Fractional Laser Resurfacing for Texture, Scarring & Advanced Skin Renewal
Some skin needs encouragement.
Other skin needs reconstruction.
Profractional® is an advanced fractional laser resurfacing treatment designed to dramatically improve skin texture, scarring and overall skin quality by stimulating deep collagen remodelling — while leaving surrounding skin intact for faster healing.
At Dermology, Profractional is reserved for skin that needs real change, not surface polish.
Think of it as:
-
Structural renovation, not redecorating
-
Rebuilding the framework, not smoothing the paint
-
Long-term correction, not short-term glow
What is Profractional?
Profractional is a fractional laser developed by Sciton that creates thousands of microscopic channels in the skin. These controlled micro-injuries trigger the body’s natural healing response, stimulating new collagen and elastin production from deep within the dermis.
Because only a fraction of the skin is treated at a time, healing is faster and safer than traditional fully ablative resurfacing — while still delivering powerful results.
This is precision injury for intentional regeneration.
How Profractional works
Profractional targets the deeper layers of the skin to:
-
Break down old, damaged collagen
-
Stimulate fresh collagen formation
-
Improve skin thickness and strength
-
Smooth uneven texture and scarring
-
Remodel the skin from the inside out
Depth, coverage and intensity are fully customisable, allowing Dermology to tailor the treatment based on your skin concern, tolerance and goals.
What Profractional treats best
Profractional is particularly effective for:
-
Acne scarring
-
Surgical or traumatic scars
-
Deep wrinkles and fine lines
-
Uneven skin texture
-
Enlarged pores
-
Sun-damaged and aged skin
-
Loss of firmness and elasticity
It is one of the most effective treatments for textural skin concerns that topical skincare and lighter treatments cannot correct.
What to expect during treatment
Profractional is performed with appropriate skin preparation and numbing to ensure comfort. During the treatment, clients may experience:
-
Heat and pressure
-
A prickling or scratching sensation
-
Manageable discomfort depending on treatment depth
Because Profractional is adjustable, the treatment can range from moderate to intensive depending on your protocol.
Downtime & healing
Profractional does involve planned downtime, which is part of why it works so well.
Post-treatment, you may experience:
-
Redness and swelling
-
A sunburn-like sensation
-
Microscopic scabbing or roughness
-
Gradual skin shedding over several days
Healing time varies based on treatment depth but typically ranges from a few days to a week. Our team provides detailed aftercare guidance to support optimal healing and results.
Results you can expect
Profractional delivers progressive, long-lasting improvement. As collagen rebuilds over weeks to months, clients typically notice:
-
Smoother skin texture
-
Softening of scars and lines
-
Improved skin firmness
-
More even tone and clarity
-
Stronger, healthier skin overall
This is not instant gratification — it’s earned skin.
Profractional at Dermology
At Dermology, Profractional is rarely performed in isolation. It is often combined strategically with:
-
BBL treatments for pigmentation and redness
-
ClearSilk for calming and recovery
-
PRXPlus or regenerative protocols
-
LED light therapy to support healing
By combining technologies, we maximise results while respecting skin integrity.
Long-term skin benefits
When used correctly, Profractional:
-
Rebuilds collagen architecture
-
Improves skin resilience
-
Delivers results that continue to improve over time
-
Reduces the need for repeated aggressive treatments
It’s an investment in skin structure, not just appearance.

-
Want meaningful improvement in texture or scarring

Are prepared for downtime in exchange for results
