When skin care alone is not addressing the texture you notice, it may be time for a different conversation. At Med Spa Studios in Frisco, Sciton ProFractional offers targeted resurfacing for selected scars, lines, and uneven texture.
Look beyond the surface
ProFractional can improve the appearance of acne scars, fine lines, wrinkles, and rough texture. The goal is visible improvement, not erasing a scar. Your skin and the type of scarring help determine whether resurfacing is a useful next step.
- Selected acne scars and other scars
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Uneven or rough skin texture
Small channels. A focused renewal process.
An erbium laser creates tiny channels in a fraction of the treatment area, leaving tissue between them intact. This triggers a healing response and collagen remodeling. Depth and coverage can be adjusted to balance the changes you want with the recovery you can plan for.
The right plan starts with a closer look
Discuss your scar type, skin tone, medical history, medicines, and past reactions to treatments. Mention cold sores, a tendency to form raised scars, and recent tanning. Some concerns need another approach or a combination plan. Your consultation is the time to understand the options and risks, including pigment changes, infection, and scarring.
Your treatment, at your level
The provider reviews the planned area and discusses preparation and comfort measures, which may include topical anesthetic. Sensation varies, and warmth can continue after the procedure. Ask how much time to allow for preparation, treatment, and aftercare instructions.
Give renewal room to happen
Expect redness and possible swelling, pinpoint oozing, and flaking. Their extent and duration depend on treatment depth and coverage. Follow instructions for cleansing, moisturizing, and sun avoidance; let flakes come away naturally. Resume makeup and exercise when your provider advises. Increasing warmth, excessive swelling, drainage, or fever warrants prompt contact with the team.
Assess the change over time
An early change may become visible after healing, while collagen remodeling takes longer. Progress can continue over subsequent months. A series may be appropriate; your response and goals should guide further treatment. Bring your event calendar to the consultation so recovery is planned realistically.
