What is the Helix Laser?
The Helix Laser is a dual-wavelength fractional laser that combines ablative resurfacing and non-ablative collagen stimulation in a single, powerful session. This hybrid approach means we can deliver dramatic improvements to skin texture, tone, and firmness without the extended downtime associated with traditional laser treatments.
- Ablative laser (2940 nm Er:YAG): Removes damaged outer layers of skin to reduce fine lines, scars, and pigmentation.
- Non-ablative laser (1470 nm Diode): Penetrates below the surface to stimulate collagen and elastin, tightening skin from within.
Together, these two wavelengths allow us to create customized treatments for patients of varying skin types, tones, and conditions.
HELIX FEATURES:
- Fractional ablative and non-ablative technology powered by a robust 70 watts of energy
- DEKA’s exclusive Pulse Shape Design (PSD™) for precise control of CO2 duration, pulse energy, and shape—including H-Pulse and DEKA-pulse modes
- A wide selection of scanning patterns, shapes, and sizes, up to 20mm x 20mm for efficient coverage
- Innovative “spray” mode minimizes overlap and maximizes treatment speed and uniformity
- No consumables required—making it more efficient and cost-effective for patients
These features allow Dr. McLaren and her team to perform deep resurfacing and collagen remodeling with unmatched precision and flexibility.
What Can Helix Laser Treat?
The Helix Laser offers incredible versatility, making it ideal for treating:
- Fine lines and deep wrinkles
- Sun damage and dark spots
- Uneven tone or texture
- Acne and surgical scars
- Enlarged pores
- Skin laxity or sagging
- Stretch marks
- Neck and chest rejuvenation
- Décolleté tightening

Because the Helix system can be adjusted to suit individual needs, it’s effective for patients who are new to lasers as well as those looking for more advanced results.
