Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
The Tetra Pro Aggressive Ablative Fractional Laser is a high-intensity skin treatment that uses fractional CO2 laser technology to perform deep skin resurfacing. It targets severe skin concerns such as deep wrinkles, extensive pigmentation, and significant textural issues by delivering intense laser energy to the deeper layers of the skin.
This laser treatment works by creating controlled micro-injuries in the skin with fractional CO2 laser energy. These micro-injuries stimulate the body’s natural healing process, leading to the production of new collagen and elastin. The result is significant skin resurfacing, which helps to smooth out deep wrinkles, improve skin texture, and correct severe pigmentation.
During the treatment, you may experience a sensation of heat and discomfort as the laser energy is applied. Afterward, expect some redness, swelling, and peeling, which are common and typically resolve within a few days to a week. Due to the aggressive nature of the treatment, there will be a longer recovery period compared to milder options.
The number of sessions required varies based on the severity of your skin concerns and desired outcomes. Most clients achieve noticeable results after 1 to 2 sessions of the Tetra Pro Aggressive Ablative Fractional Laser. Treatments are generally spaced several weeks apart to allow for adequate healing and optimal results.
Yes, the Tetra Pro Aggressive Ablative Fractional Laser is safe when performed by trained and experienced professionals. It is a well-established treatment with a strong safety profile. However, because it involves more intensive resurfacing, it is important to consult with a skincare specialist to ensure it is appropriate for your specific skin type and condition.
