What is Tixel???
Tixel is a groundbreaking skin resurfacing treatment that uses thermo-mechanical energy to rejuvenate the skin. Unlike lasers or microneedling, Tixel does not use light, radiation, or needles. Instead, it gently delivers controlled heat to the skin’s surface through a titanium tip, stimulating collagen production, tightening skin, and improving overall texture and tone.
Because of its unique mechanism, Tixel offers incredible flexibility. It can be used for both fractional resurfacing to address wrinkles, scars, and pigmentation, and for open channel treatment to enhance absorption of topical serums such as exosomes or growth factors.
What Does Tixel Treat?
Tixel is a versatile treatment that can address a wide range of skin concerns, including:
Fine lines and wrinkles
Uneven texture
Sun damage and pigmentation
Acne scars and other types of scarring
Enlarged pores
Crepey skin on the eyelids, neck, and décolletage
Dull, lackluster complexion
Who Is a Good Candidate for Tixel?
Tixel is safe for almost all skin types and tones, including patients who are not ideal candidates for laser treatments. It is an excellent option for individuals seeking visible skin improvement without the extended recovery associated with traditional resurfacing procedures.
Whether you are looking for a gentle refresh or a more intensive skin rejuvenation program, Tixel can be customized to match your skin’s specific needs.
How Does Tixel Work?
The Tixel handpiece uses a grid of tiny, heated points to deliver precise thermal energy to the skin. When the titanium tip lightly contacts the skin, it creates controlled micro-channels without burning or ablation. This stimulates a healing response that leads to increased collagen and elastin production over time.
Tixel can also be used in “open channel” mode, where the skin is lightly permeabilized, allowing active serums like exosomes, peptides, or hyaluronic acid to penetrate deeply for enhanced skin renewal.
What To Expect During Your Treatment
After a thorough consultation, a topical numbing cream is applied for maximum comfort. During the procedure, you will feel a series of warm pulses on the skin but minimal pain. The session typically lasts between 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the size of the area treated.
Following your treatment, your skin will appear pink to red, similar to a mild sunburn. Swelling and redness typically subside within a few days, and most patients return to normal activities quickly. Gentle skincare and sun protection are essential during recovery.
Results continue to build gradually as new collagen forms, with the most noticeable improvements appearing after a series of treatments.

FAQ's
Is Tixel safe for all skin types?
Yes. Tixel is safe for a wide range of skin tones and types, including patients with darker complexions who may not be candidates for traditional laser resurfacing.
How many Tixel treatments will I need?
We typically recommend a series of three to four treatments spaced four to six weeks apart for optimal results. Maintenance treatments can be scheduled once or twice per year depending on your goals.
Does Tixel hurt?
Most patients describe Tixel as feeling warm or slightly prickly during treatment. Topical numbing cream is used beforehand to ensure your comfort throughout the session.

You can expect mild redness and swelling for two to five days following treatment. Most patients can apply mineral makeup and resume normal activities after 48 hours.
When will I see results from Tixel?
You may notice an initial glow within the first week. However, collagen remodeling takes time, and full results typically develop over four to six weeks following each session.
Can Tixel be combined with other treatments?
Yes. Tixel is highly effective when combined with treatments like microneedling, exosome therapy, and customized skincare regimens. During your consultation, we will design a treatment plan tailored specifically to your needs.
Is Tixel better than laser or microneedling?
Tixel offers many of the same benefits as fractional lasers and microneedling but with less downtime and without the risks associated with light-based therapies. It is an excellent choice for patients seeking natural, gradual skin rejuvenation.
