MultiFrax in Penang | CANVAS Medical Clinic

Two fractional laser wavelengths in one pass — physician-led MultiFrax at our Gurney Walk clinic in George Town. It pairs a deep collagen-remodelling wavelength with a surface-renewing one to smooth texture, soften acne scars and even out pigment and sun damage, with a short, manageable recovery.

What is MultiFrax?

MultiFrax is a dual-wavelength fractional laser that combines 1550 nm and 1927 nm in a single handpiece. Its scanning technology can fire the two wavelengths individually or simultaneously, so texture, pigmentation, scarring and sun damage can be addressed together in one pass. The 1550 nm wavelength works deeper in the dermis to stimulate new collagen and elastin, while the 1927 nm resurfaces the epidermis to refresh pigment and surface texture.

At CANVAS Medical Clinic in George Town, Penang, MultiFrax is selected and supervised by our physicians. As a non-ablative fractional laser it renews the skin through microscopic treatment zones rather than removing the whole surface — meaningful resurfacing with a recovery most people manage in a few days.

1550 nm + 1927 nm Fractional resurfacing Acne scars & texture Pigment & sun damage Collagen remodelling ~3–5 days recovery

How it works

  1. Consultation & skin assessment. A CANVAS physician examines your skin, reviews your history and confirms MultiFrax suits your concern and skin tone.
  2. Wavelength & settings selection. Your physician chooses 1550 nm, 1927 nm or both, and the depth and density, to target texture, scarring, pigment or a combination.
  3. Treatment. After numbing cream, the handpiece scans the area with fractional pulses — a warm sensation with a light snap. A full face is usually completed in well under an hour.
  4. Aftercare & series. Expect some redness or light flaking for a few days. We guide sun protection and recovery, and plan a series for gradual, natural resurfacing.

Benefits

Two wavelengths, one pass

Surface and deeper concerns are treated together for efficient results.

Smoother texture

Fractional resurfacing softens the look of acne scars, pores and fine lines.

More even tone

The 1927 nm wavelength refreshes pigment and sun damage for a brighter complexion.

Collagen remodelling

The 1550 nm wavelength stimulates new collagen and elastin in the dermis.

Manageable downtime

Non-ablative renewal with recovery that usually settles in about 3–5 days.

Physician-tailored

Settings matched to your skin and goals — not an off-the-shelf pass.

Who it's for

MultiFrax suits a range of skin-quality concerns, but suitability is always confirmed at consultation. You may be a good candidate if you want to:

  • Soften the look of acne scars and uneven texture
  • Refine enlarged pores and fine lines
  • Even out pigmentation and sun damage
  • Improve overall skin quality and radiance
  • Remodel collagen for firmer-looking skin
  • Resurface with a short, manageable recovery

MultiFrax is not suitable during pregnancy, over active infection or breakouts in the area, or with certain photosensitising medications and conditions. Deeper scarring may need a combined plan. Your physician will confirm suitability and expectations at consultation.

MultiFrax vs other lasers

MultiFrax is a fractional resurfacing laser that remodels texture, scars, pigment and sun damage across two wavelengths in one pass. PicoSure Pro is a picosecond laser that shatters pigment with a photoacoustic effect and has less downtime — ideal for pigmentation and tattoos. Dermablate is an ablative resurfacing laser for deeper texture goals with more recovery.

Fractional resurfacing for texture, scars and quality: MultiFrax. Pigment and tone with minimal downtime: PicoSure Pro. Deeper ablative resurfacing: Dermablate. Many plans combine them, and your CANVAS physician will sequence what your skin needs.

FAQ

MultiFrax in Penang, answered.

MultiFrax is a dual-wavelength fractional laser that combines 1550 nm and 1927 nm in one handpiece. The 1550 nm wavelength works in the dermis to stimulate new collagen and elastin, while the 1927 nm resurfaces the epidermis for pigment and texture — fired individually or together to treat texture, scarring, pigmentation and sun damage in a single session.
MultiFrax addresses skin texture, acne scars, enlarged pores, fine lines, uneven pigmentation and sun damage. Because it pairs a deeper collagen-remodelling wavelength with a surface-renewing one, it can improve both the quality and tone of the skin in the same treatment.
MultiFrax is a non-ablative fractional laser, so it renews the skin without fully removing the surface. Most patients have some redness, mild swelling or light flaking that typically settles within about 3 to 5 days. Your physician will advise based on your treatment intensity.
Most patients describe MultiFrax as a warm sensation with a light rubber-band snap. Numbing cream is applied beforehand for comfort, and a full-face treatment is usually completed in well under an hour.
MultiFrax is a fractional resurfacing laser that remodels texture, scars and tone across two wavelengths, while a picosecond laser such as PicoSure Pro shatters pigment with a photoacoustic effect and has less downtime. They are complementary; your physician will recommend the right one — or a combination — for your skin.
