How does it work? SharpLight’s treatment uses an advanced Er:Yag 2940 Fractional Laser. The treatment is unique since unlike tradi- tional lasers that ablate large areas of the skin, the Fractional Laser ablates only a ‘fraction’ of the skin. It does this by ablating micro-columns in the skin. The columns are separated by healthy tissue, which quickens the recovery period. The depth of the micro-columns can be adjusted to reach the source of the scarring. Following the ablation, the body replaces scarred skin with structurally correct healthy tissue, the scar making it significantly less noticeable. Frequently Asked Questions Q.
