Want noticeable results for wrinkles and fine lines or skin tone and texture? Here is a single treatment with long lasting results – I’m talking about years.
ActiveFX smoothes out skin irregularities, wrinkles, fine lines, scars and tightens the skin. ActiveFX is a fractional laser procedure, which uses a high energy beam of laser light. The skin is treated through tiny laser pulses, resulting in “bridges” of untouched skin. This untouched skin, initiates a faster healing process. ActiveFX treats areas that are deep in the skin by stimulating the growth of new collagen. This steadily improves the texture of the skin and restores that youthful look.

Anesthetic cream is applied 30 or 40 minutes before the treatment, to eliminate any pain.
The ActiveFX treatment takes less than an hour. Although some pain is experienced, it can rather be described as a mild discomfort. The damaged skin will flake off in 2 days and the pinkness will disappear within a week. There is a 5 day recovery time, after which you can continue with everyday activities. The treatment can also be performed on sensitive parts of the skin, being underneath the eyes and the neck. Click here to watch the procedure (Requires Macromedia Flash Player. Get Flash).

Results from a treatment, including the smoothing of wrinkles, can be seen almost immediately. To prolong your results, ask your Doctor to recommend a good sunscreen. Patients who have undergone the treatment are very happy. I Care for My Body - Aesthetic Centres have also introduced ActiveFX as one of their treatments.

The effects of the treatment become more evident with time, due to the continuous formation of new collagen. Most patients look their best 3 - 5 months after the treatment. Expect to pay $1995, upwards.
