We can minimize bumps, pockmarks, acne scars, and depressions using fractional laser resurfacing.

Fractional laser resurfacing uses a laser to deliver microbeams of light deep within the skin to targeted areas. The light heats the tissue, which initiates a natural healing process that forms new, healthy tissue to tighten and improve skin tone and texture, creating smoother skin and removing small bumps and depressions.

Fractional lasers are different from many other lasers because they don't remove the top layer of your skin, which would leave the treated area raw and susceptible to infection.

You may experience redness, warmth, swelling, or tightness in the treated area, which typically fades within a few hours of treatment. There is no downtime, so you can usually continue with your normal day.

A series of three to six treatments at 14 to 28-day intervals may be required. Results continue to improve for six to 12 months or more after treatment is completed.
