Tixel® Skin Resurfacing Treatment

Tixel® is an advanced skin resurfacing treatment that delivers stunning results with minimal downtime. Tixel® harnesses the power of thermal energy to stimulate collagen production, improve skin texture, and reduce fine lines, wrinkles and pigmentation- without the discomfort and extended recovery time of traditional lasers. 

This cutting-edge technology is safe for all skin types and can be used on the face, neck, and even delicate areas like the eyelids. Whether you’re looking to refresh dull skin, minimize pores, or improve acne scars, Tixel® provides a gentle yet highly effective solution. Enjoy smoother, firmer, and more youthful skin with a treatment that works with your body’s natural healing process. 

tixel® is highly effective at treating

  • Sun Damage
  • Age Spots
  • Acne & Acne Scars
  • Hyperpigmentation
  • Wrinkles & Fine Lines
  • Redness & Rosacea
  • Dull Tone & Skin Vibrancy

Key Benefits of Tixel® Skin Resurfacing:

Reveal smoother, younger-looking skin without lasers, needles, or lengthy downtime. Tixel® offers a gentle yet effective method of skin renewal:

  • Stimulates Collagen Production: Encourages natural skin renewal for firmer, plumper skin
  • Reduces Fine Lines & Wrinkles: Smooths the signs of aging with each session
  • Improves Skin Texture & Tone: Softens rough patches and refines uneven areas
  • Minimizes Pores & Acne Scars: Helps fade imperfections and enhances clarity
  • Safe for All Skin Types: Suitable for delicate areas, including eyelids and neck
  • Minimal Downtime: Patients usually return to normal activities within 1-2 days

How Tixel® Skin Resurfacing Works

Tixel® uses Thermo-Mechanical Action (TMA®), a cutting-edge technology that transfers controlled heat through a titanium tip to the skin’s surface, triggering the body’s natural healing response.

This process:

  • Gently ablates the upper skin layers
  • Stimulates fibroblast activity and collagen remodeling
  • Improves skin elasticity, tone, and texture
  • Enhances absorption of topical skincare post-treatment

The Tixel® procedure does not rely on light or radiation, making it safer for all skin tones and ideal for sensitive treatment zones like around the eyes.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Tixel®?

Tixel® is a versatile skin rejuvenation option for patients who want visible improvements without harsh procedures. You may be a great candidate if you’re seeking to improve:

  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Acne and acne scarring
  • Enlarged pores or rough texture
  • Sun damage and pigmentation
  • Redness or uneven tone
  • Loose or dull skin around the face, neck, or eyes

A W Aesthetics and Wellness consultation will determine the best treatment settings for your unique skin needs.

What to Expect During the Treatment

Here’s what a typical Tixel® session looks like:

  • Consultation & Skin Evaluation: We assess your skin goals and determine your customized settings (ablative vs. non-ablative approach).
  • Treatment: Numbing cream can be used to provide comfort. The Tixel® device gently stamps the skin, delivering controlled millisecond heat per pulse.
  • Mild Redness & Warmth: Most patients describe the sensation as warm, with minimal discomfort.
  • Post-Treatment Glow: Expect slight redness, dryness, or flaking that typically resolves in 24-72 hours, depending on the intensity of your treatment.

Sessions are fast, typically 15-30 minutes, and many patients return to work or social activities within a day.

What Is the Cost of Tixel® Treatments?

Treatment pricing varies based on the area(s) treated and the number of sessions needed. We provide a customized plan and transparent pricing during your consultation at W Aesthetics and Wellness. We’ll guide you through your options and ensure you’re comfortable every step of the way.

How many Tixel® treatments will I need?

While results can be seen after one session, it is recommended that 3-5 sessions be spaced 4-6 weeks apart for best results.

Most patients experience minimal downtime, some redness or light flaking for 1-3 days, depending on treatment intensity.

The Tixel® treatment is safe for all skin types since it doesn’t use laser or light-based energy.

Most patients report only mild discomfort. An numbing cream is applied before the procedure to ensure a comfortable experience.

Tixel® works well alongside facials, microneedling, or PRP to enhance results.
