What Is Microneedling Using Fractora?

Fractora is the most advanced fractional radio-frequency treatment, providing anti-aging improvements on skin tone and texture for a more radiant appearance through microneedling and skin resurfacing.

Microneedling with Fractora delivers RF energy to the skin through an array of pins producing localized heat and small micro-lesion dots in the treatment area. The gentle heat generated by the Fractora pins in the sub-dermal tissue promotes collagen restructuring for skin rejuvenation and an improved appearance in the skin. The methodical scattering of micro-lesions allows the skin to heal faster than if the entire area was ablated.

Medical Estheticians can offer a versatile fractional treatment that can provide non-ablative to minimally ablative results up to 3mm in depth.

Microneedling with Fractora can be used effectively for fine or deep wrinkles, scars or discolored red and brown skin tone. The most common areas of treatment are the lower eyelid, upper eyelid, smile lines, cheeks, mouth and neck.



RF energy heats the skin in a controlled schema to remodel deep collagen and improve the appearance of the skin.

Benefits:

• Microneedling with Fractora delivers improvements in the broadest range of symptoms of aging skin including fine lines, deep lines, texture, pigment irregularities, blood vessels and redness.
• Offers improvements for aging skin that would normally require two, three or even four different technologies.
• Treats vascular lesions such as broken capillaries through thermocoagulation.
• Ablation of the skin promotes skin resurfacing while untreated skin between the pins promotes faster healing of the treatment tissue.
• Versatility of parameters allows the user to vary the depth of ablation, coagulation and heating.

Scientifically proven to increase collagen. This is an excellent treatment to PREVENT aging as well as to TREAT aging skin.

Is It Painful?

Microneedling with Fractora has different treatment options for you; we can taylor your treatment to your tolerance. Sessions are done with lidocaine, a very effective numbing agent and treatments are short. You may choose to have just a few stronger sessions or more lunchtime lighter sessions. The result is the same. We want you to be comfortable. After a session, clients will see slight redness in the treated area, which will lessen within a few hours. Clients are able to return to their daily activities right away if opting for the lunch time treatment. A stronger and more aggressive treatment will require just a few days downtime.

Am I A Candidate?

Microneedling with Fractora is not laser, therefore it does not exclude any skin type such as black or asian skin. Anyone who does not fall under the contraindications below is a candidate. It is recommended for people who are looking for a stronger, more effective skin treatment to address targeted areas that require tightening as well as resurfacing. Scars (acne scars as well as other types), skin texture, pigmentation, wrinkles and fine lines and skin laxity are treated effectively as well as providing a lifted appearance. Please come in for a free consultation to see if you are a candidate. We will only treat you if we feel you can expect great results.

What Results Can I Expect?

Over time clients see a great reduction in the fine lines and laxity of their skin leading to a smoother, younger and refreshed look. Textural differences will even out and sagging skin will appear more toned. most people look 10 or more years younger in just a short time.

How Many Sessions Will I Need?

Typically, lunchtime milder sessions will require between 3 and 6 treatments depending on the severity of the condition. Stronger more aggressive treatments can achieve desired results in as little as 1 session. Individuals with mild laxity or using it preventatively, may be treated in fewer lunchtime milder sessions. Scheduling should be based on a pre-evaluation. Best results will be noticed over time or a series of treatments.
