Fractional Laser Resurfacing in Brossard — Fotona Er:YAG

What Is Fotona Fractional Laser Treatment?

The fractional laser is a cutting-edge medical-aesthetic treatment offered at Clinique SkinIn, located at Quartier Dix30 in Brossard. Powered by the Fotona SP Dynamis (Er:YAG) technology, this resurfacing treatment acts as a true cellular regenerator. It is designed to renew the skin's surface, smooth out texture irregularities, and treat the visible signs of skin ageing at depth.

How Does This Technology Work on Mature & Textured Skin?

The fractional laser treatment creates micro-columns of thermal regeneration in the skin. By targeting precise areas while leaving surrounding tissues intact, this process triggers deep, natural repair while allowing for a faster recovery than traditional ablative lasers.

This micro-impact process intensely stimulates the skin to deliver visible results:

  • Production of new collagen: Restores firmness and treats mild to moderate skin laxity.

  • Smoothing fine lines and wrinkles: Reduces the appearance of wrinkled skin (especially around the eyes and mouth).

  • Texture improvement: Tightens dilated pores and smoothes skin texture.

  • Correcting blemishes: Visibly reduces acne scars and evens out dull or tired skin.

Ideal for mature skin, damaged by the sun or marked by acne, the fractional laser offers a real personalized youth cure.
