Smoother texture. Refined pores. Glass-like skin. Advanced scar remodelling.
StriaFusion Pro™ is our signature dual-wavelength fractional laser treatment at Continental Skin Clinic, combining two advanced laser technologies to improve skin texture, stimulate collagen remodelling and address visible scarring on the face and body.
By combining Mosaic fractional erbium-glass laser (1550 nm) with Ultra LaseMD fractional thulium laser (1927 nm), StriaFusion Pro™ works at different depths of the skin to target both deeper textural irregularities and more superficial concerns.
The result is a comprehensive approach to skin resurfacing, designed to create smoother, more refined and even-looking skin.
Whether the goal is a glass-like, filtered skin finish or improving the appearance of acne scars and other textural imperfections, each StriaFusion Pro™ treatment is tailored to the skin’s individual needs.
Available for the face and body at Continental Skin Clinic, King’s Cross, London.
What Is StriaFusion Pro™?
StriaFusion Pro™ is an advanced, non-ablative fractional laser resurfacing protocol developed by Continental Skin Clinic.
It combines two complementary fractional laser wavelengths in one treatment programme:
– Mosaic 1550 nm fractional erbium-glass laser delivers controlled thermal energy into the dermis to stimulate collagen remodelling and improve the appearance of scars, fine lines and uneven skin texture.
– Ultra LaseMD 1927 nm fractional thulium laser targets more superficial layers of the skin to improve visible pigmentation, skin tone, texture and overall radiance.
Together, these technologies allow us to treat skin concerns at different depths rather than relying on a single laser wavelength.
Our aim is not simply to improve the skin’s surface appearance, but to support collagen remodelling and achieve progressive improvements in overall skin quality.
What Can StriaFusion Pro™ Treat?
StriaFusion Pro™ is designed to address a range of skin texture concerns on both the face and body.
Uneven Skin Texture
Fractional laser resurfacing can improve the appearance of rough, irregular or uneven skin texture by encouraging controlled skin renewal and collagen remodelling.
StriaFusion Pro™ combines superficial skin refinement with deeper dermal remodelling to help achieve smoother, more uniform-looking skin.
Acne Scars
Acne can leave behind changes in skin texture, including shallow depressions and atrophic scarring.
The Mosaic fractional erbium-glass laser targets the dermis to stimulate collagen remodelling, while Ultra LaseMD complements the treatment by addressing more superficial skin irregularities.
StriaFusion Pro™ may be recommended for selected types of acne scarring, depending on scar depth, morphology and skin type.
Deeper scars, such as certain ice-pick or tethered scars, may require additional or alternative treatments.
Enlarged-Looking Pores
Pore size is influenced by genetics, oil production and skin structure, but the appearance of pores can become more noticeable when the surrounding skin loses firmness or has an uneven texture.
By improving the quality and texture of the surrounding skin, fractional laser resurfacing may help pores appear less prominent.
Fine Lines and Early Signs of Ageing
As collagen production changes with age, skin can develop fine lines, roughness and a less refined appearance.
StriaFusion Pro™ stimulates skin remodelling to help improve the appearance of fine lines and support smoother, firmer-looking skin over time.
Sun Damage and Uneven Skin Tone
The 1927 nm thulium wavelength is particularly useful for addressing selected superficial pigmentation concerns and visible signs of sun damage.
Combined with fractional erbium-glass resurfacing, StriaFusion Pro™ can improve the appearance of uneven skin tone and texture in suitable patients.
Surgical and Injury-Related Scars
StriaFusion Pro™ may also be used to improve the appearance of selected mature scars on the face and body.
Fractional laser treatment can support collagen remodelling within scar tissue, helping improve visible textural irregularities and, in some cases, scar flexibility.
Treatment suitability depends on the type, age, location and characteristics of the scar.
Glass Skin Laser Treatment – A Smoother, Filtered-Looking Finish
One of the main reasons we developed StriaFusion Pro™ was to offer an advanced laser treatment focused on overall skin quality rather than one isolated concern.
The popular term glass skin describes a complexion that appears exceptionally smooth, refined, even and radiant.
In reality, skin naturally has pores, texture and individual characteristics. Our aim is not to remove these features, but to improve the appearance of uneven texture and create a smoother, more polished-looking finish.
StriaFusion Pro™ approaches this through two complementary processes:
- Deep skin remodelling: Mosaic fractional erbium-glass laser stimulates collagen remodelling in the dermis, helping improve fine lines, textural irregularities and the appearance of pores.
- Superficial skin refinement: Ultra LaseMD fractional thulium laser addresses more superficial texture and pigmentation concerns, helping improve skin tone and radiance.
Together, they provide a more comprehensive approach to achieving refined, glass-like skin.
Unlike a conventional facial, fractional laser resurfacing works through controlled thermal stimulation within the skin. Improvements develop progressively as the skin renews and remodels.
StriaFusion Pro™ for Acne Scars and Skin Remodelling
Scars form when the skin’s normal healing process is disrupted, resulting in changes to collagen structure and skin texture.
Atrophic acne scars, for example, develop when there is a loss of supporting tissue beneath the skin’s surface.
Simply exfoliating the outermost skin layers is often insufficient to improve these deeper structural changes.
StriaFusion Pro™ incorporates the Mosaic 1550 nm fractional erbium-glass laser to create microscopic zones of controlled thermal injury within the dermis. This stimulates a healing response and encourages collagen remodelling over time.
Ultra LaseMD 1927 nm complements the process by treating more superficial skin layers, supporting improvements in overall texture, tone and radiance.
This dual-wavelength approach allows us to address different components of the skin’s appearance within a personalised treatment programme.
It is important to understand that scars cannot always be completely removed. The objective is to improve their appearance, depth and texture where clinically achievable.
Some scars respond better to other treatments, including subcision, RF microneedling, ablative laser resurfacing or combination protocols. Our clinicians will recommend the most appropriate approach following an assessment.
StriaFusion Pro™ for the Face
On the face, StriaFusion Pro™ is primarily used for advanced skin refinement and textural rejuvenation.
Common treatment goals include:
- Smoother, more even-looking skin texture
- Reduced appearance of enlarged pores
- Improvement in superficial acne scarring
- Softening the appearance of fine lines
- Improved skin radiance and clarity
- More even-looking skin tone
- Overall collagen remodelling and skin rejuvenation
Treatment intensity can be adjusted according to skin characteristics, concerns and desired outcomes.
For patients seeking a more polished, filtered-looking complexion, StriaFusion Pro™ offers a technology-led approach to improving skin quality.
StriaFusion Pro™ for the Body
Skin texture concerns and scarring are not limited to the face.
StriaFusion Pro™ can also be used on selected areas of the body to improve the appearance of scars and textural irregularities.
Treatment areas may include:
– Back and shoulders
– Chest and décolletage
– Arms
– Abdomen
– Thighs
– Other suitable areas affected by textural scarring
Body treatments are tailored to the thickness of the skin, anatomical area and type of scarring.
Because healing characteristics differ between the face and body, treatment settings, recovery and expected results will vary.
How Does StriaFusion Pro™ Work?
StriaFusion Pro™ combines two non-ablative fractional laser technologies that deliver energy into the skin at different depths.
Step 1: Mosaic Fractional Erbium-Glass Laser – 1550 nm
The Mosaic laser delivers fractional energy into the dermis, creating microscopic thermal treatment zones while leaving surrounding skin relatively unaffected.
This controlled stimulation initiates a tissue repair response and encourages collagen remodelling.
The 1550 nm wavelength is particularly useful for improving the appearance of:
– Atrophic acne scars
– Uneven skin texture
– Fine lines
– Selected textural scars
– Skin irregularities associated with collagen loss
Step 2: Ultra LaseMD Fractional Thulium Laser – 1927 nm
Ultra LaseMD uses a 1927 nm thulium wavelength that produces fractional thermal effects predominantly within more superficial skin layers.
It is used to improve the appearance of:
– Superficial pigmentation
– Sun-related skin damage
– Uneven skin tone
– Fine textural irregularities
– Dull-looking skin
Why Combine Two Wavelengths?
Different skin concerns affect different layers of the skin.
A single laser wavelength may be particularly effective at one depth but less suited to another.
By combining 1550 nm erbium-glass and 1927 nm thulium technology, StriaFusion Pro™ offers a multi-depth approach to fractional laser resurfacing.
This allows our clinicians to personalise treatment according to the balance of scarring, texture, pigmentation and overall skin quality.
The two wavelengths have complementary roles, although the benefits and safety of the combination depend on treatment settings, skin characteristics and clinical assessment.
StriaFusion Pro™ vs Traditional Fractional Laser Resurfacing
Fractional laser resurfacing is not a single treatment. Different devices use different wavelengths, depths and methods of delivering energy into the skin.
StriaFusion Pro™ uses two non-ablative fractional laser technologies to address different layers of the skin.
Unlike fully ablative laser resurfacing, non-ablative fractional lasers deliver controlled heat into the skin without intentionally removing the entire surface layer.
This may offer a different recovery profile from more aggressive ablative procedures, although redness, swelling, roughness, pigmentation changes and other adverse effects remain possible.
At Continental Skin Clinic, we select treatments based on the clinical concern rather than recommending the same device for every patient.
What Happens During a StriaFusion Pro™ Treatment?
1. Consultation and Skin Assessment
Your clinician will assess your skin, treatment goals and medical history.
For scar treatments, we also evaluate scar type, depth, distribution and previous treatments.
This helps determine whether StriaFusion Pro™ is appropriate and whether other treatments may offer better results.
2. Skin Preparation
The treatment area is cleansed and prepared according to the selected protocol.
Topical anaesthetic may be recommended depending on the treatment intensity and area.
3. Fractional Laser Treatment
The Mosaic and Ultra LaseMD lasers are used according to a personalised treatment plan.
The sequence, coverage and settings are determined by the clinician based on the treatment goals and skin response.
Patients may experience warmth, prickling or a stinging sensation during treatment.
4. Aftercare and Recovery
Following treatment, the skin may appear red, feel warm or develop temporary swelling, dryness and a rough or bronzed appearance.
The intensity and duration of these effects depend on the settings used and individual healing response.
Your clinician will provide specific aftercare instructions, including skincare recommendations and sun protection.
How Many StriaFusion Pro™ Sessions Will I Need?
The number of treatments depends on the skin concern, its severity and the desired improvement.
Patients seeking general skin refinement may have different treatment requirements from those undergoing treatment for acne scars or body scarring.
Scar remodelling is a gradual biological process, and improvements can continue to develop over the weeks and months following treatment.
A course of treatments may be recommended, with appropriate intervals to allow healing and collagen remodelling.
Your clinician will discuss a personalised treatment plan during your consultation.
Is StriaFusion Pro™ Suitable for All Skin Types?
Yes.
Although non-ablative fractional laser technology can be used across a range of skin types with appropriate protocols, suitability depends on several factors, consultations and pre-assessment are important.
Patients with active infections, recent tanning, certain inflammatory skin conditions or a history of abnormal scarring may require additional assessment or an alternative treatment.
Our clinicians assess each patient individually and will recommend treatment only where the expected benefits justify the potential risks.

StriaFusion Pro™ Frequently Asked Questions
Is StriaFusion Pro™ the same as Fraxel®?
No. StriaFusion Pro™ is Continental Skin Clinic’s own treatment protocol combining Mosaic fractional erbium-glass and Ultra LaseMD fractional thulium lasers.
It follows a similar dual-wavelength resurfacing concept to certain Fraxel® treatments, but uses different devices and treatment protocols.
Can StriaFusion Pro™ give me glass skin?
StriaFusion Pro™ is designed to improve the appearance of uneven texture, pores, fine lines and skin tone to create a smoother, more refined-looking complexion.
The term glass skin describes an aesthetic goal rather than a guaranteed medical outcome. Natural pores and skin texture remain.
Can StriaFusion Pro™ remove acne scars?
It may improve the appearance of selected acne scars through collagen remodelling, particularly certain atrophic scars.
Complete scar removal cannot be guaranteed, and deeper or tethered scars may require additional treatments.
Is StriaFusion Pro™ suitable for body scars?
Yes, selected body scars may be suitable for treatment, depending on their type, location, age and characteristics.
Not all scars are appropriate for fractional laser treatment, particularly raised or actively growing scars.
Does StriaFusion Pro™ help with enlarged pores?
Fractional laser resurfacing may improve the appearance of enlarged pores by refining surrounding skin texture and supporting collagen remodelling.
It cannot permanently eliminate pores.
Is StriaFusion Pro™ painful?
Patients may experience warmth, prickling or stinging during treatment. Discomfort varies according to the area, treatment settings and individual sensitivity.
Topical anaesthetic may be used where appropriate.
Is there downtime after StriaFusion Pro™?
Some recovery should be expected.
Temporary redness, swelling, dryness, roughness or bronzing can occur. The duration depends on treatment intensity, skin characteristics and individual healing.
Your clinician will explain the expected recovery before treatment.
Can StriaFusion Pro™ treat pigmentation and acne scars together?
The combination of 1550 nm erbium-glass and 1927 nm thulium lasers may allow selected textural and superficial pigmentation concerns to be addressed within a personalised treatment plan.
However, not all pigmentation conditions are suitable for laser treatment. For example, melasma requires particular caution because heat-based treatments can sometimes worsen pigmentation.
How long does it take to see results?
Some changes in skin texture and radiance may become noticeable after initial healing, while collagen remodelling develops more gradually over the following weeks and months.
Results vary between individuals, and multiple sessions may be recommended.
Can StriaFusion Pro™ be combined with other treatments?
In some cases, yes.
Depending on the skin concern, your clinician may recommend additional treatments as part of a wider treatment plan.
The timing and suitability of any combination must be assessed to minimise the risk of excessive inflammation or complications.
