What to Expect
During Treatment
After applying a topical numbing agent, our expert team uses the Fotona laser to create controlled microchannels deep into the dermis. These microscopic injuries stimulate collagen production while leaving surrounding tissue intact. The treatment is highly customizable & typically takes 60–90 minutes.
Recovery Phase
Mild redness, swelling & a warm sensation are common immediately after the procedure. Over the next few days, you may experience flaking or light peeling. Recovery time varies, but most clients return to their usual routines within 5–7 days. Post-care involves hydrating products & sun protection. Make sure to follow your provider’s after-care instructions.
For Optimal Results
Depending on your skin goals, we typically recommend 1–3 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart. Results build over time as your skin produces new collagen & elastin. Improvements continue for up to six months post-treatment. Annual touch-ups help maintain results.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this better than a facial peel?
Yes. While chemical peels work on the surface, Fotona Deep Fractional Resurfacing targets deep layers of the skin to address scars, wrinkles & other embedded concerns. It delivers more dramatic, long-lasting results.
Can it treat acne scarring?
Yes. This treatment is specifically designed to reduce the appearance of acne & surgical scars. By stimulating collagen & resurfacing the skin, scars become less visible & smoother over time.
How many sessions will I need?
Most clients benefit from 1–3 sessions spaced out over several weeks. During your consultation at Lucere, we’ll develop a plan based on your skin’s needs & goals.
Is the recovery long?
While more intensive than light treatments, downtime is still minimal compared to traditional resurfacing lasers. Expect about 5–7 days of recovery, during which skin may peel or feel tight.
Can I exercise after treatment?
We recommend avoiding strenuous exercise for at least 3–5 days post-treatment to reduce irritation & allow your skin to heal optimally.
Are side effects common?
Mild redness, swelling & a sensation of tightness are normal & typically subside within a few days. Adverse reactions are rare & minimized by following aftercare protocols provided by our team.
Is it suitable for all skin tones?
Yes. Unlike many older laser technologies, Fotona’s fractional system is safe for a wide range of skin tones, including darker complexions. Our trained clinicians adjust settings to ensure optimal safety & effectiveness.
When will I see results?
You may notice early improvements in tone & texture within a couple of weeks. However, the most noticeable changes—like wrinkle reduction & scar smoothing—develop gradually over the following 2–6 months.
How do I care for my skin afterwards?
Use gentle cleansers, rich moisturizers & broad-spectrum SPF daily. Avoid exfoliants or active ingredients like retinol until the skin has fully healed. Your Lucere provider will offer a detailed post-treatment regimen.
