Fractora treatment is associated with minimal downtime. However, when treating thin skin like the lower lids, swelling could happen. Lower lid swelling post fracture could range from mild to severe depending on the healing capabilities of the patient's skin.In my practice I recommend the patients to sleep with the head elevated ( on 2 to 3 pillows) for several days after fractora treatment of the face
This is absolutely normal and typically subsides within just a few days after the procedure. Elevation of your head while you sleep will minimize this as well as using ice packs after your procedure. If you are doing a series of Fractora treatments make sure you remind your treatment provider that this occurred on your last treatment. As long as the swelling subsided quickly, no changes to your treatment would be recommended. The thinner skin around the eyes tends to show more swelling in the first few days after any procedure. Your goal is results and the swelling is just part of the process of injury and healing of the skin layers from Fractora
Thermage has no ability to resurface skin, so look at that particular technology as one that provides subtle firming only. Fractora has more capability to affect the epidermis as well as tighten. Fractora employs tiny needles that are inserted into the skin. As to whether or not that would...

Fractora could potentially affect ("melt partially") fillers. This could happen if the fillers are placed close to the skin where fractora will be administered, If the fillers were injected deep in the tissues (eg, Voluma is usually injected deep just above the bone) it very unlikely will affect...
There is no similarity of Fractora to a microwave at all. Fractora (I just had it done yesterday) is a needling device whose energy is limited to the skin alone. It does not penetrate more than a millimeter or two. Microwaves do not selectively heat tissue, they heat everything...
Fractora treatment shock be reformed at least 2 weeks after injectable fillers application (usually hyaluronic acid treatment). However, since bellafill is a filler injected in the skin to treat acne scars, it is possible that is could be affected by fractora treatment. Up to date there is no...
Fractora skin tightening could cause HA fillers to decrease their effects, specially if fractora done right after application of injectable fillers.Fractura should be performed at least 2 weeks after HA filler injection. In my practice, I rather treat first with fractora and then with H...
