When might New Orleans patients consider Fraxel® laser therapies?

By

As technologies continue to advance, patients are beginning to notice the tremendous benefits that lasers can provide when it comes to transforming the skin. Dr. Mary Lupo, of New Orleans, offers a variety of laser therapies to her patients, including Fraxel®. Fraxel® is perfect for assisting patients with troublesome conditions and cosmetic concerns including:

• Scarring
• Age and sun spots
• Freckles
• Hyperpigmentation
• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Melasma

Fraxel has become such the good standard for correction of cosmetic concerns that some call other lasers “Fraxel.” But just as not all tissue is “Kleenex,” not all fractional lasers are as good as Fraxel®.

Using the Fraxel® technology at the Lupo Center for Aesthetic and Cosmetic Dermatology, the laser penetrates deep within the layers of the skin to stimulate collagen production and improve structural support. In turn, this can not only address the above dermatological issues, but can also firm and tighten the skin, which can reduce the signs of aging. The texture and tone of the skin is also improved, making this an all-around wonderful solution for patients with a variety of skin concerns.

Fraxel® laser therapy has been FDA-cleared for cosmetic improvements of the face and body, and it is an extremely popular service provided through the Lupo Center for Aesthetic and Cosmetic Dermatology. Patients in and around the New Orleans area can schedule a consultation appointment and speak to Dr. Mary Lupo about the benefits this particular therapy can provide. Alternative solutions may be considered, such as chemical peels, injectables, and topical solutions. The best treatment is determined based on the needs of the patients and the severity of their conditions. This requires Dr. Lupo and each patient to complete a thorough evaluation, an examination, and a discussion about medical history and any medication they currently take to determine their candidacy for Fraxel® laser therapy. Patients can work with Dr. Mary Lupo to develop appropriate skin care routines including sun protection.
