Non-Surgical Anti-Aging Procedure

Facelifts, neck lifts, abdominoplasty, arm lifts, and other similar procedures have long been performed by removing loose skin to tighten and adjust what remains. Fat and skin would be removed to rejuvenate an area, but the invasiveness of these procedures also meant significant downtime to heal, with scars that took time to fade.

Stunning Results Without Surgery

Today, technological innovations have made it possible to achieve stunning results without the more invasive practice of surgery. The use of light, energy, and waves has completely revolutionized the field of plastic surgery: rather than the traumatic removal of tissue. These innovations harness the body’s own natural healing and regenerative properties to help you look your best. If you are interested in receiving some of the best non-surgical cosmetic treatments around, our NYC Fractora or Morpheus 8 device may be the perfect treatment option for you.

Fractora Before & After

The InMode Fractora

The Fractora system uses radio waves to tighten the skin and was developed primarily for the treatment of the face and neck. Surface-level treatments like Fraxel are limited in their penetration depth, a problem that FaceTite addresses by conducting a current between an electrode on the surface of the skin and a cannula positioned deeper beneath the surface. Fractora is often used in conjunction with FaceTite to produce a full-thickness treatment effect.

Perfect for Deep Wrinkles and Creases: Fractora

The Fractora and Morpheus8 systems use a different approach, employing tiny pins that penetrate the skin at variable depths and then produce the necessary therapeutic radio-frequency energy as the pins penetrate beneath the surface of the skin. Fractora treatments are appropriate for patients with more advanced skin issues like deep wrinkles that surface-level treatments cannot fully resolve.

By avoiding the outermost layer of the skin, Fractora and Morpheus8 are able to avoid the pigmentation issues that can arise following surface-level radio-frequency treatments. Discoloration is minimal, while scars, wrinkles, and even pigmentation issues are effectively reduced. Some skin types can benefit from any of these technologies, but depending on your ethnic background and skin pigmentation, Fractora may be one of the few treatments that can work effectively for you with no visible drawbacks. Darker skinned patients may require pretreatment with a bleaching agent, such as Hydroquinone, in order to avoid hyperpigmentation at the treatment spots.

How Does Fractora Work?

Fractora is an advanced cosmetic treatment that uses a unique technology to firm and tighten loose skin and improve texture and tone. The radiofrequency delivered by the system involves a fixed pin-based technology that penetrates areas of the facial skin. A related treatment, Morpheus 8 allows for changes in the depth of treatment. The scalable depth makes it possible to resurface and restore facial skin more precisely and accurately than other similar systems and is an appropriate treatment for facial skin with more extreme problems. The heat produced by the device is delivered beneath the pigment layers, reducing the risk of pigmentation issues that can occur with skin resurfacing treatments.

Skincare Consultation with Dr. Westreich, NYC

Patients will meet our providers for an initial consultation in Dr. Richard Westreich’s welcoming office space in New York City, where they will conduct a detailed skin analysis. Topics such as your diet, medications and current skincare regimen will be discussed, along with your general self-care rituals such as wearing sunblock and abstaining from smoking. During this time, patients can express their specific skin issues and leave with a comprehensive strategy developed to uniquely address your specific goals, lifestyle, and budget while targeting your skin’s strengths and weaknesses.

Fractora for Hyperhidrosis

Excessive sweating, or hyperhidrosis, is uncomfortable and unpleasant to experience. People living with the condition are constantly seeking long-term treatment to get relief. Fractora, a radiofrequency system, delivers heat-producing energy beneath the skin to treat hyperhidrosis.

Your Genetic Code and Your Facial Skin

The quality of your facial skin and how soon it begins to wrinkle and sag is determined by your genetic makeup. The groundbreaking technology in Fractora makes it possible to treat more skin types and colors without fears about hyperpigmentation. Darker skin tones tend to tan more easily and are more prone to discoloration with laser resurfacing. The Fractora system is effective on those with darker-toned skin, as well as other skin colors.

What to Expect in a Fractora Treatment

Patients report mild discomfort with the treatment, and some patients take pain medication prior to treatment. Lidocaine is administered for your comfort and nerve blocks are done when applicable. Depending upon your pain threshold, we offer various options so your experience is comfortable for you. The procedure takes about one hour to administer.

After Fractora Treatment: Your Recovery

This procedure addresses many deeper and more serious skin problems, including wrinkles, sun damage, and scars. Initially, your skin will appear swollen, which can be managed with cold compresses. The initial redness diminishes in about one to two days. Your facial skin will initially show a grid pattern, and mild crusting is a common side effect. The tiny dots fall off over the following week. Full healing is achieved in about two weeks, with your facial skin appearing fresh, new, even-toned, restored, and rejuvenated.
