ProFractional Laser Treatment
What is the ProFractional Laser Treatment?
The Profractional Laser Treatment is
a "fractional" treatment
that produces many deep, tiny columns in your skin without
affecting any of the surrounding tissue. This reduces discomfort
and shortens healing time while promoting the skin's natural process
for creating new, healthier tissue to replace the damaged cells.
How is the Profractional laser different from other laser treatments?
Profractional
treatments strive to offer the effectiveness of ablative lasers
with the benefits of the gentler, non-ablative lasers.
How does the Profractional laser work?
The Profractional Laser Treatment is
designed to target specific portions of damaged tissue. By creating
microscopic "wounds" within
the targeted areas, Profractional laser treatments trigger the
body's natural healing process accelerating the production of collagen
and new, healthy skin cells.
How many treatments will I need?
Clinical studies suggest
an effective treatment regimen is 1-3 sessions. Results
are immediate and progressive. Optimal improvement is usually visible
in 2 to 3 months. This time frame and treatment structure
allows for complete healing and replacement of damaged tissue with
new collagen and elastin, and viable healthy skin cell growth.
Is the ProFractional Laser Treatment painful?
Most patients describe the treatment
as having a "prickling" sensation.
