Fractora® Skin Resurfacing Kitchener & Waterloo

Fractora® is a minimally invasive skin rejuvenation treatment that uses radiofrequency technology to stimulate collagen production and improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and uneven skin texture and tone. The treatment works by delivering controlled heat energy to the deep layers of the skin, causing the body to produce new collagen and elastin fibers. Fractora® is safe and effective for most individuals and typically requires little to no downtime, with patients able to resume their normal activities immediately following the procedure. Most patients see improvement after just one session, but multiple treatments may be recommended for optimal results.

What Is Fractora®?

Fractora® is a skin rejuvenation procedure that uses radiofrequency energy to improve the skin’s look. It is a non-surgical therapy intended to eliminate fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin texture and tone, and conceal scars and other flaws.

A handheld device is used to administer radiofrequency radiation to the skin during the Fractora® treatment. The energy generates microchannels in the skin, causing the body’s natural healing process to begin. This procedure increases collagen formation, which aids in the plumping of the skin and the reduction of wrinkles.

Fractora® can be utilized on any portion of the body where there is skin laxity or textural inconsistencies, including as the face, neck, arms, and belly. The treatment is suitable for all skin types and can be tailored to each patient’s individual needs.

How Does Fractora® Work?

Fractora® uses radiofrequency energy to stimulate the body’s natural healing response, which triggers collagen production and reduces the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and other skin imperfections. The energy is delivered through a handheld device with tiny pins that penetrate the skin at a precise depth, resulting in a controlled and precise treatment. Fractora® can be customized to treat a variety of skin concerns, and it is safe for all skin types. The treatment requires little to no downtime, and most patients see improvement after just one session. The number of sessions needed depends on the patient’s specific needs and goals.

What Are The Benefits Of Fractora®?

Fractora® offers several benefits, including:

  • Improved skin texture and tone: Fractora® can help improve the texture and tone of the skin by stimulating collagen production, resulting in smoother and more even skin.
  • Reduced appearance of fine lines and wrinkles: By stimulating collagen production, Fractora® can help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, resulting in a more youthful appearance.
  • Safe for all skin types: Fractora® is safe for all skin types and can be customized to address each patient’s specific concerns.
  • Minimal downtime: Fractora® is a minimally invasive treatment that requires little to no downtime, with most patients able to return to their normal activities immediately following the treatment.
  • Versatility: Fractora® can be used on any part of the body where skin laxity or texture irregularities are a concern, including the face, neck, arms, and abdomen.
  • Long-lasting results: Fractora® stimulates collagen production, which provides long-lasting results, with many patients seeing improvement for up to a year or more.

Overall, Fractora® is an effective and safe non-surgical option for individuals seeking to improve the appearance of their skin.

If injected with the U225 device, our state-of-the-art mesotherapy gun (or mesogun), you will experience minor discomfort if numbing cream is not applied or nearly zero pain if numbing cream is applied. It is completely painless if injected with JetPeel, our non-invasive, needleless procedure. Last, topical application won’t hurt, however, before the Fractora are applied, the microneedling or micro-channeling procedure to create microscopic punctures on the skin might introduce minor discomfort.
It depends on the delivery method to be used. For the needles and microneedling, the downtime can be 1-3 days. In this case, you might experience some pinkness, tenderness, and/or minor swelling or bruise immediately after the treatment, which should be resolved within 3 days. For the U225 mesotherapy gun and micro-channeling, it would be zero downtime to 1 day. If JetPeel is used, there is no downtime.

What is Fractora ?

Fractora is one of the most effective non-surgical solutions used to address skin problems such as wrinkles, sagging skin, pigment and complexion, active acne and acne scars, by remodeling skin tissue and stimulating collagen regeneration.

Fractora’s innovative technology allows you to have minimal downtime with maximum results. The advantage of its unique system is that Fractora treats both the outer and deeper layers of skin enabling more significant results than milder treatments like IPL. At the same time, Fractora has much less downtime than a surgical procedure or traditional Co2 laser resurfacing. The most impressive fact is Fractora’s capability to treat darker skin without causing hyperpigmentation, which is common with other skin resurfacing procedures.

SUNSHINE COSMETIC CLINIC & MEDI SPA Fractora

How does fractora work?

Fractora uses fractionated radiofrequency energy to deliver controlled heat to the deep layers of the dermis by microneedles. This works to revitalize and remodel the collagen, which improves the overall look and feel of your complexion. Fractora slows down the effects of aging on the skin and restructures the deep tissue of the skin.

What areas can be treated?

Fractora can be used on any areas that can benefit from skin renewal. The most commonly treated areas include the lower eyelid, upper eyelid, smile lines, forehead, cheeks, mouth, and neck. Face and body areas that exhibit wrinkles, discoloration, or acne scarring are suitable for treatment.

How many treatments will i need?

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

How quickly will i see results?

Visible results can be seen immediately, but typically after two weeks the most noticeable results appear. Improvements continue up to three months after treatment.

SUNSHINE COSMETIC CLINIC & MEDI SPA

What is the benefit of fractionated energy?

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

What are the benefits of fractora?

  • Improved overall skin condition with enhanced complexion and texture, minimized pores, and smoother, more radiant appearance.
  • Reduced fine lines and wrinkles with a firmer and more youthful skin
  • Improved pigmentation and sun damages for skin revitalization/rejuvenation
  • Significant resolution of cystic/active acne and scars (improving acne scarring by 50%)

Can this be used in combination with other treatments?

Yes, Fractora can be used in the same treatment session or a few days after other treatments. Fractora can also be combined with additional energy treatments or injectables to achieve a more extensive full-face result, called a FracTotal Facial. We recommend patients combine Fractora with our PRP therapy to accelerate the skin healing process and enhance the overall results.

When can i put make-up on after treatment?

Since patient downtime is minimal, 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.

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. In addition to reducing their future risk of skin cancer, sunscreens also reduce wrinkles and slow the aging process.
