Tixel

Skin Care

The Tixel® skin treatment is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that uses tiny heated probes to deliver bursts of thermal energy to the skin’s surface called thermo-mechanical ablation technology. This heat energy creates micro-injuries in the skin, which in turn trigger the body’s natural healing process. As the skin heals, it produces new collagen and elastin, which helps to improve the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, acne scars, sun damage, and even melasma. 

Immediately after the Tixel treatment a collagen stimulator is applied to the skin which contains 1,000 different growth factors, 28 types of collagen, elastin, proteins and hyaluronic acid. The application of this product immediately following the treatment aids in the healing process and added anti-aging benefits. 

What Benefits can be achieved with the Tixel?

  • Skin tightening, to improve skin tone and texture
  • Skin rejuvenation (facial skin, neck and décolletage)
  • Acne and acne scarring
  • Lines and wrinkles
  • Eye lift, for sagging eyelids or eye bags
  • Uneven pigmentation and melasma
  • Rosacea
  • Stretch marks

Tixel treatment is ideal for those seeking smoother, more radiant and revitalized looking skin, but who are worried about downtime. The added benefit is that it continues to deliver results that improve over time and can last for several years (as it is your own collagen that produces the effects).

The procedure usually takes about 30 minutes to an hour, and most people require 3-4 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart to achieve optimal results.
