Located on the Upper East Side of NYC, Dr. Howard Sobel offers Fraxel Restore Dual Repair, a proven treatment to repair skin damage and reveal a healthier, more radiant complexion. Revitalize your skin post-summer with Fraxel Laser for a flawless, refreshed look this fall at Sobel Skin in NYC.
Erase the Signs of Sun Damage
Fraxel targets and reduces age spots/sun spots, acne scars, and other forms of sun damage that can accumulate in NYC’s intense sun over the summer months. This laser technology penetrates deep into the skin to encourage collagen production and cell turnover, leaving your skin smoother, clearer, and rejuvenated.
What to Expect from the Fraxel Laser Procedure
At Sobel Skin in NYC, Fraxel is a noninvasive laser treatment that targets damaged skin cells without affecting the surrounding tissue. You may experience mild discomfort during the procedure, but a topical anesthetic is applied beforehand to minimize pain. Patients typically report a sensation similar to a mild sunburn post-treatment, with redness or pinkness that subsides within a few days. The experienced team at Sobel Skin ensures you are comfortable throughout the procedure and follow-up care.
Prevent and Treat Precancerous Lesions
Beyond cosmetic improvements to sun damage, Fraxel can also help treat actinic keratoses caused by sun exposure and UV damage. If left untreated, they can develop into a type of skin cancer. This treatment also helps decrease the development of new skin lesions. For New Yorkers who spend long summer days outdoors, this treatment is essential for cosmetic and health benefits.
Why Fall is the Perfect Time for Fraxel Laser
With less sun exposure in the fall, your skin has the time to heal and recover after the procedure. Since Fraxel makes your skin highly sensitive to UV rays, avoiding direct sun exposure for at least three months following the treatment is essential. Additionally, patients are advised to wear a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least 30 SPF daily to protect their new, delicate skin. The cooler months provide a natural buffer, allowing your skin to heal optimally while minimizing the risk of further damage from the sun.
As the seasons change in New York City, now is the perfect time to refresh and repair your skin. Fraxel laser treatments improve the appearance of sun damage and help prevent long-term skin health issues. Whether you’re looking to restore your complexion or take preventive measures against skin cancer, Dr. Howard Sobel and his team guide you toward healthier, more radiant skin. Book your consultation today and visit us at Sobel Skin on the Upper East Side to take the first step toward revitalized skin this fall.
