FAQ:
Wrinkle Reduction
(WRA Applicator)
How does Wrinkle Treatment with elos WRA Applicator work?
The WRA combines safe and effective levels of laser and radiofrequency (electric
current) energies to remodel the dermal layer of the skin by stimulating new
collagen growth, creating a smoother and softer appearance. Both laser and radiofrequency
have been used separately for decades in medicine and surgery, but the WRA exclusively
combines light and radio-frequency energy for ideal treatment outcomes with
a very low risk of side effects and virtually no down-time.
What results can
one expect from the WRA Applicator treatment?
The WRA can improve textural irregularities in the skin due to loss of collagen
in the dermis such as: non-dynamic moderate wrinkles, enlarged pores, superficial
acne scarring, rough skin texture, and skin laxity of the face and neck. This
is done non-ablatively, which means that this is a non-invasive procedure. Most
people leave the treatment office with only slight pinkness or no pinkness at
all, they can return to work immediately.
How many treatments
are required?
Most patients will have between 3-5 treatments.
How frequently does
one need WRA Applicator treatments?
Treatment sessions are typically 3-4 weeks apart.
How is WRA Applicator
treatment tolerated by the patient?
The sensation may be described as a hot pinch, like someone snapping
an elastic band on your skin. Patients tolerate treatment well by use of either
cooling the skin during treatment and/or use of a topical anesthetic cream that
numbs the skin.
Is treatment with
the WRA Applicator safe?
ANY medical laser procedure has risk of side effects such as superficial blistering,
crusting, and pigmentary changes in the skin. These risks are rare and usually
quickly resolved. The WRA incorporates several technological advances that focus
on patient safety to minimize these risks and provide greater satisfaction.
The laser handpiece is also cooled for skin protection and comfort during the
procedure.
Who should be treated
with the WRA Applicator?
Anyone with unwanted moderate wrinkles, superficial acne scarring, enlarged
pores, or rough skin texture from chronic sun-damage. Pigmentation from chronic
sun-damage may also improve over the series of treatments. Dynamic wrinkles
such as between the brows or deep folds near the mouth/nose are not realistic
indications for WRA treatment.
