The treatment can cause heat, prickling or a stinging sensation. Topical anaesthetic may be used before treatment depending on the treatment intensity and area being treated.

Yes. iPixel Er is a fractional resurfacing treatment and generally involves more downtime than non ablative treatments such as Laser treatments.

Redness, warmth, swelling and a rough or sandpaper-like texture are common during the initial healing period. The duration of recovery depends on the treatment intensity and individual response.

The skin will initially undergo a healing process before improvements become apparent. As collagen remodelling continues, gradual improvements in texture, scarring and overall skin quality can develop over the following weeks and months.

Multiple treatments may be recommended depending on the concern being treated.

Yes. iPixel Er can be particularly useful for textural acne scarring by stimulating collagen remodelling and resurfacing areas of uneven skin.

The response depends on the type, depth and severity of the scarring, and some acne scars may require a combination treatment approach.

Yes. By resurfacing the skin and stimulating collagen remodelling, iPixel Er can help reduce the appearance of enlarged pores and create a smoother, more refined skin texture.

iPixel Er may improve certain superficial pigmentation and uneven skin tone through controlled resurfacing. However, patients who are prone to pigmentation require careful assessment and treatment planning, as resurfacing procedures can also carry a risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

The number of treatments depends on your skin concerns, treatment intensity and desired outcome. A course of approximately 2–4 treatments may be recommended, with appropriate intervals between treatments to allow the skin to fully recover.

Healing time varies according to the treatment intensity and individual skin response. Redness, swelling and roughness are expected during the early recovery period, followed by gradual improvement as the skin regenerates.

Your clinician will provide a detailed day by day aftercare plan based on your treatment settings.

This depends on the intensity of treatment and your individual tolerance for visible redness and swelling. Unlike non ablative treatments, iPixel Er produces a visible healing response, so some patients prefer to allow several days away from social or professional commitments.

Suitability depends on your skin type, pigmentation risk, current skin condition, medical history and treatment goals. Particular care is required for patients with darker skin types or a history of post inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

A consultation and skin assessment are essential before treatment to determine whether iPixel Er is appropriate and what treatment settings are suitable for your skin.
