LaseMD is a fractional non-ablative laser that benefits the skin by creating micro-channels. It’s via these micro-channels that the production of collagen and elastin is enhanced. This improves the quality of the skin at a deep, cellular level.

A non-ablative laser heats the deep layers of your skin without damaging the surface.

A “fractional” laser treats a fraction of the surface of your skin, rather than all of them. This means you heal faster.

How does LaseMD work?

LaseMD works by heating the deeper layers of the skin to stimulate the production of your body’s collagen and elastin. The controlled heat encourages your body’s natural healing response to restore the tissues and improve the appearance and texture of your skin.
