Radiofrequency devices challenging laser resurfacing

Laser resurfacing has, for over a decade, been the best way of treating wrinkled aging skin. Ten years ago, the procedure was messy: 10 days of oozing and bleeding was a common problem.

Today, fractional lasers like Solta’s Fraxel Repair and Sciton’s ProFractional have led to great results and a much quicker healing time. Lasers produce their greatest effect on the surface of the skin; the effect lessens as the laser penetrates deeper into the skin. This approach is now being challenged by Syneron with its new eMatrix radiofrequency device.

The eMatrix is also a fractional wrinkle erasing device. However, unlike lasers, radiofrequency devices produce a greater effect in the deeper layers of the skin- where the wrinkles are. We are doing some of the major research on the revolutionary new Syneron eMatrix device. With the economy improving, and more people seeking non-invasive cosmetic treatments, eMatrix represents an exciting new way to deal with aging skin.
