Treatment with ablative fractional reserve 2940 stimulates collagen formation, tightens and tones the skin, and removes damaged or hyper-pigmented cells. This treatment is excellent for treating wrinkles, fine lines, age spots, stretch marks, acne scars, and volume loss. However, red, raw skin and swelling are common after treatment.
Results vary and will not be immediately visible after treatment. They will only become apparent as the skin heals and regenerates. After treatment, patients must limit exposure to the sun and use sunscreen to reduce the risk of hyperpigmentation.
The Icon system offers cutting-edge IPL, laser therapies, as well as Skintel™, the industry’s first live melanin reader. These features, developed with safety and efficacy in mind, provide the confidence you need and the results patients want.
This treatment helps:
- Stimulation of collagen production
- Tightening and toning the skin
- Removes damaged or hyper-pigmented cells
- Treats wrinkles, fine lines, and age spots
- Stretch marks
- Acne scars
- Volume loss is restored
What is Icon 2940 Fractional?
The CynosureIcon 2940 Fractional Handpiece is an ablative laser designed to treat fine lines, wrinkles, age spots, brown spots, sun-damaged skin, acne scars, volume loss due to the aging process, and texture irregularities. One treatment is enough to bring visible results.
How does Icon 2940 Fractional work?
This powerful handpiece provides a wavelength of 2940 nm, allowing efficient light absorption by the skin’s water. The emitted laser beam is divided into multiple beams called pixels, which causes selective ablation in micropillars in the skin without damaging the surrounding tissue. The intact, healthy tissue surrounding the target column then induces skin regeneration by promoting the migration of collagen and elastin into the area.
