Fractora Laser Resurfacing
Fractora delivers targeted bipolar RF energy to various selectable depths in the skin. Fractora meets and exceeds the results of fractional CO2 without the associated downtime, prolonged redness, and pigmentation drawbacks. Fractora achieves full-scale treatment depths with customizable fractional energy to improve superficial skin tone problems (photo damage) to deep textural concerns (rhytids and tightening). Clinicians can select between variable depths, densities and energy levels for results that were previously unattainable without excisional surgery.
- Safe to treat neck and other areas with profound contraction
- Safe on ethnic skin with little risk of post inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) which can occur with CO2 Lasers.
- Tips with various depths and pin density configurations

Pixel Laser Resurfacing
The Pixel CO2 is our newest Laser Technology at the clinic. This laser delivers results in approximately 3 to 5 days, as opposed to the 30 days often necessary for traditional ablative CO2 procedures. The results are similar, yet with minimal risk. Pixel works by creating thousands of microscopic perforations while leaving the surrounding tissue intact. This allows for very rapid healing and improving your complexion.
Am I a good Pixel Laser Resurfacing candidate?
If your skin looks older than you want it to, you’re a candidate for Pixel Perfect™ laser treatments. The best candidates have moderate sun damage, are in good health and take care of their skin.
Does Pixel Laser Resurfacing work on my skin type?
Pixel is fractional laser resurfacing that can be performed on most skin types preferably skin types 1-3.
How long will it take?
Treatment time depends on many factors, but can take less than 30 minutes. If your condition is advanced, your treatment may take longer. You will be in the clinic for approximately 1 and half hours. The numbing cream will be applied for 1 hour.
Is it safe?
Pixel resurfacing treatments have been performed all over the world and continue to be a safe and effective way of rejuvenating your skin. Some skin conditions can interfere with any treatment of this nature.
Will it hurt?
Pain tolerance varies from person to person. Erbium Pixel Perfect™ treatments may feel like a sunburn while CO2 and Radio Frequency treatments may seem more intense. Either way, follow all post treatment instructions and know that pain symptoms are normal and fleeting. You will be given a post instruction for any resurfacing treatments that are preformed at the clinic.
What if I need a touch-up later?
While Pixel laser resurfacing and other laser treatments give you great looking skin, nothing stops the hands of time! Depending on your starting point, you may need more than one session. Your lifestyle is also a mitigating factor and, for best results, you should maintain a healthy lifestyle and take good care of your skin.
