Enhancing BBL Results with SkinTyte

Targeted Collagen Support & Skin Firmness

If early laxity or crepey texture is part of the concern, SkinTyte may be added to a BBL plan for gentle heating and collagen support.

SkinTyte uses infrared light to warm the deeper layers of the skin while protecting the surface. When paired with BBL, it can support both tone and firmness without adding meaningful downtime.

Common Areas Treated with BBL + SkinTyte

• Face and jawline
• Neck
• Chest
• Arms

Downtime: None

Best for: Mild to moderate skin laxity

SkinTyte can support firmer looking skin, but it is not a replacement for surgery or injectable tightening treatments.

Sciton ProFractional Laser Resurfacing

For deeper texture changes, acne scars, fine lines, and collagen support.

ProFractional is a fractional erbium:YAG resurfacing treatment from Sciton. It treats the skin in tiny, precise channels instead of resurfacing the entire area at once. The surrounding skin stays intact, which helps support healing while still allowing the treatment to reach deeper texture concerns.

At Integrative Dermatology, your provider can adjust the depth, density, and intensity of treatment based on your skin, your goals, and how much downtime you can plan for. That flexibility is one of the reasons ProFractional can be a strong option for acne scarring, deeper lines, and skin that needs more remodeling than a light peel can provide.

What can ProFractional help treat?

• Moderate to deeper lines and wrinkles
• Acne scars, surgical scars, and traumatic scars
• Rough texture and sun damaged skin
• Enlarged pores and uneven tone
• Crepey texture on the face, neck, chest, or hands

What is recovery like?

Recovery depends on how aggressive the treatment is. Most patients can expect redness, warmth, swelling, and a rough or sandy texture as the skin heals. Many people look much better within 5 to 7 days, although deeper settings can take longer.

Texture and firmness continue to improve over the following weeks as new collagen forms. Some patients see a meaningful change after one treatment. Others do best with a series, especially when treating acne scars or deeper lines.

Sciton MicroLaserPeel

For smoother texture, brighter tone, and a refreshed surface.

MicroLaserPeel is a precise resurfacing treatment that removes a very thin layer of damaged surface skin. It is often a good fit for patients who want visible improvement in texture and tone, but do not need the deeper remodeling of ProFractional.

Your provider can adjust the treatment depth based on your skin and your goals. Lighter treatments can be used for a quicker refresh. Deeper treatments may create more peeling and downtime, but can offer more noticeable smoothing.

What can MicroLaserPeel help treat?

• Fine lines and early wrinkles
• Sun damage and brown spots
• Uneven tone and surface pigmentation
• Rough texture, enlarged pores, and dull skin
• Mild acne scarring

What is recovery like?

Most patients have redness and tightness at first, followed by peeling over the next few days. Skin usually starts to look smoother and brighter as peeling resolves, often within 4 to 7 days.

MicroLaserPeel can be done as a single treatment or as a series. During your consultation, we will help decide how deep to treat and how to time it around your schedule.

MicroLaserPeel vs. ProFractional

Question	MicroLaserPeel	ProFractional
What does it focus on?	Surface texture, tone, pigmentation, and fine lines	Deeper texture, scars, wrinkles, and collagen remodeling
How does it treat the skin?	Removes a thin surface layer across the treatment area	Treats tiny channels while leaving surrounding skin intact
How much collagen support?	Mild to moderate	Moderate to significant
Typical downtime	About 3 to 7 days	About 5 to 7 days or longer, depending on settings
Best fit	Fine lines, sun damage, rough texture, and mild pigmentation	Acne scars, deeper wrinkles, texture, skin tightening, and more advanced photoaging

MicroLaserPeel is often the choice for surface refinement. ProFractional is better suited for deeper remodeling. They can also be combined when a patient needs both surface smoothing and deeper collagen support.
