What Is HELIX?

HELIX is an advanced laser resurfacing platform that combines two powerful technologies:

  • Fractional CO2 laser resurfacing
  • Non-ablative fractional laser rejuvenation

Unlike traditional laser systems that rely on only one technology, HELIX allows providers to use either treatment independently or combine them for comprehensive skin rejuvenation. This creates highly customizable treatments capable of addressing both superficial skin concerns and deeper collagen remodeling.

Fine Lines and Wrinkles

Stimulates collagen remodeling while resurfacing damaged skin.

Acne Scars

Improves skin texture and softens the appearance of acne scarring.

Sun Damage

Addresses photodamage, pigmentation irregularities, and age spots.

Skin Laxity

Promotes firmer, tighter-looking skin through collagen stimulation.

Enlarged Pores

Refines skin texture and minimizes pore appearance.

Uneven Skin Tone

Improves overall skin clarity and complexion.
