WHAT IS A FRACTIONAL LASER TREATMENT?
Fractional laser skin resurfacing creates microscopic holes in your skin and your body then takes care of the rest. Tiny thermal holes are made without destroying surrounding tissue, allowing the affected areas to quickly heal and remodel your skin’s collagen. The lasers stimulate a natural healing process that works from the inside out, replacing damaged tissue with younger, smoother, healthier skin.
Fractional laser treatments with our Halo, Fraxel, Infini or C02 fractional lasers, resurface your damaged skin to bring out new skin, undamaged by acne scarring. Fractional laser treatments can also be used to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles as well as pigmentation.
WHY VICTORIA PARK MEDISPA?
Victoria Park Medispa Winnipeg offers Halo, Fraxel, Infini and traditional C02 lasers for optimum treatment selection for our clients. Each laser has slightly different properties with C02 laser providing the deeper results but longer downtime following treatment.
Because we offer many proven solutions for skin rejuvenation we work to ensure that you get the treatment that is right for you, or combination that is right for you, not just the treatment we happen to have.
Victoria Park Medispa is operated under the supervision of Dermatologist Dr. Earl Minuk with laser treatments performed by both Dr. Minuk and his highly trained laser technicians.
HOW LONG IS AN ACNE SCARRING TREATMENT?
Depending on the starting point and desired result, clients may have one to four treatments of approximately thirty to sixty minutes. Treatments for pigmentation usually require only one or two visits while treatments for texture, scars, stretch marks, and wrinkles, generally take two to four visits.
Following a fractional treatment, clients can expect three to seven days of downtime of “sunburn-type” redness followed by exfoliation of dead skin before their rejuvenated skin is fully healed. Multiple treatments are scheduled at two or three-week intervals and clients need only avoid sun exposure between them.
HOW SOON CAN I SEE RESULTS?
As the treated skin breaks though the old skin, a fresh layer of new skin is revealed without the same problems of the old. This usually take about a week.
HOW DOES IT FEEL?
We provide numbing cream on the area and on occasion inject lidocaine for total freezing so that only minimal pain is not felt during treatment. Following treatment, clients compare the downtime to feeling to a sunburn lasting 5 – 7 days.
HOW DO I GET STARTED?
A consultation with Dr. Minuk for Acne Scar treatment is FREE. During your personalized consultation we get to understand your skin type, discuss your goals, review before and after photos, and decide on a treatment plan together.
