Pearl Fractional

What is Pearl and Pearl fractional and what conditions can it treat?

The Pearl and pearl fractional are resurfacing and volumizing laser treatments that address signs of aging and damaged skin. The laser uses pulses of energy that target deeper layers of skin as well as the surface layer. This results in both immediate improvement in skin with the added benefit of providing long-term benefits . This treatment is gentle, safe and requires minimal downtime.

The Claremore and Pryor pearl fractional treatment stimulates the skin to become more even and smooth, hence the name pearl for pearly smooth skin.
Pearl is called a fractional laser as it only removes a tiny amount of tissue which in turn stimulates the remaining deeper skin layers to produce more collagen. This tightens skin and removes tiny wrinkles. It is called a fractional laser because unlike other lasers (which have different uses) this laser only affects a small portion of the skin.
This fractional treatment is good for acne scars, sun damage and any condition that has left the skin rough and uneven.

Because the laser also stimulates the skin from the deeper levels, it can also improve brown spots, sun spots, liver spots, freckles, age spots and even out skin color such as hypopigmentation (light spots) and hyperpigmentation (dark spots). It may be combined with an IPL or intense pulsed light procedure to clear resistant pigmented areas of the skin. The IPL covers broader areas but does not stimulate the deeper skin layers, thus the two treatments complement each other when used in combination although each works well alone. (See IPL treatment).
