How does the Smartxide DOT work.

Smartxide DOT is a ``fractional`` carbon dioxide laser syatem. Carbon dioxide lasers are the most powerful syatems on the market, capable of amazingly good results. The light associated with carbon dioxide lasers is able top stimulate skin rejuvenation, only hitting small areas in depth thanks to the Smartxide DOT technology. It also does away with the usual rejuvenation side effects such as pain, scabs and swelling.

Does it hurt ? Will I need anaesthetic ?

The only sensation you can expect is a slight ``stinging`` that only lasts a fraction of a second. Compared to traditional treatments with carbon dioxide lasers, the DOT method now enables a significant reduction of after treatment pain. The treatment is safe and effective, meaning that it can be used for every part of your face, neck and hands, even with the finest most delicate skin types.

There is no need for an injection, just an anaesthetic cream for the most sensitive skins.

Who is the Smartxide DOT treatment suitable for ?

The Smartxide DOT treatment is suitable for everyone and all skin types. Special care is only required for those who like tanning often. The treatment is highly effective for deep facial lines, acne scarring, and pigmentation, results are equivalent to a deep chemical peel.

How long does the treatment last ?

Treatments normally last about half an hour.

How many treatments are necessary ?

The results will be visible even after the first session. You can work out a treatment programme with your doctor depending on the severity of your skin defects.

What precautions are necessary after the treatment ?

Thanks to the DOT fractional technology, post treatment redness only lasts a few days and can be easily covered with cosmetics. The only precaution recommended is to use a suitable sunscreen for a short period of time after the treatment.

Are there any unplaesant side effects after the treatment ?

You may experience a sensation similar to what you feel after your first day in the sun on the beach, as well as a slight erythema for a few days. Your doctor will recommend the right creams to use to ensure your skin is moisturised.

When will the first results be visible ?

The majority of patients observed increased skin tone even after the first treatment. You may also notice that your skin marks have faded after one single treatment, though two may be necessary to see these effects. Your doctor will work out the best programme for treating deep wrinkles. Seeing that the laser stimulates the production of collagen you will notice a progressive improvement of your skin for at least six months after your last treatment.

Are the results permanent ?

All the changes in your skin obtained with Smartxide DOT are permanent. Nevertheless, the beneficial effects will gradually diminish with the natural aging process. Remember that smoke, alcohol, excessive exposure to the sun, and poor eating habits all accelerate the aging process.

Can I repeat the treatments ?

There are no contraindications against repeating the treatment programme with Smartxide DOT. In a few years time with just a minimum time investment, you will be able to achieve the results you desire.

Smartxide DOT can do all this, your skin regains its tone during the treatment, and there is a reduction of wrinkles, small and large acne scars, plus those dark pigmented marks on your hands and face.

Smartxide DOT uses a carbon dioxide laser system on an electronically pre-set network of points, without removing the entire skin surface as with other systems.

Skin redness following the treatments only lasts a few days, not months like before, and it can be immediately masked with cosmetics.

Removal of moles, warts and skin tags.

The Smartxide carbon dioxide laser can be used in the ablative mode to help with clearing lumps and bumps on any part of the body with a very aesthetically pleasing result. This gives a much superior result to surgical excision of the above lesions.
