SANTA ROSA BEACH, Fla. ? Steven F. Weiner, MD of the Aesthetic Clinique was approached by Solta Medical, Inc., a nationally renowned medical technology firm, to publish a study on the results of his first 50 patients to undergo a new procedure called Fraxel re:pair. As one of the first 30 doctors in the country to offer this treatment, and the very first on the Emerald Coast, Dr. Weiner gained recognition as one of the top physicians for this method of cosmetic rejuvenation.



The Fraxel re:pair treatment is based on CO2 laser technology, which creates microscopic penetrations in the skin, which ultimately removes about a quarter of the amount of skin that a normal facelift would remove with far less downtime. The removal of these microscopic skin particles causes the skin to contract and tighten, thus erasing lines and wrinkles. The results are dramatic and the cost is minimal as compared to a surgical facelift.

"I had so much damage from baking in the sun as a teen. I absolutely love the results. It lifted things without making me look all tight and shiny. I would tell anyone who was considering a face lift to try this first," says a 50 year old who underwent the procedure by Dr. Weiner seven months ago.

"This is truly the most technologically advanced cosmetic laser ever developed," says Dr. Weiner. "The Fraxel Re:pair laser can virtually eliminate years of sun damage, wrinkles, scars, and other skin problems. It is the Clinique's most popular procedure since we launched it last spring."

Solta Medical, Inc. has been recognized nationally on NBC, Oprah, The Today Show, and Entertainment Tonight for their new age-defying laser and has continued to grow in popularity among doctors' offices and patients across the country. WebMD called Fraxel re:pair "the number one beauty breakthrough of the year," and the New York Post claimed this procedure as the "best quality of life breakthrough," making this laser one of the most innovative advancements in technology ever developed.

The high overall satisfaction of Dr. Weiner's first 50 clients solidified confidence in the treatment and the long term advantages. The most significant findings reported in this study were as follows:

No delayed onset hypopigmentation

Published in February, Solta's white paper publication is now available nationwide.
