The ProFractional laser treatment offers incredible results and minimal downtime. This fractionated erbium laser encourages collagen production, which dramatically improves texture, fine lines and deep wrinkles, scars and other pigmented areas. The treatment is highly customizable and specific, which allows it to deliver energy directly where you need it and avoid a lengthy healing process.
ProFractional uses an ablative, erbium:YAG laser with high ablative efficiency and low thermal conduction. The device allows your aesthetic practitioner to adjust the pattern type and the spot size to specifically target specific spots or areas of concerns. It can also treat very shallow or very deep layers of skin, depending on your aesthetic practitioner's analysis. When the laser is fired, it creates small channels into the skin, rather than the entire area. This starts the body's healing response to produce collagen, while leaving the remaining tissue intact to speed up the healing process.
The cost of ProFractional treatments can vary based on the number of sessions needed and the area(s) to be treated. Book a complimentary consultation with one of our expert aesthetic practitioners to learn more information and achieve rejuvenated skin.
What is the downtime for a ProFractional laser treatment?
Downtime for ProFractional laser depends on the area(s) that have been treated and the depth that they have been treated. More mild procedures may only require 1 or 2 days of downtime, where deeper treatments may require anywhere for 3-7 days of healing. Skin will be flushed, like a sunburn, during the healing process. Your aesthetic practitioner will instruct you to apply a protective balm to the skin to keep the barrier intact, and you may begin wearing makeup again once the healing process is complete. It is vital to make sure your skin remains protected from the sun for the first few weeks after treatment.
How many ProFractional laser treatments are needed?
For best results, ProFractional treatments should be performed in a series. Most patients receive an average of 2 to 4 treatments, regardless of their concerns. These sessions are spaced around 4 weeks apart. Yearly or bi-annual maintenance treatments may be recommended by your aesthetic practitioner.
Does ProFractional hurt?
With the use of numbing cream, a ProFractional laser treatment generally yields minimal discomfort. Patients may experience warmth, prickling, or a sunburn sensation. Pain after the service can be treated with Tylenol and cold compresses.
Who is a good candidate for ProFractional laser?
ProFractional laser treatment is an ablative laser treatment, meaning that patients with darker skin tones may not be a candidate for this service. Your aesthetic practitioner will recommend alternatives if ProFractional is not right for you, like the Moxi laser.
In general, ProFractional laser is ideal for patients who want to treat scarring, deep-set wrinkles, particularly around the mouth and eyes, and improve their overall skin texture.
