Fractora skin treatment is a fractional resurfacing treatment that remodels collagen to help restore skin to its youthful appearance.

How many treatments will I need?

Depending on your Fractora treatment regime, you can expect to have between 1-6 sessions.

What is the benefit of fractionated energy?

Fractionated RF energy found in Fractora is a scientifically proven method to remodel skin. It is minimally invasive, using a matrix of micro pins to resurface the skin, providing exceptional results with almost no patient downtime.

Can anyone use Fractora?

The benefit of Fractora’s color blind technology is that it can be used on all skin types. The unique properties allow even darker tones to receive treatment.

What is the benefit of radio frequency energy?

RF energy heats the deep layers of the skin in a controlled way to revitalize the collagen. The treatment will improve skin complexion and texture for a more radiant and youthful appearance.

Can this be used in combination with other treatments?

Fractora can be used in the same treatment session, or a few days after other treatments. Fractora can also be combined with additional InMode energy treatments or injectables to achieve a more extensive full face result.

What kind of post procedure care is required?

Patients should moisturize the treatment area and avoid direct sun exposure. It is also recommended that patients use a good, broad spectrum sunscreen every day. Makeup can be applied 1 to 2 days after the treatment. Patients should expect to see micro lesions a few days after treatment and slight redness for up to 1 week depending on treatment parameters.

Will Dermaplaning make my hair grow back darker and/or thicker?

No, this is physiologically impossible. Hormones are responsible for hair growth. The soft, fine vellus hair will grow back slowly – usually in about 4 weeks and no different than it was previously.

How often can this procedure be done?

Dermaplaning can be done every 3-4 weeks. Treating the skin in this manner removes about 2 – 3 weeks’ worth of dead skin cells. You should leave enough time between treatments to allow the skin to complete its normal skin cycle of approximately 30-45 days before repeating.

If I want to add a peel, how do I know which one is right for me?

We’ll take care of making this decision for you based on your skin’s condition the day you arrive for your appointment. We have peels for all skin types/conditions and will discuss the best option for you!

Is Dermaplaning suitable for all skin types?

All skin types can benefit from Dermaplaning. It is particularly beneficial for clients suffering with fine lines & wrinkles, acne scarring, fine vellus facial hair (peach fuzz), uneven & rough skin, dull skin. It is important, however, to always discuss any allergies or skin sensitivities with your technician before starting a treatment

Is Dermaplaning painful?

No. The treatment is very comfortable and often feels similar to the sensation of shaving other areas of the body.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Lumecca?

Lumecca operates using photothermolysis, which provides a photofacial through the delivery of a comfortable light treatment.

What are the benefits?

In just 1-3 sessions Lumecca improves the appearance of:

Age Spots (red/brown pigmentations)
Vascular Lesions Such As Facial telangiectasias (spider veins) and poikiloderma
Rosacea (redness)
Freckles
Sun Damage

What areas can be treated?

Lumecca can be used on all areas of the body. The most common areas of treatment are zones that are regularly exposed to the sun. This often includes the face, neck, décolletage, legs, hands and arms.

What steps must be taken before the procedure?

Avoid direct, excessive sun exposure or tanning one month prior to treatment.

What should I expect during and after Lumecca?

During treatment there will be a bright flash of light from Lumecca, and a sensation on your skin that feels like a light snap from an elastic band. Redness and a slight warming of the skin are normal after treatment and usually subside within an hour. Over the next 24-48 hours you may see a darkening of pigmented spots; in the week afterwards the pigmented lesions flake off, leading to an evening out of skin tone. After treating vascular lesions you may see the vein blanch and disappear or a color change in the vessel which dissipates after a few days.

How many sessions are recommended?

An improved skin appearance can be noted after the first session. Multiple sessions provide even better results. Treatment regime depends on the severity of skin damage, skin type, type of treatment (vascular vs sun damage) and energy settings.

How quickly will I see results?

Sun damage and skin complexion results can be seen a few days after the first session. The skin will continue to look younger and more brilliant over time with most visible results after 1-2 weeks. Having multiple photofacial sessions will improve the final result. For vascular treatments such as facial telangiectasias, results can be seen in up to 2 weeks.

Are there any side effects?

Most patients do not experience any side effects and any skin reaction usually resolves within a few hours. Patients may find they are sensitive to sunlight immediately after treatment. It is recommended to avoid direct sunlight and tanning.
