ProFractional
Dramatically improve wrinkles, scars & sun-damaged skin with ProFractional
What is ProFractional?
ProFractional is a quick and comfortable laser procedure with little to no downtime, used for improving the overall appearance of your skin. ProFractional uses a laser microbeam to treat thousands of pinpoint areas of your skin. And because only a fraction of the skin is directly treated with the laser, healing time is quick and downtime is short.
What conditions can be treated with ProFractional?
ProFractional can be used to improve a wide variety of skin conditions, but is used most for:
- Wrinkles and fine lines
- Post-traumatic scars
- Acne scars
- Age spots
- Sun spots
- Freckles
- Aging and sun-damaged skin
How does the ProFractional laser work?
ProFractional uses laser energy to create thousands of microscopic channels in the skin which are surrounded by areas of healthy, untreated skin. The zones of untreated skin invigorate the bodys natural healing process, and the treated areas stimulate production of new collagen, plumping up the skin and smoothing out wrinkles, lines, scars and other irregularities.
Who should consider a ProFractional treatment?
If you are looking for younger looking skin, or to improve scars, wrinkles, or sun damage in a comfortable treatment with a fast recovery, then you may be an ideal candidate for ProFractional.
What areas can be treated?
Most skin areas can be treated. Popular areas are the face, neck, chest and hands.
What should I expect after treatment?
Immediately following the procedure you may experience some swelling, some redness resembling a sunburn sensation and some bleeding. Complete healing takes about 3 days and most patients can get back to work and apply makeup within 2 days after the treatment.
What special after-treatment care will I need?
It is important to follow your physicians instructions which may include some skin care products and instructions on how to use them. You skin will be more sensitive to ultra-violet light after the procedure, so you must avoid direct sun exposure until fully healed. You should always use some level of sun protection to avoid sun damage and premature aging of your skin.
