ActiveFX™ Q & A

What is skin resurfacing?

Skin resurfacing is an aesthetic treatment that aims to reduce the signs of aging. The team at Tayani Institute use the Active FX™ laser for skin resurfacing treatments. This advanced laser system is equipped with a fractional carbon dioxide laser that gently removes the top layer of your skin to uncover the healthy, younger skin underneath.

After skin resurfacing, your skin may appear red and flaky for up to a week, but this treatment requires very little downtime. You should start to notice an improvement in your skin as the old skin comes off, revealing your younger, fresher skin.

Ablative skin resurfacing procedures use lasers to reduce the signs of aging, improve skin texture, flexibility and tone and reduce scars and stretch marks. Ablative resurfacing is ideal for patients seeking a dramatic improvement in a single session.

What is ActiveFX™?

ActiveFX™ is a fractional resurfacing procedure using the Lumenis™ ULTRApulse Alpha CO2 laser system. This advanced laser system is equipped with a fractional carbon dioxide laser that creates microscopic channels triggering new collagen and elastic fibers production, while leaving some unaffected skin tissue in-between the channels, which accelerates healing. The result is deep dermal regeneration that reduces the signs of aging, dramatically improving your skin elasticity, texture and appearance.

What are the benefits of ActiveFX™?

Multiple factors like aging, sun exposure and others are changing our skin throughout the years. These may lead to various skin conditions that affect not only how we look, but also how we feel about ourselves. ActiveFX™ is a unique, state of the art treatment that changes the effects of deep and superficial wrinkles, dyschromia, sunspots and additional skin lesions.

ULTRApulse® Alpha CO2 ablative technologies enable a high rate of improvement for skin damage and skin tone with minimal downtime. This is due to their unique pulse technologies and tailored treatment modes.

ActiveFX™ offers a complete laser blepharoplasty solution that combines an incisional solution with complementary eyelid resurfacing. With laser assisted incisions, bleeding during the procedure as well as post-surgery bruising are reduced.

DeepFX™ dramatically decreases acne scars, even very deep and old ones, as well as repairs damaged skin and improves skin tone.

How does it work?

The treatment creates microscopic channels that trigger new collagen and elastic fibers production, while leaving some unaffected skin tissue in between the channels, which accelerates healing.

The result is deep dermal regeneration that dramatically improves your skin elasticity, texture and appearance. The unique power and precision of ULTRApulse® Alpha enable your provider to customize the treatment for your specific skin concerns and needs, while maintaining optimal comfort and healing time.
