Palomar PaloVia Skin Renewing Fractional Home Laser Review

I spoke briefly a few videos back about my Palomar PaloVia Skin Renewing Fractional Home Laser and wanted to share some information about this interesting in home skin renewing laser system.

I have been using it for about 2 weeks so far and it is really hard to say exactly how it's working because at this point I am using it every day and it does beat up the skin to some degree causing a mild sunburned looking effect that for me I find tends to irritate the area and cause a bit of swelling and of course redness. Once I am done my full month cycle of everyday use and let the skin take a rest, I will really know if there is a significant improvement or not. By the way after the full month of everyday use, I will only be required to use the Palomar PaloVia Home Laser only twice per week on each area I plan to treat.

Keep in mind the Palomar PaloVia Laser is intended to be used for the under the eyes and crows feet areas but many people have used the PaloVia Laser for other areas of their face. I have also been using mine on my forehead wrinkles.

If you're interested in the next best device (since the PaloVia is no longer for sale), then checkout the Tria Age-Defying Laser system.

Here is some more info about the PaloVia Skin Renewing Fractional Laser taken directly from their website:

What is the PaloVia Skin Renewing Laser?
The first FDA-cleared, at-home laser clinically proven to reduce fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes.

What are the advantages of using the PaloVia laser?
The PaloVia laser allows you to proactively reverse the signs of aging – in the privacy and comfort of your own home. No costly appointments. No travel time. Just 3 - 4 minutes a day, whenever it works for you.

Who developed the PaloVia laser?
Palomar Medical Technologies, Inc., a leading manufacturer of cosmetic lasers for dermatologists and plastic surgeons.

How does the PaloVia Skin Renewing Laser work?
Unlike lotions and creams, which are most effective on the skin's outer layer, the PaloVia laser also works below the surface where wrinkles form. It generates short pulses of micro-fine laser light that penetrate deeply into the skin's sub-layers, treating the skin's aging support structure. Then the body's natural healing process sweeps away older, damaged tissue and rebuilds it with fresh, new collagen and elastin, helping skin look smooth and youthful.

What is non-ablative fractional laser technology?
Non-ablative fractional lasers generate short pulses of micro-fine light, which can be manipulated by size, energy, spacing and depth. Unlike ablative lasers, which remove the top layer of skin and part of the sub-layer, non-ablative fractional lasers keep the outer layer of skin in place, for faster healing and recovery.

How does the PaloVia Skin Renewing Laser compare to professional treatments?
