Skin Rejuvenation with Fractional Resurfacing

September 26, 2022 by A Younger You

There are many skin concerns that might make a person uneasy about their appearance. Common concerns include acne or dynamic wrinkles and fine lines, which many people have experienced at some point in their lives.

At A Younger You Medical Spa, we know how much it means to our clients to have access to treatments and solutions that repair and revitalize their skin. One of our most popular treatments to do exactly that is fractional resurfacing therapy.

What Is Fractional Resurfacing?

We offer fractional resurfacing treatment with Venus Concept technology to fight acne scarring and signs of aging. It's a preferred treatment for many of our patients who want a non-invasive way to fight lines and wrinkles and diminish acne scars.

Fractional resurfacing is just one of several cutting-edge skin rejuvenation treatments we offer to help patients feel great in the skin they have.

Fractional resurfacing for acne scars also is used to retexturize the skin and improve common signs of aging, including:

• Sun damage and dark spots
• Areas of excessive pigmentation, like liver spots
• Dull skin
• Uneven skin tone
• Wrinkles
• Fine lines
• Scars from surgery or an injury

Fractional resurfacing is non-invasive, so there's no long, drawn-out recovery or IV anesthesia associated with it. In addition, there's no prep work to do.

What Is the Fractional Resurfacing Treatment Like?

When you come in to visit us for your treatment appointment, we'll take you back and get you situated so that you're comfortable. Then, if you like, we'll apply a topical anesthetic to the skin to maximize your comfort.

Using a state-of-the-art handheld device, we quickly make passes over the skin in the area you want to treat. The device emits treatment-giving pulses, each of which lasts for less than one second. If you have larger skin flaws, several passes with the resurfacing device might be necessary for effective treatment.

How Does the Treatment Work to Improve Skin?

During a fractional resurfacing treatment for acne scars, wrinkles, lines, or dark spots, pulses of radiofrequency energy are absorbed by the skin. The body converts the energy into heat, which breaks down skin cells that are damaged, over-pigmented, or causing wrinkles and creases.

This heat stimulates the body to increase its natural production of collagen, which is responsible for the creation of healthy wrinkle- and scar-free skin. The old skin cells are replaced with new, healthy ones to give your skin a fresh, youthful look.

There is little to no downtime for recovery required after your fractional resurfacing treatment with Venus Concept technology. Your short recovery time depends on the extent of the treatment you are receiving, how large of an area will be treated, how many passes are required, and how many areas are treated.

Many of our patients leave our office with revitalized skin and return to their normal daily routines.

Are You a Good Candidate for Fractional Resurfacing Treatments?

You are likely a good candidate for this skin therapy if you:

• Do not have an infection or active lesion or injury at the site to be treated
• Are in need of a non-invasive way to improve signs of aging
• Have acne scars you want to diminish
• Have dark spots from sun damage or aging
• Do not have any conditions that affect your body's ability to heal
• Do not have a history of excessive scarring

This popular treatment is precise, so we can treat specific locations on the skin without causing any damage to nearby skin cells. This allows us to address common skin flaws on the face as well as almost any other area of the body.

Some of the most popular areas of the body that our patients have treated with fractional resurfacing therapy include:

• Wrinkles around the eyes
• Lines around the mouth
• Stretch marks on the abdominal area
• Textural irregularities on the arms or legs
• Acne scars on the face and back
• Surgical scars on the legs or abdomen

Regardless of where on the body you would like to get treatment, the best place to start is with a free personal consultation with us.
