How fractional laser works
The laser creates thousands of microscopic treatment zones. Because healthy skin is left between them, healing is quicker than with full-surface resurfacing. Over the following weeks the skin replaces treated tissue and builds new collagen.
What it can help
- Shallow boxcar and textured acne scars
- Enlarged pores and rough texture
- Fine lines and dullness
Fraxel vs CO2 vs RF microneedling
Non-ablative Fraxel keeps the surface largely intact and has shorter recovery. CO2 laser is ablative and can achieve more per session but with longer downtime. Potenza delivers RF at depth and is often chosen for rolling scars. The doctor may combine approaches.
Aftercare
Skin may feel like a mild sunburn and look slightly bronzed or dry for a few days. Moisturise well, avoid exfoliants and retinoids until the doctor advises, and use sunscreen daily. If you take isotretinoin, resurfacing is usually postponed and the doctor will advise on timing.

Fraxel Laser FAQ
How much does Fraxel laser cost in Busan?
At Daybeau Clinic Seomyeon, one U-Pulse Fraxel session costs ₩25,000 for a first visit, excluding VAT. The number of sessions is recommended after a skin assessment.
Is Fraxel ablative or non-ablative?
U-Pulse Fraxel is a non-ablative fractional laser, meaning it heats microscopic columns of skin without removing the surface, which usually allows shorter recovery than ablative CO2 laser.
When will I see results from Fraxel?
Skin may look smoother within a few weeks, but collagen remodelling continues for months, so results typically build gradually over a series of sessions.
