Resurfacing for
smoother texture, firmer
skin, and a clearer tone

Fractional laser is one of the most reliable treatments for improving skin texture when creams and facials are not enough. It is used to refresh the surface of the skin and stimulate collagen, helping soften lines, refine pores, and improve the look of scars and uneven tone.

At Mayam Aestetic, fractional laser is planned carefully around your skin type, your concerns, and your recovery comfort. The goal is steady improvement that still looks like you, just healthier, smoother, and more even.

At a glance

Fractional laser may be recommended if you are dealing with:

  • Acne scars or post-acne texture
  • Enlarged pores and rough skin
  • Fine lines, especially around the eyes and mouth
  • Sun damage and uneven pigmentation
  • Stretch marks in selected cases
  • Overall dullness and loss of firmness

Your clinician will confirm whether fractional laser is the right match for your skin, or whether another option will give a safer, cleaner result.

What a session feels like

Most sessions begin with skin preparation and numbing (where appropriate). During the treatment, you may feel heat, mild stinging, or a snapping sensation, depending on the intensity and the area being treated.

Afterwards, the skin often looks flushed, similar to a sunburn. Some swelling is normal, especially around the eyes. Over the next few days, you may notice dryness, tightness, and light flaking as the skin renews itself.

Downtime and results

Fractional laser is not a one-day miracle, and that is part of why the results look natural.

Typical timeline (varies by skin type and intensity):

  • Day 1–2: Redness and warmth, mild swelling possible
  • Day 3–5: Dryness and fine peeling or “sandpaper” texture
  • Week 1–2: Tone looks fresher as the surface settles
  • Weeks 3–8: Collagen response continues, texture gradually improves

For deeper scars or stronger settings, downtime can be longer. Your clinician will advise what to expect based on your plan.

Who it is suitable for

Fractional laser can be an excellent choice, but it is not suitable for everyone at every moment. A proper assessment matters, especially if you have pigmentation concerns or a history of sensitivity.

You may need a different plan, or a delayed schedule, if you have:

  • Active acne flare-ups, infection, or cold sores in the area
  • Recent tanning or heavy sun exposure
  • Very reactive skin or uncontrolled inflammation
  • A history of abnormal scarring
  • Pregnancy or other medical factors requiring caution

At Mayam Aestetic, the safest result is always the priority. If fractional laser is not the best option for your skin right now, you will be guided to an alternative that makes more sense.

How many sessions
do most people need?

This depends on the concern being treated.

  • For general texture, pores, and early lines, some people see improvement after 1–3 sessions.
  • For acne scarring, it is common to plan 3–6 sessions, sometimes more for deeper scars.
  • For pigmentation and sun damage, the plan may combine fractional laser with other therapies to keep the outcome even and stable.

Spacing is also important. Treatments are usually separated by a few weeks to allow full healing and collagen rebuilding.

Aftercare that
protects your result

Aftercare is simple but important. Most issues after laser come from friction, picking, or sun exposure too early.

Basic guidance often includes:

  • Use a gentle cleanser and a soothing moisturiser as advised
  • Avoid scrubs, acids, and retinoids until cleared by your clinician
  • Do not pick flaking skin
  • Apply high-protection sunscreen daily, even indoors near windows
  • Avoid heat exposure (steam rooms, very hot showers) in the early phase

Your clinician will tailor aftercare to your treatment intensity and skin needs.

Why the approach
at Mayam Aestetic is different

Fractional laser is not only about the device. The quality of the result depends on correct diagnosis, conservative energy choices when needed, and consistent follow-up. At Mayam Aestetic, treatment settings are chosen based on what your skin can heal beautifully, not what looks dramatic on day one.

If your goal is smoother texture, refined pores, softer lines, and a clearer tone, fractional laser can be a strong option when it is planned properly.
