common photofractional questions

FAQ
what is photofractional?

Photofractional treatment combines Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) and ResurFX laser technology to target a range of skin issues, including pigmentation, texture irregularities, and signs of aging. The IPL addresses surface pigmentation, while the ResurFX laser stimulates collagen to improve skin texture and elasticity. 

is photofractional painful?

Patients may experience minimal discomfort, akin to a sensation of heat. We apply a numbing cream to minimize this and ensure your comfort during the procedure. 

what is the cost of a photofractional treatment?

Cost varies, but plan to budget several hundred dollars per treatment. Multiple treatments (3+) spaced 4-6 weeks apart may be recommended for best outcome.  

will i need multiple photofractional treatments?

Yes – although some results may be seen after one session, most patients require at least 3 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart for optimal results. The number of sessions needed depends on the severity of the skin condition being treated and/or the patient’s aesthetic goals.  

what is the downtime after a photofractional treatment?

Downtime is minimal. Some redness and swelling may occur for a few days, but most patients can resume normal activities quickly. Skin may also feel slightly dry as it begins to rejuvenate. 

how do i prepare for a photofractional treatment?

Preparation includes avoiding waxing, plucking, and tanning for 2 weeks prior, not using skin lightening products for 1 week, and arriving with clean, makeup-free skin. 

how soon will i see the results from photofractional?

Improvements in skin appearance can start shortly after the procedure, with more noticeable results typically visible after about a month. Continued improvements can be observed over subsequent treatments.  

how long do the results of photofractional last?

The results can be long-lasting, especially with a good skincare routine and periodic maintenance sessions. Collagen production from the treatment supports skin improvements for years when properly maintained. 

what skin problems can be improved with photofractional?

Photofractional treatment effectively addresses uneven skin texture, acne scars, stretch marks, hyperpigmentation, sun damage, rosacea, and more, offering a comprehensive approach to skin rejuvenation. 

are there any side effects of photofractional?

Common side effects include mild redness, swelling, and dryness. Skin may feel sensitive and begin to peel a few days post-treatment, revealing fresher skin underneath. Adhering to post-care instructions is crucial for the best recovery and results.
