What Is Fractional Laser?
Fractional laser is a skin rejuvenation method that creates controlled micro-thermal injuries in the skin, triggering the healing process and collagen synthesis. It is used for acne scars, fine wrinkles, enlarged pores, and skin tone irregularities. Both ablative and non-ablative types are available.
What Conditions Does Fractional Laser Treat?
Atrophic acne scars, fine lines, enlarged pores, and sun damage-related pigmentation can be improved with fractional laser. Treatment typically involves 2–5 sessions; recovery time ranges from 3–7 days or longer depending on depth.
Post-Fractional Laser Care
Sunscreen is mandatory; gentle moisturizers and physician-recommended skincare products are used for peeling and redness. Our laser spot treatment and microneedling guides offer alternative or complementary options.
After fractional laser treatment, the skin may remain sensitive and red for 3–7 days; moisturizers and barrier-repair products accelerate healing. Sunscreen use is mandatory; otherwise, the risk of hyperpigmentation and discoloration increases. Non-ablative options offer shorter recovery times; your physician will recommend the best option based on your skin type.
