Sciton Laser Modalities

Sciton laser treatments allow us to address pigment, redness, acne, texture concerns, and skin laxity with greater precision. By combining advanced light and laser technologies, we can tailor treatment to your skin, goals, downtime, and long-term maintenance plan.

Treating Skin with Our Signature Surgical Precision

At Plastic Surgery Group at City Centre, Sciton laser modalities are offered as part of a broader, surgeon-informed approach to skin health. With seven Royal College–certified plastic surgeons and deep experience in both aesthetic and reconstructive care, we understand how skin behaves, heals, and ages over time. That perspective allows us to use laser technology more deliberately, so every treatment is selected with long-term outcomes, not short-term fixes, in mind.

What Are Sciton Lasers?

Sciton laser modalities are a suite of advanced light- and laser-based technologies designed to improve skin tone, texture, clarity, and overall skin health. These systems use targeted wavelengths of light or laser energy to treat specific skin concerns with precision and minimal disruption to surrounding tissue. Depending on the modality, treatments may use:

BroadBand Light (BBL)

A form of intense pulsed light (IPL) that heats the upper layers of skin, stimulating cellular regeneration and improving pigmentation and vascular concerns.

Fractional Laser Energy

Creates controlled micro-injuries that trigger collagen production and skin renewal.

Infrared Light

Gently heats deeper layers of skin to improve firmness and elasticity.

These mechanisms activate the body’s natural healing response, replacing damaged cells, stimulating collagen, and restoring a more even, healthy appearance.

Sciton Benefits

The ability to address multiple concerns in a single, efficient treatment session
Customizable treatment settings tailored to your skin type, goals, and tolerance
Non-invasive options that reduce the need for more aggressive procedures
Treatment versatility across the face, neck, chest, and body
Minimal disruption to your daily routine, with little to no downtime for many modalities
Compatibility with other treatments, including injectables and surgical procedures
A structured, long-term approach to maintaining skin quality over time
Results can be built gradually through a series of sessions or maintained with periodic treatments, allowing your plan to adjust as your skin changes
Rather than relying on one-time correction, Sciton technologies give us the ability to care for your skin in a way that is consistent, measured, and designed to last

Are You a Good Candidate for Sciton Laser Modalities?

Sciton laser treatments are highly versatile, but they are not one-size-fits-all. Before recommending any modality, your provider will carefully evaluate a range of factors to ensure the treatment is both safe and appropriate for your skin. During your consultation, we consider:

Your skin type and tone: Certain wavelengths and settings are better suited for specific skin types to minimize the risk of pigmentation changes.
Your primary concerns and goals: Whether you are treating pigmentation, redness, acne, texture, or early laxity helps determine which modality—or combination—is most effective.
Severity and depth of the condition: Surface-level concerns may respond to lighter treatments, while deeper damage may require more advanced or staged approaches.
Medical history and skin conditions: Conditions such as active infections, certain dermatologic disorders, or a history of abnormal scarring may influence treatment decisions.
Medications and recent treatments: Use of photosensitizing medications, isotretinoin, or recent peels/lasers can affect timing and safety.
Sun exposure and lifestyle: Recent tanning or significant sun exposure may require postponing treatment to reduce the risk of complications.
Tolerance for downtime: Some modalities involve minimal recovery, while others require a few days of healing. Your schedule and preferences help guide the plan.
Consistency and long-term expectations: Many treatments work best as part of a series or maintenance plan, so your willingness to follow a structured approach matters.
Treatment area: Different areas of the body respond differently and may require adjusted settings or alternative modalities.
Overall skin health: Hydration, barrier function, and baseline skin condition all play a role in how well your skin responds and recovers.

In some cases, we may recommend preparing your skin before treatment—or suggest an alternative approach—if it better aligns with your safety and long-term results. Our goal is not simply to perform a treatment, but to ensure it is the right treatment for you.

What to Expect Before, During, and After

Consultation

Your consultation is the foundation of your treatment plan. We evaluate your skin, discuss your concerns, and recommend the most appropriate Sciton modalities. Pricing varies depending on the treatment area, technology used, and number of sessions required.

Procedure

While each modality differs slightly, most treatments follow a similar process:

Skin is cleansed and prepared
Protective eyewear is applied
A handheld device delivers targeted light or laser energy
You may feel a brief warming or snapping sensation
Treatments typically last 5 to 30 minutes, depending on the area

Many treatments are well-tolerated and do not require anesthesia.

Recovery and Results

Immediately after: Mild redness or warmth, similar to a light sunburn.
1–3 days: Possible darkening of pigment or light flaking. Most patients experience little to no downtime and can return to normal activities quickly, with proper sun protection.
1–2 weeks: Clearer, brighter, more even skin begins to appear.
Ongoing: Collagen stimulation and skin improvement continue over time.

Sciton Laser Modalities We Offer

A comfortable, efficient hair reduction treatment that uses gentle, repeated pulses of light to heat hair follicles gradually. This approach allows for smoother treatments across larger areas with less discomfort than traditional methods.

SkinTyte™

Infrared light technology that gently heats the deeper layers of the skin to stimulate collagen production. Over time, this leads to firmer, tighter-looking skin, particularly in areas prone to early laxity such as the jawline and neck.

Hybrid resurfacing treatments that combine multiple wavelengths to target both the surface and deeper layers of the skin. These treatments improve texture, pigmentation, and overall skin quality in a single, highly customizable session.

SkinSmooth 640S

A complementary treatment that delivers energy at precise depths to refine texture and enhance skin clarity. Often used as a finishing step to improve overall smoothness and amplify results from other treatments.

ForeverBody™

A full-body BBL treatment that targets pigmentation, sun damage, and uneven tone on areas such as the chest, arms, and legs. Designed for efficiency, it allows larger areas to be treated quickly with minimal downtime.

Laser Resurfacing (Contour TRL, MicroLaserPeel, NanoLaserPeel, ProFractional)

A range of resurfacing options that remove or treat layers of damaged skin with varying depth and intensity. From light refresh treatments to deeper correction of wrinkles, scars, and texture, each option is tailored to your skin and desired level of downtime.

It All Starts With a Conversation

At Plastic Surgery Group at City Centre, your consultation is a chance to have that conversation in a setting where guidance is clear, measured, and grounded in experience.

We’ll walk through your options, explain what each approach can and cannot do, and help you decide whether treatment now or later makes the most sense. Schedule a consultation with our team in Surrey and learn more about what’s right for you.
