ProFractional™
ProFractional is a quick and comfortable laser procedure with little to no downtime, used for improving the overall appearance of the skin. ProFractional uses a laser microbeam to treat thousands of pinpoint areas of the skin. Improvement is visibly noticeable in a wide variety of skin conditions such as wrinkles and fine lines, post-traumatic and acne scars, age and sun spots, freckles, signs of aging and sun damage.
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 body's natural healing process, and the treated areas stimulate production of new collagen, plumping up the skin and smoothing out the wrinkles, lines, scars and other irregularities.
Depending on your skin's needs, ProFractional is typically done in a series of 1-4 treatments spaced 3-6 weeks apart. Dr. Salzman will personalize the treatment plan for each patient based on the amount of improvement needed. A topical numbing cream is applied prior to the treatment to eliminate any discomfort. The actual ProFractional treatment last about 30 minutes.
Immediately following the procedure you will experience a redness resembling a sunburn which can last several days depending on the depth of the treatment performed. Most patients return to makeup and work 1-2 days following the treatment.
