About the procedure
When pitted scars and stretched pores stand out
Pico Fraxel divides the laser beam into micro-scale points and leaves healthy tissue between them, so the surrounding tissue can support regeneration. It creates tiny channels in the skin to stimulate collagen regeneration and skin remodeling, and refines the edges of pitted scars to help even out texture.
Using picosecond energy, with pulses measured in trillionths of a second, it delivers energy in a very short time, a design intended to reduce damage to surrounding tissue. At consultation, scar shape and depth, pore size, and firmness are reviewed to set the energy level and procedure plan.
