Fractional laser is an amazing and highly effective treatment in our office. We use the laser treatment to help with acne scars, large pores, fine wrinkles, tissue collagen loss, scars, sebaceous hyperplasia, active acne, and for brightening dark pigmentation. Although there are very strong fractional lasers such as CO2 laser, we use lighter treatments for corrective skincare and maintenance of results. Our Thulium fractional laser, clear and brilliant laser, and Ultra Thulium laser are excellent options in our clinic. We also perform CO2 fractional and erbium depending on skin tone and tolerance for downtime. Patients do have to use a Melarase cream before and after treatment to help further reduce pigmentation after laser. Dark spots can improve with these treatments. I recommend fractional laser for incisional scars as well, especially after plastic surgery. Best,Dr. Karamanoukian Realself100 Surgeon

Hello I. While the laser should be a resurfacing laser (CO2 or Erbium) to create improvement with skin texture such as pore size, lasers do not think for themselves. Your outcome will depend on who is doing the procedure and how much experience they have in creating the kind of results you desire. Best to look for before and after photos and attend a couple consultations rather than focus on the brand of laser.
The Sciton Halo laser has been proven to reduce pore size. This laser is available on the Sciton Joule X platform. You can do a provider search on the Sciton website
