Total FX
Experience transformative skin rejuvenation with Total FX fractional CO2 surgical laser treatment at American Skin Institute—a state-of-the-art solution for achieving smoother, younger-looking skin. This advanced procedure combines Active FX and Deep FX lasers to target deep wrinkles, scars, sun damage, and uneven texture with precision.
What is the difference between Active, Deep and Total?
- Active FX: Treats superficial skin layers with larger columns, ideal for hyperpigmentation concerns.
- Deep FX: Uses narrower columns to penetrate deeper skin layers, perfect for addressing fine lines, wrinkles, and textural issues.
- Total FX: Is the combination of both Active FX and Deep FX to provide comprehensive treatment for both textural and pigment issues.
Unlike older CO2 lasers, Total FX uses fractionated beams to treat columns of skin rather than whole areas. This technique offers a shorter recovery time and less discomfort during the procedure, while still delivering maximum results in a single treatment. The laser destroys the outer skin layer and heats the underlying skin, stimulating collagen production over time. This results in smoother, tighter skin, improved wrinkles and scars, and faded skin discoloration.
While initial downtime includes redness and peeling, these effects are temporary, and the overall recovery time is much shorter than traditional CO2 lasers. The advanced technology used in Total FX lessens side effects and downtime, allowing you to enjoy the rejuvenating benefits with minimal disruption.
