ProFractional Laser: Fractionated Resurfacing
When it comes to skin rejuvenation, not all lasers work the same way. The ProFractional Laser by Sciton is designed to stimulate your skin’s natural healing process at a deeper level — targeting microscopic channels within the deep dermis to trigger collagen remodelling without removing the entire surface of the skin. This approach allows significant improvements in texture, tone, and fine lines, with less downtime than fully ablative resurfacing.
In this blog, we’ll explore how this technology works, what makes it different from other laser treatments, and who may benefit most from it.
What is the ProFractional Laser?
ProFractional is an advanced Erbium 2940 nm fractionated ablative laser that targets deep layers of the skin to stimulate collagen, elastin, and fibroblast activity. This helps your skin naturally repair itself, improving tone, texture, and overall skin quality.

How does it work?
The ProFractional Laser delivers precise erbium energy to create microscopic channels in the skin, sparing surrounding tissue. While preserving islands of skin intact, this allows Nurse Jacklyn to target the deep dermis to repair deep scarring and wrinkles.
Unlike traditional CO₂ lasers, ProFractional's erbium technology minimizes heat buildup, reducing recovery time and risk of thermal damage while achieving equally impressive results.
