Section 9: Fractora Treatment
Information
Move to adjacent areas with no overlapping of side-electrodes (30-50%
overlap).
Occasionally, additional 1-2 passes may be applied to reinforce results on the
full area or on selected spots. Gaps may be treated after the full area is done.
When combining 2 tip types on the same area, apply the deeper treatment
first and follow with the more superficial treatment. Allow a few minutes
between passes to check skin response – the darker the skin, the longer the
intervals.
The endpoint is substantial erythema and edema, visible ablative craters, and
burnt tissue smell often accompanied by tingling heat sensation.
Treatment Schedule
The number of treatment sessions depends on the individual patient and treatment
aggressiveness and may vary from 1-5 sessions. Treatments are typically repeated
every 3-6 weeks.
It is recommended to schedule follow-up session 2-3 days after the treatment to
ensure safe healing process.
Treatment should be concluded when the results are satisfactory to the patient or
according to the physician's discretion. Generally, 3-5 sessions are needed for mild to
moderate depth settings. It is not typical to perform more than five consecutive
sessions. In some instances, 1-2 sessions may be sufficient.
Post-Treatment Recommendations
After each treatment session, the physician should advise the patient on proper care.
Cool the skin for 10-20 minutes.
Emollient cream or occlusive dressing could be applied to the treatment area.
Alternatively, prophylactic antibiotic treatment may be prescribed for 1-3 days
post treatment. Patient is to contact the physician if there is any indication of
infection, excessive swelling, redness, undue pain, or any other unusual or
untoward symptom.
Tiny scabs may appear after 1-3 days and stay for several days following the
treatment. The scabs should not be touched or scratched even if they itch, and
should be allowed to flake off naturally.
Blisters may be treated with a prescribed antibiotic ointment or burn treatment
cream as per physician's discretion.
