MDF Fractional Resurfacing Laser

Description

MDF fractional resurfacing laser is a non-invasive skin treatment that uses laser technology to improve the skin’s texture and appearance. The laser uses Hollywood Spectra to reduce acne scarring, and enlarged pores and rejuvenate the skin. It creates microscopic columns of thermal damage in the skin, stimulating the body's natural healing process and collagen production. This method treats specific areas while leaving surrounding skin intact, promoting faster recovery.
