Fraxel
At Atlanta MediSpa, we offer Fraxel (also known as Profractional by Sciton), a powerful, all-in-one laser treatment for total skin rejuvenation. Fraxel uses Erbium-YAG energy to penetrate the dermis in a pixelated, dot-like pattern that triggers collagen and elastin production deep within the skin. This controlled damage encourages fresh, healthy skin to regenerate—tightening, brightening, and evening skin tone with visible improvement over time. While Fraxel breaks down scar tissue and forces it to regenerate with healthy collagen, SkinPen® microneedling offers a more gentle approach with just 24 hours of downtime. It mechanically stimulates collagen by creating controlled micro-injuries to the skin—perfect for clients seeking minimal recovery time. Dr. Debra Atkins may combine Fraxel, microneedling, chemical peels, or IPL to deliver superior, layered results—especially in cases of deep acne scars or complex pigmentation. Each treatment plan is personalized based on your skin condition and goals.
Time
A Fraxel (Profractional) laser session typically takes about 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the treatment area and whether additional numbing time is included
Expect an average of 3–4 days of social downtime.
