What is Fractional Skin Resurfacing?
Table of Contents
Fractional Skin Resurfacing (FSR) is a revolutionary technique that has gained significant traction in the realm of skin revitalisation. It provides a smoother, brighter skin surface and reduces hyperpigmentation. Simultaneously, volumetric deep dermal heating reaches the collagen fibres, causing an immediate and long-term tightening effect, making it an optimal solution for skin rejuvenation from the outside in.
Endymed 3Deep® FSR Technology
Endymed’s 3Deep® FSR technology stands out with its unique approach to skin resurfacing. It uses a matrix of 112 tiny electrodes that simultaneously perform fractional micro-ablation of the epidermis and volumetric heating of the dermis. This multi-layer treatment is effective for ageing skin and atrophic acne scars. The technology differentiates between micro-ablation and dermal heating, ensuring optimal results.
The FSR Handpiece for Spectacular Results
The FSR handpiece is a key component of the 3Deep® FSR technology. It contains a matrix of 112 tiny RF electrodes, each possessing a 300-micron spot size. This technology pushes heat to deeper layers into the skin, allowing simultaneous epidermal resurfacing and volumetric heating of the dermis. The result is improved skin texture and promotion of collagen growth, reducing skin laxity and wrinkles along the way.
Who are the ideal patients for FSR?
FSR is particularly beneficial for individuals experiencing the natural ageing process, which typically begins, albeit slowly at first, in the mid-twenties. It’s also effective for those with premature ageing due to long-term sun exposure, environmental factors, and hereditary and lifestyle factors. FSR can improve various skin conditions, including fine lines, wrinkles, impaired skin pigmentation, texture, and skin tone.
FSR Process and Its Effects
The 3Deep® FSR process modifies the collagen structure for a long-term anti-wrinkle effect. It uses multi-source, radio frequency energy and sophisticated software to deliver controlled heat deep into the skin while preserving the overlying outer layer. The process results in tighter, brighter, smoother skin.
Striking Advantages and Visible Outcomes of FSR
The benefits of FSR are many-fold. It improves skin textural irregularities, tightens sagging skin, softens fine lines and wrinkles, and increases new collagen production. It also reduces brown spots or blotchy skin colouring (hyperpigmentation), diminishes various kinds of scars, including acne scarring, and reduces the prominence of stretch marks.
