ProFractional Laser Resurfacing in San Antonio treats wrinkles, scars, and uneven skin tone by precisely targeting microscopic areas of the skin. It uses pinpoint laser beams to stimulate collagen production and cellular regeneration, resulting in smoother, rejuvenated skin.

Trigger Natural Healing
and Improve Skin Health

ProFractional Laser Resurfacing rejuvenates the skin by targeting precise areas with laser energy. This stimulates collagen production and accelerates skin renewal, effectively reducing wrinkles, scars, and pigmentation irregularities. During treatment, the laser creates thousands of microscopic channels in the skin, triggering the body’s natural healing process. As collagen remodels and new skin cells form, the skin appears smoother, firmer, and more youthful. ProFractional Laser Resurfacing is a versatile solution for enhancing skin texture and addressing signs of aging, offering noticeable results with minimal downtime.

How Does ProFractional™ Laser Resurfacing Work?

ProFractional Laser Resurfacing in San Antonio uses a fractionated erbium laser to rejuvenate skin through precise targeting of microscopic treatment zones. This laser emits high-energy pulses that penetrate the skin, creating thousands of tiny channels or microthermal zones. These zones extend deep into the dermis while leaving surrounding tissue intact, promoting rapid healing and collagen remodeling. The controlled injury stimulates the body’s natural wound-healing response, triggering the production of new collagen and elastin fibers.

As collagen remodels over time, the skin’s texture improves, reducing the appearance of wrinkles, scars, and pigmentation irregularities. The fractionated erbium laser’s wavelength is specifically absorbed by water in the skin cells, ensuring minimal damage to the skin’s surface and enhancing safety. This process not only addresses superficial imperfections but also improves overall skin tone and elasticity, delivering noticeable rejuvenation with fewer side effects compared to traditional ablative lasers.

ProFractional™ Laser Resurfacing + BBL HERO

ProFractional Laser Resurfacing in San Antonio can be enhanced with BBL HERO. The BBL HERO’s intense pulsed light targets pigmentation and vascular concerns, while the ProFractional laser treats skin texture and wrinkles. BBL HERO delivers rapid pulses of light energy to gently heat the upper layers of skin, targeting pigment irregularities like sunspots and freckles and vascular lesions like redness and broken capillaries. Together, ProFractional Laser Resurfacing and BBL HERO produce smoother, clearer skin with reduced signs of aging and sun damage.

Your ProFractional™ Laser Resurfacing Session

During your ProFractional Laser Resurfacing session, a numbing cream may be applied to ensure comfort. The procedure begins with the precise application of the fractionated erbium laser over targeted areas. You’ll feel mild heat and tingling sensations as the laser creates microscopic treatment zones, stimulating collagen production deep within your skin. The session lasts about 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the areas treated and the depth of treatment chosen to address your specific skin concerns.

ProFractional™ Laser Resurfacing Recovery & Aftercare

After ProFractional Laser Resurfacing in San Antonio, you can expect mild redness and swelling similar to a sunburn, lasting about 2 to 3 days. You can resume normal activities immediately with proper sun protection. Over the next few days, your skin will begin to peel and flake as new, smoother skin emerges. It’s crucial to keep your skin hydrated with recommended moisturizers and avoid direct sun exposure. Regular use of sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher is essential to protect your skin and maintain long-term results.

ProFractional™ Laser Resurfacing Results

ProFractional Laser Resurfacing delivers noticeable results as collagen production increases. You’ll see initial improvements in skin texture and tone within a week, with optimal results visible after several weeks. The results last for a year or more, depending on your skin condition and lifestyle factors. Most people achieve their desired results with 1 to 3 sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. However, regular maintenance treatments every 6 to 12 months can help sustain and enhance the rejuvenating effects over time.
