ProFractional™ Skin Revitalization
Deep Resurfacing.
Transformative Results.
Experience Powerful & Quick Skin Polishing with ProFractional
Do you faithfully take care of your skin—wear sun protection, cleanse, hydrate, and exfoliate—but still aren’t seeing results that scream “WOW?” Over time, sun exposure, aging, and scarring from acne may compromise your skin. Restore the appearance of a healthy, youthful complexion and reduce the appearance of wrinkles, scars, and more with the safe, effective, and low-downtime treatment, ProFractional.
How ProFractional Works
Profractional creates narrow channels in the skin to stimulate natural collagen remodeling, resulting in the appearance of younger-looking and refreshed skin.
ProFractional treats only a fraction of the skin and leaves the surrounding tissue intact, which promote rapid healing. This is unlike full-field resurfacing techniques that remove the entire surface area of a treatment site.
The speed of your recovery following treatment can vary based on the treatment’s intensity, and the specific skin concerns you’re addressing.

The ProFractional Experience
Before treatment, the provider will place a topical anesthetic on the skin for added comfort.
You should feel minimal to no discomfort as your provider delivers a ProFractional treatment to your skin. After the treatment, most patients will continue to feel warm for an additional 30 to 60 minutes with deeper treatment levels.
It is important to keep the skin moisturized with non-fragranced products for the first 3 days.
Twenty-four hours later, the skin may feel slightly swollen and/or itchy. This should resolve within 3 to 5 days.
Before & After
