How does the Fractional Skin Resurfacing laser work?
The Fractional Skin Resurfacing laser is designed to target aging and sun damaged skin by zeroing in on damaged tissue. The laser creates an array of microchannels and each channel penetrates into the dermis, far below the outer most epidermal layer of the skin. When the beam penetrates deep into the dermis layer of the skin, it eliminates the old pigmented cells. Surrounding each of these beams is healthy, unaffected tissue. The healthy surrounding tissue triggers the body’s natural healing process, accelerating the production of collagen and the formation of new, tighter tissue to replace the skin’s imperfections.
