Understanding Fractional Treatments
Fractional treatments are advanced procedures that target only a fraction of the skin at a time, preserving the surrounding tissue. This technique enhances the healing process, minimises downtime, reduces infection risk, and reduces the likelihood of scarring or pigmentation issues, such as post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH). At Skin Renewal, our Fractional Fusion protocols use precise, controlled laser beams to initiate a natural healing process by creating micro-injuries in the skin, stimulating collagen production without harming the adjacent areas.
Benefits of Choosing Fractional Treatments
Our tailored fractional treatments address multiple skin issues simultaneously—from fine lines and wrinkles to uneven skin tone and texture. Ideal for combating the effects of sun exposure, pollution, and ageing, these treatments offer a comprehensive solution for maintaining youthful, radiant skin. They are particularly effective for:
- Reducing wrinkles and fine lines.
- Improving skin tone and texture.
- Treating sun damage and pigmentation.
- Minimising the appearance of acne and surgical scars.
- Addressing pre-cancerous conditions like actinic keratosis.
Potential Side Effects and Recovery
Post-treatment effects may include mild swelling and redness, typically subsiding within 2 to 5 days. Other temporary side effects may include minor itching, dryness, peeling, or a bronzed appearance in the treated areas. At Skin Renewal, we prepare the skin thoroughly before the treatment and provide comprehensive post-care to minimise risks and enhance recovery.
