ProFractional Laser Resurfacing at The Standard of Modern Aesthetics (SOMA) is a customizable laser treatment designed to improve skin texture, reduce scarring, and stimulate collagen while maintaining controlled downtime.

A Focused Approach to Skin Repair and Renewal

At The Standard of Modern Aesthetics (SOMA), ProFractional is performed using the advanced Sciton Joule X platform to deliver targeted resurfacing where it is needed most. Instead of treating the entire surface, this fractional approach creates microchannels in the skin to stimulate healing and collagen production. Each treatment is carefully tailored to your skin condition and goals for balanced, natural-looking results.

What Is ProFractional Laser Resurfacing?

ProFractional is an FDA-cleared erbium laser treatment that targets a fraction of the skin at a time, leaving surrounding tissue intact. This allows for faster healing while still achieving meaningful skin improvement.

By creating controlled micro-injuries, the treatment stimulates collagen production and encourages new skin cell growth. At SOMA, ProFractional is used to improve both texture and deeper structural concerns with precision.

ProFractional Recovery

Recovery after ProFractional is moderate but more manageable than full resurfacing procedures. In the initial phase, the skin may appear red and feel warm, similar to a sunburn. Mild swelling and a sandpaper-like texture may develop as the skin begins to heal. Most patients return to normal activities within a few days to about a week, depending on treatment intensity.

Gradual Results

As the skin heals, it becomes smoother, clearer, and more refined. Results continue to improve over several weeks as collagen production increases. SOMA emphasizes proper aftercare and follow-up to support healing and ensure optimal outcomes.

A Targeted, Efficient Resurfacing Option

ProFractional stands out for its ability to deliver meaningful improvement while preserving surrounding tissue. This targeted approach allows for effective results with less downtime compared to more aggressive treatments. At SOMA, ProFractional is often integrated into a broader skincare plan, helping maintain long-term skin health and balanced results.
