Fractional photothermolysis: effective treatment for pigmentation disorders and age spots

What is fractional photothermolysis?

Fractional photothermolysis is a modern laser therapy aimed at treating pigmentation disorders, age spots and other skin irregularities.

‍

This involves splitting the laser into thousands of tiny beams, which only treat microscopically small areas of the skin.

‍

This stimulates the body's own regeneration without damaging the surrounding tissue and ensures a more uniform skin structure.

‍

‍

How does fractional photothermolysis work?

The laser specifically targets pigmented skin cells, which are destroyed by the heat energy. At the same time, the heat stimulates the production of collagen, which makes the skin appear firmer and smoother.

‍

The tiny, treated areas are replaced by healthy, new skin within a few days. As a result, pigment spots fade and the skin gets a fresh, youthful appearance.
