How it works

The Syneron eMatrix system is an FDA-approved non-surgical treatment for a wide range of skin concerns. This unique laser platform is touted as one of the most advanced treatments in the field of laser skin resurfacing. Sublative technology is the most commonly used to effectively treat mild to moderate wrinkles, acne scarring and pitting, and other skin irregularities with minimal discomfort and downtime. The treatment involves the delivery of radiofrequency heat using small nodules to penetrate the epidermal layer of the skin. Collagen and elastin are stimulated, and the result is the creation of new healthy skin cells and a more even, softer skin appearance.

What Conditions can Syneron eMatrix Treat?

eMatrix laser skin resurfacing is recommended for the following skin concerns:

  • Abdominal stretch marks
  • Acne scarring
  • Enlarged pores
  • Fine lines and creases
  • Mild to moderate wrinkles
  • Post-inflammatory pigmentation
  • Rosacea
  • Sagging skin

The skin is entirely thoroughly cleansed and dried before the treatment. The settings are adjusted depending on the level of heat desired and depth of penetration. Topical medical grade numbing cream is available for comfort. The entire area is covered with a square-shaped head, and with slight pressure, the heat is delivered. The patient will experience a mild warming or “prickly” sensation during the treatment but is resolved immediately.

Post-Care is required following therapy.

The treatment area will be cleansed and a topical numbing cream will be applied for 45 min to 1 hour prior to treatment. Your technician will cleanse your face and remove all numbing cream. Treatment time is approximately 30 min depending on the area that needs to be treated. You will feel pressure, a slight stinging, itching and a heat sensation. This is normal and will subside 1-2 hours after treatment. Immediately after your treatment you will look and feel as though you have a moderate to severe sunburn. Your skin may feel warm and tighter than usual. This is normal and will subside after 1 to 2 hours. Your technician will prescribe postprocedure skincare to soothe, calm and protect your skin

How does eMatrix help with resurfacing?

During the treatment process, small parts of radio frequency energy are made to pass through the skin layer. The radio frequency energy produces heat which repairs the damaged tissues and stimulates the skin layer to produce collagen naturally which in turn boosts the formation of new skin cells.
