Fraxel 1550

Product operations

Until recently, most lasers treated the skin with high power levels and macroscopic spots. The problem with this approach is that healthy tissue is also damaged. In addition, there was no technological intelligence for controlling the amount of thermal injury to the skin.

Reliant’s approach is based on the theory of "Fractional Photothermolysis", developed by Drs. Rox Anderson and Dieter Manstein of Harvard's Wellman Laboratories in collaboration with Dr. Scott Herron and Len DeBenedictis, of Reliant Technologies.

Partially treating the skin (=Fractional) with patterns of microscopic laser spots, each 70 to 100 µm in diameter, results in a unique wound healing process, as each laser spot is surrounded by healthy tissue. Many of the stem cells and melanocytes in the papillary dermis are spared. Fractional wound healing results in both rapid re-epithelisation as well as collagen re-modelling.

The Fraxel 1550 has been developed by Reliant Technologies – a team of prominent laser scientists, clinicians and biomedical engineers. Fraxel 1550 combines patented optical technology with unique software.

the combination of one the one hand, consistent dosage control with optimised spot size for each energy setting, with on the other hand, variable spot density, allows the operator to adjust both the depth (to 1.4mm) as well as the aggressiveness of the treatment to the patient and indication. This technological edge provides the patient with the best option for non-invasive treatment of indications ranging from mild sun damage to serious acne scars.
