For the new or even seasoned skincare enthusiast, fractional facials may seem like daunting territory, especially with what one can expect after their session to get the results they're aiming for.
Fractional lasers target specific layers of the skin to create micro-bruises to encourage skin healing & renewal. It's often great for those who want to work on texture, acne, pigmentation, and tightness, as it can reveal newer skin once the scabs from the micro-bruises heal. Compared to non-fractional lasers, it's relatively less aggressive and allows help from the non-targeted parts of the skin to encourage faster healing.
Although fractional lasers are less aggressive, they still require fewer days on pause to give your skin enough time to heal compared to your routine hydrating facials. However, there's a new Ritual that'll give you the resurfacing effect despite it being a fractional laser without the significant downtime attached. Meet The Skin Reset Ritual.
The Skin Reset Ritual
The Skin Reset Ritual is a fractional, resurfacing laser facial that can target dark spots, sun damage, texture, pores, and tightening. It uses a 1927nm Thulium laser to target the inner layer of the skin (we're talking cellular level!) to boost skin healing, helping dead skin cells have a quicker turnover and unwanted pigmentation within the layers of the skin to fade— all without the significant downtime tied to resurfacing lasers.
What's the difference between The Skin Reset Ritual and the Pore-Refining Ritual?
The Skin Reset Ritual and (Intense) Pore-Refining Ritual are both fractional lasers that could offer the resurfacing effect. These Rituals, however, have very distinct differences and to find out which one best suits you, it's best to see what skin concerns you want addressed and which one suits your pace the most.

All our Rituals start with an Expert Cleanse to ensure your skin is free from buildup, excess dirt, and sebum, making it the best canvas for Your Treatment of Choice.
Topical anesthesia is then applied to your face for 30 minutes, and you may feel the cooling and numbing sensation the longer it sets. We then remove it to proceed to the laser procedure, where you may feel a static-like feeling going over your skin.
After the treatment, you may feel your skin is warmer or look red. Worry not, as it will slowly fade within hours. You'll then get a rundown of the aftercare do's and don'ts and get personalized recommendations for a skincare regimen that will complement your skin and treatment.
