Fractional resurfacing
Fraxel
Leaves healthy skin between the columns, on purpose.
Fraxel places microscopic laser columns in a uniform grid, deliberately leaving untreated skin between them. That surrounding tissue is what drives fast healing, and it is the reason fractional resurfacing can be repeated without the recovery of full ablation.

Fractional resurfacing
What it addresses
Treat the gland, not only the breakout.
- 01Enlarged pores and rough texture improved
- 02Acne scars and depressed scarring levelled
- 03Collagen stimulated, softening fine lines
- 04Tone tidied and skin condition restored
How it works
Microscopic columns
A grid of tiny treatment zones rather than a continuous ablated surface, which keeps healing fast.
Depth by indication
Er:YAG and CO2 configurations reach different depths. Scar type decides which one runs.
Plan around your calendar
There is real downtime here. We schedule it against your week rather than pretending there isn't.
Every plan is decided in consultation. Suitability, sequence and dosage differ from person to person.
