Fractional Laser

Fractional Lasers can completely transform your skin!

“Fractional” Fraxel Laser Resurfacing is a technology which delivers results approaching that of deep chemical peels or ablative laser resurfacing, without the discomfort and inconvenience of a lengthy healing period and with minimum risk. All traditional resurfacing methods treat the entire skin surface, to obtain a significant, “permanent” result.

Fractional Fraxel Laser Resurfacing with the Profractional Sciton Laser uses an invisible laser beam which is strongly absorbed by water. The beam is less than 100 millionths of an inch in diameter, about the size of a human hair. The beam passes through the dry, outer layer of skin and wounds the underlying collagen. Nearby undamaged cells immediately move into this microscopically damaged area and heal the wounded area. During each treatment, millions of these microscopic areas are created, but most of the skin remains undamaged, allowing rapid healing. Further collagen remodelling and some skin tightening takes place over the next 3-6 months.

Indications for Fractional Fraxel Laser Resurfacing include sun-damaged skin, fine wrinkles, age and sun spots, hyper-pigmentation, acne and other scarring and hair loss rejuvenation
