Precision Technology
What is ProFractional laser therapy?
ProFractional laser treatment is an advanced skin resurfacing technique that uses Sciton's fractionated erbium laser. This innovative technology treats a fraction of the skin at a time, creating thousands of microscopic channels in the skin. This process stimulates the body's natural healing response, promoting new collagen production and resulting in dramatic improvements in skin texture, fine lines, deep wrinkles, scars, and pigmented lesions.
What sets ProFractional apart is its fine-depth tunability. Our experienced providers at PSG can customize the treatment depth up to 1500 microns, allowing us to target specific skin concerns in various layers of the dermis. This versatility makes this an excellent option for a wide range of skin types and concerns.
Renewal That Works
What is the ProFractional laser therapy procedure like?
When you visit PSG for a ProFractional laser treatment, our expert team will begin by cleansing your skin and applying a topical anesthetic for your comfort. The handpiece is then passed over the treatment area, delivering precise microbeams of laser energy to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin.
The procedure typically takes 30-60 minutes, depending on the size of the treatment area and the depth of treatment required. Throughout the process, our skilled providers carefully adjust the laser settings to ensure optimal results while prioritizing your safety and comfort.

A Collagen Comeback
ProFractional Laser Treatment Recovery
One of the advantages of ProFractional is its minimal downtime. Most patients experience some redness and swelling for 3-5 days after treatment, with a sensation similar to a mild sunburn. You may also notice some slight bronzing and peeling of the skin as it renews itself. We'll provide you with detailed aftercare instructions to ensure optimal healing and results, including the use of gentle skincare products and diligent sun protection.
Fine-Tuning Your Complexion
ProFractional Laser Treatment Results
Patients notice improvements in their skin's texture and tone within days of treatment. However, the full results of ProFractional develop over time as your body produces new collagen. Most patients see significant improvements within 2-3 months, with results continuing to improve for up to 6 months.
The number of treatments needed varies depending on your skin concerns and goals. Some patients achieve their desired results with a single treatment, while others may benefit from a series of treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart.
