Fractional Laser Treatments

Monday, October 26th, 2009

FractionalLaserFractional laser treatments are a new twist to traditional laser resurfacing. Traditional laser procedures treat the entire surface of the face and are used to smooth away deep wrinkles, but may require extended downtime. Fractional laser resurfacing is a less invasive treatment series that eliminates wrinkles, fine lines and other skin imperfections, while requiring less healing time.

Laser fractional therapy uses gentle pulses that treat only a small portion of the surface of the face at one time. These pulses are effective in treating many skin conditions including wrinkles, acne scars, and sun-damaged skin. Depending on the depth of the chosen treatment, it can involve one session, or a series of treatments that significantly improve skin’s texture, elasticity and clarity, with final results occurring 8-10 weeks after the first treatment.

AcneAcne is a major pain for many teenagers and can be a problem for adults as well. There are many different light-based treatments available that can make your skin clear and smooth including broadband light treatments and profractional treatments that not only reduce oil production, but can also treat acne scars as well by stimulating the growth of collagen.  Our special anti-acne skincare products can help to maintain your new complexion after your light treatments.  Another important tip to remember is that washing skin with harsh cleansers can actually cause the skin to produce more oil. So remember to go easy on your skin and call us at 417-887-FACE to schedule a consultation so you can be on your way to clearer skin.
