CELLUDERM Fraxel C02 is a revolutionary laser treatment that helps you to remove years from your appearance.

This promotes rapid healing by stimulating your body’s own natural healing process and collage production. The result? Fraxel reveals your natural radiance by replacing the old and damaged cells with fresh, glowing, healthy skin.
