ProFractional™ Skin Revitalization

If you’re looking for a safe and effective way to smooth fine lines, soften acne scars, and improve overall skin texture, ProFractional™ therapy may be the solution. This advanced laser skin resurfacing treatment is designed to target specific skin concerns while promoting rapid healing, leaving you with refreshed, radiant skin and a more youthful appearance.

How ProFractional™ Therapy Works

Unlike full field resurfacing techniques that treat the entire surface area of the skin, ProFractional™ laser treatment works by creating micro-channels in the skin with a precise laser beam. These controlled channels penetrate to varying depths depending on your customized treatment plan. By treating only a fraction of the skin at a time and preserving surrounding tissue intact, the ProFractional™ laser stimulates collagen production while promoting faster healing.

Benefits of ProFractional™ Therapy

The benefits of ProFractional™ treatment go far beyond simply improving skin texture. Patients often notice a visible reduction in fine lines and wrinkles, along with a softer appearance of acne scars and surgical scars. The treatment also helps diminish sun damage, pigmentation issues, and uneven skin tone while minimizing the look of enlarged pores. By tightening the skin and improving laxity, ProFractional™ creates a firmer, smoother surface and promotes natural skin rejuvenation through stimulating collagen growth.

What to Expect During Treatment

ProFractional™ laser resurfacing is performed in-office and is generally well tolerated. The treatment itself takes about 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the size of the treatment area. To maximize comfort, a topical numbing cream or anesthetic is applied beforehand.

Depending on your specific skin concerns and desired outcomes, one to four treatment sessions may be recommended as part of a customized treatment plan. During the procedure, patients may feel a mild sunburn-like sensation at the treatment site, which usually fades within a few hours.

Ideal Candidates For ProFractional™ Therapy

ProFractional™ laser treatment is suitable for many skin types and tones, including lighter and darker skin; ideal candidates are those seeking improvement in:

  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Wrinkles acne scars or surgical scars
  • Rough or uneven skin texture
  • Enlarged pores or skin imperfections
  • Sun damage or uneven pigmentation
  • Facial rejuvenation treatment with minimal downtime

A consultation will help determine if ProFractional™ therapy is the right cosmetic dermatology option for your goals.

Post-Treatment Care

Following ProFractional™ therapy, patients are advised to avoid direct sun exposure and apply sunscreen daily to protect the treatment site. Strenuous exercise should be postponed until the skin fully heals, and a gentle skincare routine recommended by Dr. Demianczuk should be followed to encourage recovery.

It’s normal to experience mild redness, similar to a sunburn, for the first few days. Makeup should be avoided until the skin has healed completely to prevent irritation. By caring for your skin, you can extend the benefits of ProFractional™ therapy and enjoy a smoother appearance.

ProFractional™ Results

Most patients notice improved skin texture and a more radiant, youthful skin tone as the skin heals and collagen production continues. Results build over time and may last up to a year or more with proper maintenance. Because ProFractional™ treats only a fraction of the skin at a time, patients enjoy minimal downtime while still achieving deep resurfacing.

If you’re ready to reduce fine lines, improve skin texture, and address your specific skin concerns with advanced laser technology, schedule a consultation with Dr. Arko Demianczuk. Together, you can create a customized treatment plan designed to achieve your desired outcomes and restore smooth, youthful, refreshed skin.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does ProFractional™ laser treatment work?

ProFractional™ therapy works by using a precise laser beam to create microscopic channels in the skin while leaving the surrounding tissue intact. Because only a fraction of the skin is treated, the surrounding tissue supports rapid healing.

What skin concerns can ProFractional™ treat?

ProFractional™ is effective for improving fine lines and wrinkles, acne scars, surgical scars, sun damage, enlarged pores, uneven skin tone, and rough or uneven skin. The treatment can be customized to target specific areas or used as a comprehensive facial rejuvenation treatment to enhance overall skin quality and promote a youthful appearance.

How many treatments will I need?

The number of treatment sessions depends on your individual skin concerns and desired outcomes. Some patients achieve noticeable improvement after just one session, while others may benefit from a series of 2–4 treatments spaced several weeks apart. Dr. Demianczuk will develop a customized treatment plan to ensure the best results for your skin type and goals.

What does recovery feel like after ProFractional™ therapy?

After treatment, most patients experience redness and mild swelling, similar to a sunburn, for a few days.

Is ProFractional™ safe for all skin types?

ProFractional™ laser resurfacing can be safely performed on a variety of skin types and tones, including darker skin, when administered by a skilled provider.
