What is Fractional Laser Skin Resurfacing and How Does It Work?

At Géniale, our doctors utilise advanced fractional laser technology to promote skin resurfacing tailored to individual skin types and concerns. Fractional laser works by delivering precise laser energy to targeted areas of the skin. This stimulates the body’s natural healing and collagen production processes, encouraging the replacement of damaged skin with healthier-looking skin. The treatment can address a range of concerns including:
  • Uneven skin texture
  • Pigmentation irregularities (such as sun spots and age spots)
  • Acne and surgical scars
  • Enlarged pores
  • Signs of skin ageing
Suitability for treatment will be determined during your consultation with our doctors.

What to Expect

Consultation

Your initial consultation with one of our doctors includes a thorough skin assessment and discussion of your aesthetic goals and treatment suitability.

Treatment Session

Fractional laser treatment typically involves the application of laser energy to small, controlled areas of skin, promoting skin renewal. The session duration depends on the treatment areas.

After Treatment

Some temporary redness, swelling, or mild sensitivity may occur, generally resolving within a few days. Our doctors will provide detailed aftercare advice to support your recovery. Multiple sessions may be recommended depending on your skin condition and desired outcomes.

Is fractional laser suitable for darker or sensitive skin?

Suitability depends on your skin type, pigmentation, sensitivity, medical history and the particular laser approach being considered. Some skin types have a higher risk of burns or unwanted changes in pigmentation. A doctor must assess your skin before treatment is recommended and explain the risks, possible alternatives and whether another approach would be safer.

Can I have fractional laser treatment if I still have active acne?

Active acne needs assessment before resurfacing is considered. The doctor will review whether inflammation, infection, current medicines or other skin concerns could affect healing or increase the risk of complications. Treatment may need to be delayed, or acne management may be more appropriate initially. Fractional laser should not be assumed to be suitable simply because acne scars are present.

What should I tell the doctor before a fractional laser appointment?

Tell the doctor about recent sun exposure, tanning, skin infections, previous cosmetic procedures, medicines, skin sensitivity and any history of unusual healing or scarring. These factors may affect suitability and preparation. Do not stop prescribed medicines without medical advice. Your treating practitioner should provide specific preparation instructions after assessing your skin and the intended procedure.

How should I care for my skin after fractional laser treatment?

Aftercare depends on the depth and type of treatment and your skin's response. The treated area may become red, swollen, sensitive or temporarily more vulnerable to irritation and sun exposure. Follow your practitioner's instructions about cleansing, skincare, sun protection and returning to normal activities. Contact the clinic if you experience unexpected or worsening symptoms.

If uneven skin colour is your main concern, our pigmentation treatment information explains why the cause of discolouration needs assessment.
