Tixel Treatment
At Beauty Solutions Med Spa, we are proud to be the first med spa in Calabasas and the surrounding areas to offer the revolutionary Tixel treatment. In fact, during the first year of introducing Tixel to the area, we held exclusive rights to provide this advanced skin rejuvenation technology, giving our clients early access to one of the most innovative non-laser resurfacing treatments available.
Tixel is an advanced skin rejuvenation treatment designed to improve wrinkles, skin texture, sun damage, and overall skin quality using controlled thermal energy. Unlike traditional laser treatments, Tixel uses gentle heat to stimulate collagen production and resurface the skin with minimal downtime, making it a comfortable and effective option for smoother, firmer, healthier-looking skin. At Beauty Solutions Med Spa in Calabasas, every Tixel treatment is fully customized to address your unique skin concerns and aesthetic goals while delivering natural, refreshed results.

What to Expect
1. Consultation: Your journey begins with a thorough consultation with one of our experienced practitioners. We will evaluate your skin concerns and determine if Tixel is the right treatment for you.
2. During the Treatment: A typical Tixel session lasts between 30-60 minutes, depending on the treatment area. The procedure is relatively comfortable, with patients experiencing a warm, tingling sensation during the application.
3. Post-Treatment Care: Post-treatment, you may notice mild redness and swelling, similar to a mild sunburn, which typically subsides within a few days. Our team will provide detailed aftercare instructions to help you achieve the best results.
4. Results: You may start to see improvements as soon as one week after your Tixel treatment. Optimal results are usually observed over several months as collagen production continues to enhance skin texture and firmness. For the best outcomes, a series of treatments may be recommended.

Frequently Asked Questions about Tixel
1. How is Tixel different from an Intense Pulsed Light (IPL)?
Tixel is not a light-based treatment like IPL. This system transfers less heat to the surrounding tissues than IPL, so it is safe to use in patients with dark skin and melasma.
2. How is Tixel different from microneedling and RF microneedling?
Tixel is non-invasive, whereas microneedling treatments with and without RF are invasive. Additionally, both providers and patients report more visible tightening and wrinkle reduction with Tixel when compared to microneedling with or without RF
3. How is Tixel different from a fractional ablative laser?
Tixel is not a laser. At higher settings, providers report similar results to their fractional ablative lasers. With the Tixel, the stratum corneum (the outermost layer of the skin) remains intact making it an easier recovery with significantly less downtime. Patients have no oozing or bleeding and report significantly less swelling. Additionally, Tixel patients can apply sunscreen and makeup just 24 hours post-treatment, allowing patients to return to normal activities quickly and without visible wound healing.
4. What does Tixel feel like?
Tixel is well-tolerated. Many patients can be treated without anesthetic. Use of chilled air and topical numbing may increase patient comfort. Most patients report feeling some heat at the treatment site.
5. How many treatments are recommended with Tixel?
For skin rejuvenation, we recommend 3 treatments, scheduled once every 4 to 6 weeks, followed by one to two maintenance treatments within the year. If you are treating a more difficult issue, like acne scarring, or you are using lower settings, it may take more treatments.
6. How much downtime after Tixel treatment?
Because the outermost layer of the skin remains intact after Tixel treatment, downtime is minimal. Of course, lower settings result in less downtime than more aggressive settings. Individual responses will vary based off settings used, patient genetic factors, compliance with post-care instructions, and overall skin health. Patients may wear makeup after 24 hours, and most return to normal activity (including social interaction and work) within hours post-treatment.
7. What post-care is recommended with Tixel?
After a Tixel treatment, patients should plan for 24 hours of being out of the sun as much as possible. Wear a hat for any time spent outside. No heavy exercise, no Jacuzzis or saunas, and refrain from putting any skincare products on the skin, except for what your provider recommends. After the 24-hour period, patients may use gentle cleanser to wash their skin, as well as apply alight moisturizer, sunscreen, and makeup. Refrain from using any skincare products with active ingredients for up to a week post-treatment.
8. How much does a treatment cost?
Cost is individualized per customer and per area. Make sure to set up a consultation to get accurate treatment costs for your custom treatments.
