Procedure ProF Laser

Time, sun exposure, and environmental factors can leave their mark on your skin. But it’s never too late to reclaim a youthful, revitalized complexion. Profractional™ laser treatment at The Heights Plastic Surgery Med Spa in San Antonio offers a breakthrough solution. It utilizes ablative fractional technology to effectively address a range of skin imperfections without the extensive downtime associated with traditional treatments.


How Profractional Laser Therapy Works

The Sciton® Profractional laser treatment employs a unique fractional approach, delivering precise laser energy to create microscopic channels in the skin. This controlled ablation triggers a dual-action process:

  1. Targeted Resurfacing: The laser removes damaged skin cells within the targeted channels, promoting new, healthy skin growth and reducing the appearance of imperfections.
  2. Deep Dermal Stimulation: The surrounding untreated tissue initiates a natural healing response, stimulating collagen and elastin production for improved skin texture, tone, and firmness.

What Does Fractional Laser Resurfacing Target?

Profractional laser treatment’s versatility makes it a popular choice for addressing various skin issues, including:

  • Wrinkles, fine lines, and creases: Smooth out the aging signs for a more youthful appearance.
  • Uneven skin tone and discoloration: Obtain a more balanced and radiant complexion.
  • Acne scars and enlarged pores: Minimize the appearance of imperfections for smoother, clearer skin.
  • Sun damage and blotchy pigmentation: Reverse the effects of sun exposure and reveal a more even skin tone.

The Benefits of Ablative Fractional Resurfacing

  • Significant Improvement with Less Downtime: Achieve noticeable results with a short recovery period compared to traditional ablative laser treatments.
  • Long-lasting Results: Discover the benefits of improved skin texture and tone for months to come.
  • Suitable for Various Skin Types: Profractional laser treatment is customazible and can address the unique needs of different skin tones.
  • Non-surgical and Minimally Invasive: Experience effective skin rejuvenation without incisions or an extensive recovery.

What To Expect

During your Profractional laser treatment, you’ll experience a gentle warming sensation as the laser precisely targets the treatment areas. One of our medically-based providers will apply a topical numbing cream beforehand to promote your comfort. The laser procedure typically takes 15-30 minutes, depending on the size of the area being treated.


Recovery & Results

Following treatment, you may experience mild redness and swelling for a day or two, followed by a few days of peeling and flaking as new, healthy skin emerges. Protecting your skin from sun exposure during the healing process is essential for ensuring optimal results. You will likely see noticeable improvements after just one treatment, with continued enhancements over time.
