WhyaddScitonresurfacingtoyourpractice?
The Most Complete Resurfacing Product Line
ProFractional TherapyTM– A minimal downtime
treatment that creates micro-ablated channels deep
into dermal tissue (to treat a variety of pathologies and
stimulate new collagen growth), surrounded by islands
of untreated skin (to promote rapid healing)
MicroLaserPeel ®– A minimal downtime light
resurfacing treatment limited to the epidermis that
evens out skin tone, texture & color, and restores a
healthy-looking, youthful glow to the skin
Deep Resurfacing– A more aggressive
procedure that literally erases wrinkles, pigmented
lesions and other skin irregularities in the
epidermis and dermis

I used CO2 from 1995 until 2000. Then I switched
to Sciton’s dual mode erbium and have stayed with it
ever since. I have been much happier with the Sciton
laser than anything I’ve ever done with CO2. While
I’ve tried erbium lasers from other manufacturers,
the Sciton system is the only one I prefer.

Deep Resurfacing
RobertAycock,MD,FACS“I can tune the laser down to 4 microns or as deep as 1,500 microns. This platform is perfect because you can add or take features away as you see fit. There are also no disposables. This is leading-edge technology. It’s very easy to achieve the results that patients desire.”
JasonPozner,MD,FACS“Having multiple “modes” in one laser gives me the best of all worlds. For example, combining MicroLaserPeel and ProFractional gives my patients quicker results, more textural improvement compared to fractional alone, and no increased healing time.”

Ablation Threshold
You can safely ablate as shallow or as deep as you wish with little thermal damage
A.JayBurns,MD,FACS“People have said over the years that erbium is more superficial, but one year post-operatively I would argue that my erbium results are as good as any CO2 result you will ever get, with much, much less pigmentary changes than you’ll get with CO2. With erbium, you can get a betterresult than CO2 but with less erythema.”
JasonMichaels,MD“I have the ability to treat patients more aggressively or less aggressively in certain areas to achieve an artistic and individualized end result. I can change the ablative effects or the coagulative effects, based on the different areas that I’m trying to treat, while combining several technologies in one setting.”

Sciton’s TRL laser energy impacts the skin and is immediately absorbed by water in epidermal and dermal tissue
Near 100% of the laser’s energy is consumed in tissue vaporization
Virtually no energy radiates into surrounding tissue

Sciton’s obsession with things that matter most…
Over 95% of Sciton lasers ever sold still remain in service, many with more than 10 years of reliable performance.
