Fractional ablative Cynosure Icon 2940 is designed for correction of moderate-severe photoaging usually in a single treatment.
Non-ablative Cynosure 1540 is a milder laser. It can improve mild to moderate skin damage with little to no downtime. Usually, three treatments are required.
The new 2940 fractional laser removes the deeper fine lines and wrinkles on the skin, even those more resilient lines around the lips known as “smoker’s lines”.
The Cynosure Icon 2940 laser system offers dramatic results that can make you look younger without the risks and lengthy downtime involved with an invasive facelift, other surgeries or aggressive ablative laser treatments. If you want to smooth out those fine lines and wrinkles or repair other skin damage, Dr. Manrique can help you develop a comprehensive treatment plan at NewEraLift.
After a fractional ablative laser treatment, you can go back to your normal routine in approximate 5 days. The patients experience some temporary swelling and crusting following a treatment. Dr. Manrique will recommend to you a personalized post laser skin care routine for optimal results.
