What is Tixel?

Tixel is a unique medical device powered by proprietary Thermo-Mechanical Action technology (TMA®). Combining heat and motion, its medical-grade titanium tip gently applies heat to the skin. Tixel is suitable for all skin types and for a wide variety of aesthetic and medical treatments, with its patented non-invasive technology and clinical results backed by numerous peer-reviewed publications.

Non-invasive and safe, Tixel improves skin complexion and reverses photoaging damage, so you can look forward to more youthful, revitalized skin.

How It Works

Tixel is a non-laser technology that uses 81 tiny heated pins to transfer thermal energy to the skin in a quick and controlled manner. The pins, heated to 400°C, briefly contact the skin, preventing burns while delivering effective treatment. A typical facial session lasts around 20 minutes.
