ActiveFX™ Testimonials
I am ecstatic with the results. A single treatment, in-office - nand one week later I look 10 years younger.
Cindy Geers, Cincinnati, Ohio
I couldn't be happier with the results from my ActiveFX procedure. The procedure only took 20 minutes and I hardly had any downtime. My face looks flawless; all of my sun spots and moles have disappeared. The skin over my eyelids and under my chin is noticeably tighter, and my pores are now smaller. I feel rejuvenated, and recommend this procedure to everyone.
Allison Woods, Columbus, Ohio

What is ActiveFX™? 
ActiveFX is a fractional laser procedure performed in a single treatment with minimal patient downtime. During the procedure, a high-energy beam of laser light is used to smooth out lines, wrinkles and scars, remove brown spots and other irregularities, and tighten the skin. It also stimulates formation of new underlying collagen to continue improvement over time. With fractional laser treatment, only a fraction of the skin’s surface is treated by the laser, leaving small “bridges” of untouched skin. This technique makes the healing process much faster and enables you to get back to normal activities sooner.
What are the benefits of ActiveFX?
ActiveFX treatment produces a dramatic effect on the skin:
• Causes immediate skin tightening
• Reduces wrinkles and fine lines, and softens deeper frown lines
• Noticeably improves skin tone and texture
• Stimulates new collagen formation and plumps the skin
• Restores the skin to a healthy youthful-looking state
The results of ActiveFX laser treatment are long-term
and, with proper sun protection, can persist for many
years. Most effects of treatment become visible right
away, whereas others – such as new collagen forma-
tion, which leads to continued inner tightening – build
up gradually and become more evident over time.
Therefore, most people look even better 3-5 months
after the procedure.

Fraxel repairs sun damaged skin. Fraxel also repairs scars


UltraPulse® Encore ActiveFX Treatment

ActiveFXTM Laser Resurfacing

The UltraPulse Encore CO2 laser resurfacing device offers a new treatment, ActiveFXTM, which is an "erbium-like" peel with reduced downtime. This treatment can improve mild cosmetic flaws more gently, providing the benefits of advanced technology without the prolonged healing times that are often associated with other CO2 laser treatments. If you have less photodamage, or desire a quicker recuperation, you may choose this ActiveFXTM treatment for a more "superficial" peel.

Patient Benefits

The ActiveFXTM treatment is used to eliminate evidence of sun damage such as wrinkles, discoloration, and improve depressions in skin due to acne scars. It provides a novel, less invasive approach for treating these skin conditions. ActiveFXTM is a fractional laser procedure performed in a single treatment and typically takes about 30 minutes to treat the entire face. Patients can anticipate a healing time of about 5 days, and they will begin to notice their desired results. Improvement in the skin's tone and texture will continue to improve months after their treatment with the proper care of their skin such as avoiding the harmful effects of sunlight.

How it works

During the treatment, abnormal tissue will be removed and will stimulate new collagen growth with only one pass of the laser beam. This will also provide better elasticity and support for the skin. The ActiveFXTM treatment's setting targets and vaporizes water in the cells of the uppermost layer of skin, revealing fresher, younger-looking skin.
The ActiveFXTM treatment is performed in our office on an outpatient basis. Oral medications and topical anesthetics are administered to alleviate any discomfort associated with the procedure. www.erasemyscars.com
The specific risks and suitability of the ActiveFXTM Laser treatment for a given individual are determined at the consultation. All procedures carry some degree of risk and minor complications. Major complications are rare.
The ActiveFXTM treatment treats dyschromias, comedones, clogged pores, fine lines, fine wrinkles, and tightens the skin.
