What it is
A fractional resurfacing category used for selected texture, pore, scar and pigment plans; the exact wavelength and platform should be confirmed.
Fractional columns of laser energy are delivered while leaving surrounding tissue untreated. Wavelength and density determine depth and downtime.
Who it may suit
People with a clinician-confirmed pigment, redness, texture, pore or scar concern suited to the selected wavelength or device.
Who needs extra review
Recent tanning, active infection, photosensitising medication, uncontrolled skin disease or a high pigment-change risk require medical review.
Planning and results
- Common areas
- Face or body areas selected after an in-person medical assessment
- Sessions
- Often planned as a series because pigment, redness, scars and pores respond differently. Diagnosis comes before session count.
- When results may appear
- Redness or darkening can appear first. Improvement may develop over weeks and often requires more than one visit.
- Downtime
- Downtime varies with the treatment area and settings; temporary redness, swelling, tenderness or bruising may occur.
