Erbium resurfacing for deeper texture, scars, and lines — with faster healing than fully ablative laser.
ProFractional Therapy is an erbium resurfacing treatment that improves wrinkles, acne scars, and uneven skin tone while allowing faster healing than traditional fully ablative resurfacing. By treating fractional zones rather than the full surface, it produces meaningful resurfacing with shorter recovery.
Topical numbing is applied for 30 to 45 minutes. Your dermatologist confirms depth, density, and any combination protocols (such as adding MicroLaser Peel).
The ProFractional erbium laser creates microscopic columns of treated skin to depths customized for your goals. Untreated tissue around each column accelerates healing.
Pinpoint redness and light scabbing for 4 to 7 days. Smoother, brighter skin emerges over the following weeks. Continued collagen building for 3 months.
ProFractional pricing is structured around the area treated and whether it’s combined with a MicroLaser Peel for layered results. The combination protocols are particularly effective for full-face resurfacing with deep correction at the lip line, eye area, or both.
Layering ProFractional with a MicroLaser Peel produces stronger surface and dermal correction in a single visit. Adding deep eyelid or lip resurfacing addresses the most common areas where age and sun damage show first.
Both are fractional resurfacing lasers. Halo is a hybrid platform combining ablative and non-ablative wavelengths in one pass — ideal for tone, pigment, and pores in 1 to 2 sessions. ProFractional uses a pure erbium laser that reaches deeper into the dermis — ideal for scars, deep folds, and pinpoint correction with slightly more downtime.
ProFractional can be performed in the periorbital area using small internal eye shields placed directly on the eye for safety. This allows much closer treatment of the lash line and lid than typical lasers permit, addressing crepiness, fine lines, and pigment.
Topical numbing is applied for 30 to 45 minutes before treatment. Most patients describe the sensation as warm and stinging during; recovery is mild discomfort similar to a sunburn for 1 to 2 days.
Yes. The combination is one of the most popular protocols at Tribeca Park — ProFractional handles dermal correction while MicroLaser Peel resurfaces the epidermis. Combined pricing starts at $3,250 for full face.
Significant improvement is typically seen after 1 to 3 sessions, depending on your concerns. Acne scars and deep folds may require multiple treatments.
ProFractional can be performed across a range of skin tones, but settings must be carefully tailored for darker skin (Fitzpatrick IV and above) to minimize the risk of pigment changes. Your dermatologist will confirm whether you’re a good candidate.
Most patients can apply mineral makeup once peeling has fully resolved — typically 5 to 7 days post-treatment.
