What It Is

A Heated
Titanium Tip, Not a Laser.

Tixel is a thermo-mechanical ablation device that uses a heated titanium tip to create precise micro-channels in the skin. Unlike laser treatments, which rely on light energy, Tixel uses direct heat transfer to stimulate collagen production and activate your skin’s natural renewal process.

The treatment is quick and well-tolerated — most patients describe it as a warm sensation rather than pain. Topical numbing cream is available to maximize comfort.

The Eyelid Advantage
Safely Treats
Where Most Lasers Cannot.

Tixel can safely treat the delicate eyelid skin where most lasers cannot be used. This is a significant advantage for patients concerned about crepey or loose eyelid skin, crow’s feet, and other signs of periorbital aging. The precision and gentleness of the thermo-mechanical approach make it ideal for this sensitive area, where laser treatments pose safety risks.

Tixel vs. Laser Resurfacing

Gentler.
Faster Recovery.

Both treatments stimulate skin renewal, but they differ in intensity and approach. Tixel is gentler with less downtime — ideal for patients seeking rejuvenation without extended recovery.

Laser resurfacing using Erbium YAG technology is more aggressive and addresses deeper concerns like severe scarring or significant skin laxity. Your consultation will determine which is right for you.

Comparing Tixel and laser approaches
Frequently asked
What does treatment feel like?

Mild warmth or heat sensation. Topical numbing cream is available to maximize comfort. Treatment takes 15 to 30 minutes depending on the area.

What is recovery like?

Mild redness typically subsides within 1 to 3 days. Most patients experience minimal downtime and can return to normal activities immediately.

When will I see results?

Some improvement is visible after a single session, but optimal results come from a series of 3 to 4 sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. Collagen remodeling continues for several months after treatment.
