The quest for youthful, glowing skin has always been at the forefront of dermatology, and today, advances in laser technology make it more attainable than ever. One such breakthrough is the Multifrax laser, a skincare tool developed by Dr. Tankovich in the ’90s. Initially introduced to minimise tissue injury while stimulating a robust healing response, the Multifrax laser has evolved over the years to become a versatile and effective solutions for skin rejuvenation. Now compact, weighing only 300 grams, this laser offers powerful results with minimal downtime—changing the way we approach skincare in modern clinics.
At Ang Skin & Hair Clinic in Singapore, we are proud to bring you this technology, designed to enhance skin texture, treat pigmentation, and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. With its dual-wavelength capabilities—1927nm and 1550nm—the Multifrax laser delivers impressive results across various skin concerns.
The Multifrax laser stands apart from traditional laser treatments because it emits two wavelengths simultaneously through a single tip, without the need for handpiece or applicator changes. This seamless dual-action capability allows it to treat both superficial pigmentation and deeper skin tightening concerns in one session. What makes this technology unique is the way it utilises fractional radiation to target only a small portion of the skin at a time, while leaving the surrounding healthy tissue intact.
The 1927nm wavelength specifically targets superficial skin concerns, such as melasma, age spots, sun damage, and freckles. It penetrates the skin’s upper layers to break down pigmentation, allowing your body to naturally eliminate these pigmented cells. Over time, this process results in a brighter, and even skin tone, making it perfect for anyone struggling with dark spots or uneven skin colour.
The 1550nm wavelength works deeper within the skin, focusing on collagen production and skin tightening. By delivering heat to the deeper layers, it stimulates the body’s natural healing process, encouraging the regeneration of new collagen and elastin fibres. This results in firmer, smoother skin, with a reduction in fine lines, wrinkles, and even acne scars. Whether you’re looking to restore elasticity or smooth out rough texture, the 1550nm wavelength is an ideal solution for long-lasting skin rejuvenation.
The magic of the Multifrax laser lies in its use of fractional laser technology, which allows for targeted treatment with minimal tissue damage. It delivers laser energy in tiny spots, creating microthermal zones within the skin. These zones stimulate the body’s natural healing response, where surrounding healthy tissue releases chemokines and cytokines—proteins that play a key role in tissue repair. This approach ensures that while only a fraction of the skin is treated at a time, the results are impactful, promoting faster healing with fewer side effects.
Because the Multifrax laser is non-ablative, it delivers thermal effects to the skin without causing any removal or destruction of tissue. This makes the procedure much less invasive compared to traditional ablative lasers, which often involve longer recovery times. The result is a treatment that offers significant improvements in skin tone, texture, and firmness, all while minimising the risk of scarring or prolonged downtime.
The Multifrax laser has transformed the way we treat various skin concerns, making it one of the most comprehensive skincare solutions available today. Here’s how it can help:
One of the most popular uses for the Multifrax laser is its ability to reduce fine lines and wrinkles. The dual-wavelength technology stimulates collagen production deep within the skin, smoothing out wrinkles and plumping the skin for a more youthful appearance. This makes it an ideal treatment for anyone looking to refresh their skin without the need for invasive surgery.
With its 1927nm wavelength, the Multifrax laser is highly effective at treating pigmented lesions such as melasma, sunspots, and freckles. These common skin issues, often exacerbated by sun exposure, can be difficult to manage with topical treatments alone. The laser breaks down excess melanin in the skin, helping to lighten dark spots and create a uniform complexion.
If sagging skin or loss of elasticity is a concern, the 1550nm wavelength can help tighten and firm your skin. By promoting collagen remodelling, it lifts and plumps the skin, restoring a youthful bounce. Over time, you’ll notice a smoother, more contoured appearance, with improvements in skin texture and tone.
Multifrax laser treatments are quick and minimally invasive, typically taking between 30 to 60 minutes depending on the area being treated. Most patients describe the sensation as warm but comfortable.
After the treatment, you may experience mild redness and swelling, similar to a light sunburn. This usually subsides within a few hours to a couple of days. Some patients may also notice slight peeling as the skin renews itself, but this is part of the natural healing process. With each session, your skin will appear brighter, tighter, and more youthful.
For best results, a series of 3 to 4 treatments is recommended, spaced about 4 weeks apart. However, many patients begin to see improvements after just one session.
The Multifrax laser offers a range of benefits that make it a standout choice for skin rejuvenation:
The Multifrax laser is a tool in skincare that combines the power of fractional laser technology with the versatility of dual-wavelength treatment.
