“The ProFractional laser is an excellent tool for treating fine lines, skin laxity, and scarring. I often recommend the ProFractional laser for both my reconstructive and cosmetic patients.

Most Popular Procedures to Pair With ProFractional™

  • BBL (BroadBand Light): Combining fractional laser resurfacing in Columbus with BBL addresses both texture and pigmentation concerns for comprehensive skin rejuvenation. Many patients benefit from this powerful combination approach.
  • HALO Laser: For patients seeking more comprehensive resurfacing, Halo combines ablative and non-ablative wavelengths and can be used strategically with ProFractional treatments.
  • Microneedling: While ProFractional offers more aggressive collagen stimulation, some patients benefit from maintenance microneedling between laser sessions.
  • Bioregenerative Treatments: Adding platelet-rich plasma or fibrin after ProFractional treatment can accelerate healing and enhance collagen production for superior results.
  • TRL (Tunable Resurfacing Laser): Our most advanced laser option offers customizable treatment depth and intensity with results lasting up to five years or longer. Bioregenerative treatments can enhance healing after TRL.

Pricing for Fractional Laser Resurfacing in Columbus

ProFractional laser treatments range from $1,500 to $2,500 depending on treatment area and intensity. Unlike other fractional lasers, ProFractional is designed to deliver significant results in fewer treatments rather than requiring a series of 3-4 sessions. Adding bioregenerative treatments like PRP or PRF may increase the cost but can enhance your results and reduce recovery time. Your initial $150 consultation fee can be applied toward your treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions About ProFractional™ Laser Resurfacing

ProFractional is a fractional ablative laser, meaning it removes microscopic columns of skin tissue while leaving surrounding tissue intact. This fractional approach allows for more aggressive treatment than non-ablative lasers like BBL, but with faster recovery than traditional full-surface ablative lasers. The Sciton platform allows precise control over treatment depth and density for customized results.
Most patients experience 7-10 days of initial healing followed by several weeks of diminishing redness that can be concealed with makeup or tinted sunscreen. We provide detailed aftercare instructions and support to ensure optimal healing and results. Our team remains available throughout your recovery to answer questions and address any concerns that arise during the healing process.
The number of treatments depends on your specific concerns and desired outcome. While every patient is different, we are usually able to deliver real results with a single treatment. Unlike other fractional lasers, our ProFractional treatment is not designed to be performed in a series of 3-4 treatments. During your consultation for laser skin resurfacing in Columbus, we’ll develop a treatment plan tailored to your needs.
There is mild discomfort during and immediately after the procedure, but our goal is to reduce this as much as possible with numbing cream, oral medication, and local injections if indicated. Most patients find the treatment very tolerable with our comprehensive comfort measures in place.
Yes! While facial treatments are most common, ProFractional can effectively treat stretch marks, scars, and sun damage on the chest, hands, arms, and other body areas. Treatment parameters are adjusted based on the specific body location and skin concern being addressed.
You’ll notice some improvement within the first few weeks as the skin heals, but your results–and the health of your skin–will continue to improve for 3-6 months.
