Laser Resurfacing
For centuries the great artists have used fine-tipped brushes to detail the masterpieces we have come to treasure. Like fine art, your skin deserves such precision.

Dr. Michelle Vessely was one of the first physicians in the Northwest to offer Fraxel™ Laser Treatment (FLT), and subsequently to provide Fraxel II Laser Treatments (also called Fraxel: Restore treatments).  Now she is one of the few physicians world wide to offer the Fraxel re:pair laser treatments. The family of Fraxel laser treatments provides patients with the positive benefits of traditional laser resurfacing with little to no down time.

How it works:
With the Fraxel II laser (or Fraxel: Re:store), the spot size of the laser beam is optimized for each energy setting and higher energy settings have resulted in more effective treatments with few side effects. Dr. Vessely is one of the first physicians to offer this advanced treatment. Of course, our patients and staff are thrilled with the results, but they seem equally excited about the new No Blue Dye roller tips that we are now using for all procedures.


Fraxel II laser treatments have revolutionized the aesthetic laser field with the concept of fractional photothermolysis. Up to a million tiny beams of laser energy dot the skin, penetrating to the depths of the dermis. Each incites a response with collagen remodeling and new collagen formation, resulting in tighter skin, smoother skin, with reduction of wrinkles, brown sun spots, melasma and improvement in acne scars. With Fraxel II’s deeper settings, greater results are achieved in fewer treatment sessions.

Best of all, FDA approved Fraxel™ may be used on the face, neck, chest, hands, or anywhere else that shows significant sun damage. Patients can apply make-up immediately after treatment and return to routine activities. For maximum results a series of treatments is recommended. If you have been waiting for a treatment with results like this with little to no downtime, call The Vessely Center to schedule a complimentary consultation. Dr. Vessely will help you on your journey to loving the skin you’re in!

The Fraxel Re:pair laser combines the tried and true results of the CO2 laser in terms of skin rejuvenation, skin tightening, wrinkle reduction and improvement in sun damage with the safety of a fractional laser device. The family of Fraxel lasers has revolutionized skin rejuvenation laser treatments with their fractional devices. You may recall that this treatment approach involves targeting the skin with microscopic beams of laser energy, resulting in significant collagen remodeling without much risk or downtime.


The Fraxel Re:pair laser has taken this technology to the next level. In one treatment, patients can experience significant improvement in deeper wrinkles, acne scarring, tightening lax skin around the eyes or neck, improving sun spots and sun damage. Better yet, we may treat the neck and chest as well (this was not possible with the traditional CO2 devices). Patients may apply makeup as soon as two days after treatment and have temporary erythema or redness which is managed with mineral makeup applications for the first few weeks. Some patients may benefit from a combined treatment of Fraxel II and the Fraxel Repair laser to more effectively target specific needs. Schedule a consultation with Dr. Vessely to determine which treatment approach is best for your particular skin needs.
