Affirm Laser Treatment Review

Overview

The Affirm Laser Treatment is designed for women who want to eliminate wrinkles, stretch marks or scarring without the down time that if usually required for cosmetic procedures in the doctor's office. This treatment utilizes the patented Combined Apex Plus 1440nm technology to get positive results. The Affirm laser can be used for skin rejuvenation or to treat wrinkles and acne scars. Other types of scarring have also responded well to this treatment. The process is completed in a doctor's office with shorter treatment sessions, less pain and no recovery time required.

Sessions with Affirm Laser Treatment are greatly shortened because there is no need to apply a topical agent before the procedure and few need a topical anesthetic during the session. You might experience some redness (similar to sunburn) and heat radiating from the spot for a few hours afterward. By the next day, you can resume normal activities and during the course of your treatment sessions, you can continue to wear cosmetics. Sunscreen of 30 SPF or higher is strongly recommended while you are undergoing treatment and following Affirm Laser treatment. Most doctors will recommend 3-6 treatments over as many months. Improvements will become quite noticeable by the second month or so.

Product Details

The Affirm Laser Treatment works by applying thousands of specks (also known as pixels) of laser onto the skin. This is what a fractional laser treatment looks like, and it effectively creates a “micro-thermal treatment zone” around the area being treated while the rest of the healthy skin is left alone. By doing this, new collagen growth is stimulated so that the skin looks younger, smoother and wrinkle-free. It can be used on the face, neck, chest, arms and hands. While we could not find flat rates for Affirm Laser Treatment in order to calculate the cost of treatment, it does appear that the full series of sessions could run more than $2,000.

The Good

• The treatment can be effective with, so they claim, fewer side effects than traditional cosmetic surgery.
• Affirm Laser Treatment is becoming more common and easier to find.
• Collagen growth is stimulated, which is a key component in the anti-aging process.

The Bad

• The treatment requires 3-6 sessions before you achieve desired results.
• While there are no stated side effects, you can experience redness and heat from the treated area.
• The cost may be a big drawback for some people.
• This treatment in your doctor's office is less convenient and more time consuming than home treatment options.

The Bottom Line

The Affirm Laser Treatment has been found to be effective for many women in eliminating wrinkles and revealing younger looking skin. The sessions are relatively short and painless with little recovery time required. However, the cost and the inconvenience of scheduling appointments for the treatment have led many women to search for other options that can be done at home. Some reason that if you’re going to go through the trouble of an in-office treatment like Affirm Laser Treatment, you might as well go for something proven like Botox. Of course, maintaining these in-office skin treatments over a long period of time can be costly and time-consuming as well, prompting many to explore the numerous at-home wrinkle fighting options available.
