Unlike ablative lasers, which remove the outer layers of skin, the 1540 fractional laser delivers targeted energy to the underlying skin layers, leaving the surface intact. This means shorter recovery times and a safer, more comfortable experience for patients.

How Is the Procedure Performed?
The 1540 fractional laser treatment begins with a thorough consultation, during which our team assesses your skin, discusses your goals, and creates a personalized treatment plan. On the day of the procedure, the treatment area is cleansed, and a topical anesthetic may be applied to ensure your comfort.
The laser handpiece is gently moved across the treatment area, delivering precise pulses of energy to the skin. The fractional technology ensures even coverage while targeting only a fraction of the skin at a time, leaving surrounding tissue intact for faster healing. A cooling device may be used to enhance comfort and reduce any heat sensation during the procedure. The entire process typically takes 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the size and number of areas being treated.
What Is the Recovery Like?
One of the significant benefits of the 1540 fractional laser is the minimal downtime it requires. After your treatment, you can expect the following:
- You may experience mild redness, swelling, or a sunburn-like sensation, which typically resolves within a few days.
- Most patients can resume normal activities immediately, though it’s essential to avoid direct sun exposure and wear sunscreen to protect your skin.
- Over the following weeks, collagen production increases, and you’ll notice gradual improvements in skin tone, texture, and firmness.
- Multiple sessions may be recommended to achieve optimal results, with treatments spaced several weeks apart.
Long-Lasting Benefits of the 1540 Fractional Laser
The results of your Denver 1540 fractional laser treatment develop gradually as your body’s natural processes work to rebuild collagen and repair skin tissue. Patients often see noticeable improvements after the first session, with optimal results visible after a series of treatments. The rejuvenating effects can last for months or even years, depending on factors such as age, lifestyle, and skincare routine.
