Fractora Chester, Cheshire
Achieve more resilient, youthful-looking and smoother skin.
Achieve resilient and smoother skin with fractora in Chester. This treatment combines a small handheld device and radiofrequency technology to treat damaged skin. The device will stimulate your natural collagen and elastin within the dermis to heal the skin of acne scars, pores, and heavy-pitted skin.
Our fractora in Chester treats multiple areas of the face and body, including eyelids, cheeks, mouth, neck, and hands. Depending on the skin concern and its placement, your session could take up to an hour. During this time, we ensure minimal discomfort and will apply a topical anaesthetic to help keep you at ease.
In just 24 hours, you can resume daily activities and see the beginning effects of the treatment. You may have some redness and red spotting on the treatment area, which will subside within a few days. Best results appear after two weeks, but we recommend a course of three sessions for optimal benefits.
Treatment summary
Our fractora treatment in Chester is restorative for all skin types. Our skin naturally suffers from degradation over time, but some concerns are caused by poor genes. It’s understandable that damaged skin can deplete your self-confidence; that’s why fractora works hard to resurface your skin to make it smooth, bright, and healthy.
Our handheld fractora device utilises RF technology passed through extremely fine needles to pin-prick the targeted area. This creates a healing response that essentially restores your skin to its former glory for up to 12 months before coming back to our cosy clinic for more. Not only will you see improved self-confidence, but aesthetic improvements too.
If you are suffering from acne scarring, uneven texture or poor skin quality, schedule an appointment with Pure Perfection Clinic today. We will discuss all your skin concerns and treatment areas, your budget, timeline, and current treatments and medication before determining if our Fractora treatment in Chester is right for you.

What is Fractora?
Fractora is a hand-held device which utilizes fractional radio-frequency energy to heat the lower layers of the skin, causing a healing response and the stimulation of collagen and elastin within the dermis. This treatment can be used on facial areas that are developing lines and wrinkles, scars or pigmentation.
The skin is gently heated by placing a small probe device against its surface. The RF energy is passed through a series of very small bipolar pins which as well as heating the lower layers of the skin, causes tiny pin-pricks, which the body responds to with the healing response required to increase collagen and elastin. Over time the skin becomes firmer, smoother, more resilient and with a more even tone.

When will I see the results from Fractora?
Visible results can be seen immediately and you may experience some redness and red spotting immediately following the treatment, which will naturally subside. Typically after around 2 weeks, the most noticeable results will appear and improvements can improve for up to 3 months after your treatment.
As Fractora stimulates the production of new collagen to remodel and rejuvenate the skin, the results are typically permanent. Unfortunately, no cosmetic treatment will halt the natural ageing process, so your skin will continue to age, so future treatments are necessary to maintain the superb cosmetic improvements achieved by your initial course
You can achieve noticeable results after just 1 session. However, it is advised that for the very best results possible, a course of 1 to 6 sessions is usually recommended.
If you are experiencing the signs of ageing, have lines, wrinkles or dry and dehydrated skin, if you suffer from acne scarring or uneven skin tone and texture, Fractora could be just the treatment for you.
Each Fractora treatment is unique to your individual skin concern and level of damage. This will determine the aggressiveness of treatment required. Around 45 minutes before the treatment begins, a topical anaesthetic cream will be applied, so that you are fully comfortable throughout the procedure. For more aggressive treatment an injectable anaesthetic may be required. A cold air chiller may be used in conjunction with the treatment so that heat to the surface of the skin is minimized. This helps the Fractora treatment penetrate deeper in to the skin for a more effective result as well as more comfort for you.
As a topical or injectable anaesthetic will be used, prior to treatment, Fractora should not be painful. However, you may experience some heat sensation or tingling on the skin as the device head is passed across your skin. This warm sensation may continue for a few hours afterwards but this is completely normal.
Fractora is a non-surgical procedure which can dramatically improve the look and feel of your skin. However, it’s important that before any treatment can commence here at Pure Perfection Clinic, you attend a no obligation consultation so that your chosen practitioner can assess your individual skin concerns and requirements, check your medical history and ensure you are both fit and well and suitable for the treatment.
For your no obligation consultation, please contact our clinic team to book your initial appointment with one of our medically-qualified and highly-experienced practitioners.
