How does ProFractional work?
The secret behind the successful results you'll enjoy with is laser energy that creates thousand of microscopic channels in the skin. These tiny channels are surrounded by areas of healthy skin that does not receive the laser treatments.
Treated areas of the skin invigorate the body's natural healing process and begin to produce new collagen, which plumps the skin and helps to smooth wrinkles, lines, scars and other skin imperfections. The board-certified plastic surgeons at The Plastic Surgery Group in Albany, New York can show you how the results of ProFractional can help you enjoy younger, smoother, healthier skin.
What areas can be treated with ProFractional?
Just about all skin areas can be effectively treated with ProFractional at The Plastic Surgery Group in Albany. The most common areas of treatment include the face, neck, hands and chest. You and your plastic surgeon can discuss your particular needs at your private consultation.

How many ProFractional treatments will I need?
In most cases, 1 to 4 ProFractional treatments are performed over a period of 3 to 6 weeks for maximum results. Your board-certified plastic surgeon at The Plastic Surgery Group in Albany will determine a treatment schedule that meets your individual needs and goals. Your plastic surgeon also may suggest other popular and effective procedures be combined with your ProFractional treatment including MicroLaserPeel™.
What can I expect after my ProFractional treatment?
After your ProFractional treatment you most likely will experience some reddening of the skin in the treatment area. This is usually no more than what you would experience after a light sunburn. In just one to three days most people can return to work and makeup can be applied in just a day or so after treatments. It is important to avoid ultra violet-light because your skin will be more sensitive until you have completely healed. So, stay out of the direct sunlight and always use an effective sun screen. You will find superb medical-grade skin care and sun screen products at The Skin Care Center at The Plastic Surgery Group. Your plastic surgeon will answer your post-treatment questions during your ProFractional consultation.
