Tixel treatments offer a unique and innovative approach to skin resurfacing, utilizing thermal-mechanical ablative (TMA) technology to rejuvenate the surface of your skin. With this safe, direct heat application, Tixel is believed to be superior to other methods of skin resurfacing currently available on the market. It stimulates collagen production, improves skin texture, and reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. This cutting-edge technology has been a top procedure in the UK for several years and is now available in the US.
The versatility of Tixel allows treatment to be tailored to each individual’s unique needs, whether it’s addressing specific skin concerns or improving overall skin tone and texture. Additionally, Tixel can be used to treat body areas such as the abdomen, knees, and arms. With its ability to treat a range of skin-related conditions, including fine lines and wrinkles, acne scars, skin discoloration, age spots, damaged skin, and more, Tixel is an excellent solution for anyone looking to rejuvenate and refresh their skin.

How Does Tixel Treatment Work?
Tixel is a revolutionary skin rejuvenation treatment that uses thermo-mechanical ablative (TMA) technology to deliver unparalleled skin rejuvenation results. This innovative method involves a titanium tip with 81 tiny needle-like pyramids that are heated to 400°C, stimulating collagen production through heat energy. This unique approach is particularly effective in reducing fine lines and wrinkles, skin pigmentations, and discolorations, as well as treating acne scars, sun damage, and uneven skin texture and tone.
With three modes (non-ablative, ablative, and open channel), Tixel can be tailored to individual needs, from gentle heating to more aggressive treatments that create deep or shallow micro-channels. The open channel mode, in particular, allows for the deeper infusion of topical serums and products into the skin, providing a nourishing and restorative experience. We love this treatment for addressing a diverse range of aesthetic needs–book your consultation today to learn what Tixel can do for you!

Longview’s Tixel Treatment FAQs
Explore more information about this incredibly advanced skin therapy.
Tixel can treat a range of skin-related conditions, including:
- Wrinkles and fine lines
- Acne scars or any textural issues
- Skin discoloration
- Age spots
- Damaged skin (e.g. sunlight)
- Skin tone and texture
Treatments typically last around 30 minutes. During a Tixel treatment, the skin is first cleaned with a disinfectant to ensure a sterile environment. Prior to treatment, a topical numbing cream can be applied to minimize any discomfort, but it is not always necessary.
The Tixel machine is then applied to the area(s) being treated, and thermal energy is controlled and varied to target the specific condition being treated. The treatment process involves reducing skin contact and thermal conductivity to optimize the outcome.
After a Tixel treatment, you can expect to feel a warm, “sunburned” sensation for a few hours, which should be relieved with the use of sunscreen. Redness and micro crusting may persist for a few days, but peeling or blistering is not common. To aid in the healing process, we recommend using aftercare products, which will be discussed during your appointment.
Makeup can be applied 48 hours after treatment to cover the skin while it continues to heal. We suggest using mineral makeup for optimal results. It’s important to note that optimal results may take several weeks, and we recommend a course of 3-6 sessions for the best outcome.
Additionally, patients should not undergo Tixel treatment while pregnant or breastfeeding and should avoid active tanning. They should use strong sun protection for 3 weeks prior to and following treatment.
With Tixel treatment, results can be seen as early as a week after treatment. For more long-lasting results, it’s recommended to undergo a course of treatments. In the 10 days following treatment, the skin undergoes a natural healing process, during which the damaged skin surface recovers and becomes visibly smoother and younger. As the skin heals, lines, wrinkles, and pigmentations will be reduced, leaving the skin looking refreshed and revitalized.
Some of our favorite advantages to Tixel include:
- Delivers fantastic results
- Fast and convenient
- Minimal pain/discomfort
- Minimal downtime (fast healing)
- Natural methods
- No toxic chemicals, scalpels, or needles
- Free of radiation and lasers
- Suitable for a wide array of body parts, including face, neck, décolletage, arms and periorbital area (even the eyelids and right up to the eyes!)
Tixel is a standout in the world of skin resurfacing, outshining other methods like laser, radiofrequency, ultrasound, and chemical peels. One of its key advantages is its ability to treat areas that are off-limits for other techniques, such as the delicate skin around the eyes and marionette lines.
Additionally, Tixel excels in treating the face, neck, and décolletage and boasts a unique advantage in terms of pain and recovery time–it’s much less painful and requires minimal downtime compared to other methods. What’s more, Tixel’s results can last up to two years, making it a truly unrivaled treatment. In fact, its effectiveness is so impressive that the results of eyelid treatment are comparable to those of blepharoplasty surgery, a major achievement in the field of aesthetic medicine.
While Tixel is a safe and effective treatment, it’s important to be aware of the potential side effects and risks involved. Some individuals may experience sensitivity, redness, and pain, particularly in areas with thinner skin, such as around the eyes. Additionally, swelling may occur, especially during ablative treatment, and may persist for several weeks.
In some cases, minor crusting or scabbing may appear after treatment, but it’s crucial to avoid picking, rubbing, or scratching these scabs to prevent complications. With proper aftercare, most individuals can quickly recover from these temporary side effects to start enjoying the full benefits of Tixel treatment.
Yes. Tixel is not suitable for individuals with skin diseases or active infections. Additionally, pregnant and breastfeeding women should not undergo Tixel treatment. Patients with a history of cold sores around the mouth area must take a prescription medication before treatment to prevent an outbreak.
Tixel treatment may cause some discomfort and a warm sensation, similar to a sunburn, during the procedure. However, the discomfort can be alleviated by applying a topical numbing cream to the area before treatment.
