What is Fine Scan Laser?

Fine Scan Laser is a type of fractional laser that offers maximum effectiveness in treating acne scars and stretch marks. It also helps rejuvenate the skin, reduce fine lines, and tighten pores, showing noticeable changes from the first treatment without causing any wounds post-treatment.

What can FINE SCAN LASER treat?

  • Acne scars, both shallow and deep
  • Reduction of fine lines
  • Skin rejuvenation and pore tightening, enhancing skin health
  • Treatment of stretch marks

Fine Scan Laser Program and Acne Scars

How does Fine Scan Laser work on acne scars?

Fine Scan Laser targets acne scars by emitting a fine laser beam that creates tiny perforations in the skin. This process stimulates the production of new skin cells to replace the damaged ones. The laser also breaks down the tough fibrous tissue that tethers the base of the scar, causing the scar to rise and flatten. Additionally, the heat from the laser promotes the production of new collagen to replace the old, deteriorated collagen, resulting in smoother, tighter skin. The overall effect is a shallower, narrower, and softer acne scar.

Fine Scan Laser Program and Wrinkles ?

As we age, the body starts producing less of the essential substances that keep skin firm, such as elastin, hyaluronic acid, and collagen. This decrease leads to sagging skin, wrinkles, crow’s feet, and fine lines on various parts of the face. Starting at age 25, the production of these substances gradually declines by 1-2% each year. Fine Scan Laser works by penetrating the dermis and delivering energy to the cells responsible for producing collagen fibers. This process stimulates the production of new collagen, resulting in firmer skin and a reduction in wrinkles.

Fine Scan Laser Program and Pores ?

Enlarged pores, often located in the T-zone and cheeks, are usually a result of excessive sebum production. This can also lead to acne. Fine Scan Laser directs laser energy to the skin, stimulating collagen production in the deeper layers and repairing the epidermis. This process tightens the skin, gradually reducing pore size, and improving overall skin texture.

How Fine Scan Laser Improves Stretch Marks

Stretch marks occur when the skin stretches or contracts rapidly, leading to structural changes in collagen fibers that result in a loss of elasticity. This prevents the skin from returning to its original state, leaving visible stretch marks. New stretch marks are typically pink due to increased blood flow and are the most responsive to treatment. Over time, these marks turn white and become harder to treat effectively. Fine Scan Laser significantly improves stretch marks, especially when treated early while they are still pink. The laser stimulates the production of new skin cells and collagen in the affected area, restoring skin elasticity. This process tightens the skin, reduces the appearance of stretch marks, and improves skin texture by reducing the shine associated with old stretch marks.

Highlights of the Fine Scan Laser Program

  • The scabs are very small and difficult to notice, falling off completely within 3-7 days.
  • Minimal redness and swelling, lasting only 20 minutes to 2 hours.
  • Suitable for all skin tones.
  • Noticeable changes from the first treatment session.

How Does the Treatment Feel?

During the treatment, you will feel a sensation similar to small needles lightly pricking the skin. Some areas might feel slightly warm. After the treatment, the skin will feel warm for about 1-2 hours.

Post-Treatment Care for Fine Scan Laser Program

After the Fine Scan treatment, your skin will not develop dark scabs. Instead, the skin will have a pinkish tone similar to a sunburn for about 2-3 days. During this time, the old skin cells will gradually shed, causing the skin to appear darker temporarily. Do not worry about this as it will gradually flake off. Always apply sunscreen when going outside and avoid intense sun exposure for 1-2 weeks post-treatment. Follow your doctor’s advice closely.

Duration of Each Treatment Session

Before treatment, the skin needs to be prepped with a numbing cream for 30-45 minutes. The actual laser treatment takes about 5-20 minutes, depending on the size of the area being treated.

Frequency of Treatments

For optimal results, treatments should be spaced 4 weeks apart, with a total of 5-8 sessions recommended.

When Will You See Results?

Results from the Fine Scan Laser treatment for acne scars, stretch marks, and pore tightening can be noticed to some extent from the first session. However, more noticeable results typically appear after the third treatment session.
