel a hot prickling sensation before the area is cooled to relieve the discomfort. After the treatment, you may experience redness and swelling, but this diminishes over the next couple of days.

The skin will naturally bronze over the next week or two before flaking like sunburn and revealing fresher-looking skin.

How many treatments do you need?

An average of three to five treatments, spaced about two to four weeks apart, will help the skin gradually improve over the next six months.

Instead of focusing on extreme diet plans , Robyn concentrates on getting fit and healthy. "I think exercise is a really great combat to depression, sadness and generally not feeling good about yourself," she says. "Fitness is where you get your endorphins and how you’re going to make yourself feel empowered. I like kickboxing, swimming and SoulCycle, which is a crazy American trend of cycling in the dark to crazy music. I’m terrible at it. I enjoy yoga as well. "I get into the trends like everyone...
