Fractional Erbium:YAG Laser is a gentle and yet effective type of minimum to non-ablative laser. It improves skin conditions by affecting only a fraction of your skin at a time with thousands of tiny but deep microscopic laser columns (Microthermal Treatment Zone MTZ) in your skin. For every column, laser targets and treats intensively but leave the surrounding tissues intact. This allows the skin to heal much faster to create new, healthy tissue.
As only fractional volume of skin is treated, the spared healthy tissue between treatment zones contains viable cells that promote a more rapid healing. The end result is comparable with the intensive traditional resurfacing technology but with minimal downtime, a lot less complications and high satisfactory rate.
Fractional Erbium:YAG Laser is used to treat deep acne scars, stretch marks, stubborn pigmentation including melasma. It can also effectively treat sun damage, fine wrinkles and aging skin, to rejuvenate the skin for an overall younger look.
Anaesthetic cream may be applied for 40 minutes prior to the treatment for your maximum comfort. The laser procedure will take about 20 minutes for a full face. Most of the clients describe the sensation as “pins and needles”.
This is a safe procedure when it is done right and the post treatment reactions are temporary. These include mild redness, swelling and hot sensation. Mild skin scabbing might occur in some cases which would peel off after 6 days.
