What happens after a ProFractional laser treatment?

How it Works
01. Consultation
A consultation is super important for getting to know you and your goals! We start with a health history, skin analysis, and discussion of your current skincare regimen.
02. Determine Treatment
From all of this information, we will determine your candidacy for laser treatment and recommend a customized plan to get you from where you are to where you want to be. If you're ready for your first ProFractional session, we can get started!
03. Treatment
While you lay back and relax, your provider applies the ProFractional device to your pre-numbed treatment area. It delivers pulses of tunable laser energy to trigger your skin's healing and cell turnover.
04. After Care
After your ProFractional laser resurfacing, we provide step-by-step instructions on how to care for your skin. We will ensure your treatment was successful and can recommend additional ways we can help you look and feel your best.
Revealing Your Best Skin Ever
With our ProFractional laser in Toledo, you don’t have to put your life on pause to see real results. Our specialists use this ultra-precise, fractionated laser technology to trigger a deep healing response for improvements you can see and feel.
1
Leave Scars Behind You
Scars are the aftermath of your skin repairing itself, which is an incredible thing, but that doesn’t mean you have to simply accept them if they affect your confidence. ProFractional laser resurfacing creates tiny channels into scar tissue, breaking up old, rigid collagen deposits and triggering your natural healing response, boosting new collagen production.
Think of it as aerating soil—by strategically creating small openings, this treatment allows new, healthier skin to take root. Over time, these micro-injuries help your skin not only fade scars from acne, injuries, or surgeries, but also help your skin stay healthy. Unlike traditional “full-field” laser resurfacing, ProFractional only targets a fraction of skin at a time, allowing more precise treatment for more dramatic improvements with less downtime.

Erase Lines & Wrinkles
Facial expressions are a part of life, but that doesn’t mean wrinkles have to be. Without enough collagen and elastin, your skin can’t “bounce” back to its natural, rested position, slowly deepening lines with every smile, frown, and laugh. We use the ProFractional laser in Toledo to reverse this process and remodel your skin beneath the surface, triggering collagen and elastin production.
While collagen proteins act as your skin’s building blocks, elastin fibers give your skin the ability to stretch. Over time, your skin plumps itself from the inside out, smoothing fine lines and softening deeper wrinkles—naturally.
3
Ditch the Dryness
Just like remodeling a home, improving your skin starts by strengthening its foundation. When your skin loses collagen, elastin, and moisture, it becomes thinner and more delicate, which can make its texture resemble that of crinkled crepe paper.
ProFractional laser resurfacing gives your skin the resources it needs to rebuild its foundation, thickening and strengthening your skin’s structure over time on a cellular level. Plus, our specialists use this laser to remove dull, dry skin on the surface. This not only reveals brighter, healthier-looking skin now, but also allows skincare products to penetrate deeper into your pores, making at-home care more effective.

Frequently Asked Questions About ProFractional Laser
Before your appointment, there are a few things you should do—and not do—to ensure the best results from ProFractional laser resurfacing, including:
- Avoid direct sun exposure for at least 4 weeks, applying SPF 30+ sunscreen and wearing protective clothing when you need to be outside.
- The week before your appointment, stop using skincare products with harsh active ingredients like AHAs, BHAs, and retinoids and exfoliants to avoid sensitivity.
- If you are prone to cold sores, we may recommend using an antiviral medication to prevent flare-ups.
- Do not use self-tanners, wax the treatment area, or receive aggressive skin treatments in the weeks leading up to your appointment.
- Keep your skin hydrated by drinking water and using a gentle, nourishing moisturizer to strengthen your skin’s barrier and support the healing process.
During your consultation for the ProFractional laser in Toledo, your provider will review all of these steps and answer any questions you have to ensure you feel confident going into your treatment.
ProFractional® is a revolutionary erbium laser designed by Sciton to improve your skin’s texture, tone, and firmness by replacing old skin cells with new, stronger, healthier, collagen-rich cells. Unlike traditional full-field laser resurfacing, which removes an entire layer of skin, our ProFractional laser in Toledo treats small portions at a time, making it more precise.
By creating tiny channels into your skin in a grid-like pattern, this laser activates your body’s healing response to replace damaged skin without harming the healthy tissues around it, making for a faster recovery. This technology is highly customizable, allowing our experts to address your specific concerns in your specific problem areas, from superficial lines to deeper wrinkles and scars. Now, you can get the results you deserve without the hassle.
Everyone’s experience with the ProFractional laser is a little different, especially because it’s a customizable treatment we can tune to your needs. We make sure everyone remains comfortable throughout their treatment, but you should expect to feel the heat of the laser.
We usually recommend to take the rest of the day, and maybe the next day, away from your normal routine to ensure your skin stays fully protected from any external factors.
Aftercare is key to maximizing your results from ProFractional laser resurfacing, and at Blush Aesthetics, we’re all about making the most of your investment. Our specialists walk you through exactly how to help your skin recover from ProFractional laser resurfacing so you can enjoy the best results for the longest time.
During the first 48 hours, you can expect your skin to feel slightly warm and red, similar to the sensation of a sunburn. We recommend using a gentle cleanser and lukewarm water to cleanse your skin and applying the healing balm we provide afterward to rebuild your skin’s moisture barrier. We know it can be tempting, but do not exfoliate, scrub, or pick at your skin—allow it to heal on its own.
Within 3 to 5 days of your treatment, you may notice your skin start to lightly peel. Don’t worry—this is all part of the process! Continue using a gentle cleanser and moisturizer and always apply SPF 30 or higher, even when you’re inside, and avoid direct sun exposure for now.
About a week after your treatment, your skin will start to rebuild, so you can reintroduce skincare products with active ingredients like retinol into your routine once your provider gives you the green light. You should still prioritize hydration, using formulas with hyaluronic acid and peptides to support healing.
Your skin will continue to produce more collagen and elastin for weeks after your treatment, gradually improving your complexion. Continue to use sunscreen and prioritize hydrating, medical-grade skincare to maintain your smooth, firm, glowing skin long-term!
Your specific treatment plan may call for more or fewer, but most patients find their best results after a series of 1 to 3 ProFractional treatments, followed by semi-annual or annual maintenance treatments. Depending on your overall aesthetic treatment plan, we may recommend alternating between different treatments for subsequent visits to continue building upon the initial results of your ProFractional session!
Initial results can start to appear after initial swelling and redness goes down. However, your skin will continue to improve over time, with most finding their skin condition getting better over the next 8 weeks.
