Restore a More Youthful Appearance
Improve Skin Texture & Minimise Scarring
At Coastal Skin & Laser Noosa, we provide fractional laser skin resurfacing using advanced Icon™ laser technology, designed to rejuvenate tired, uneven or damaged skin. Our Noosa fractional laser clinic offers medical-grade treatments in a professional and calming setting, tailored to your skin concerns and goals.
This non-surgical procedure is ideal for reducing fine lines, softening acne and surgical scars, and refining overall skin texture, all with minimal downtime and long-term benefits.
Common Skin Concerns Treated
Fractional laser resurfacing is commonly used for:
- Post-acne scarring
- Textural irregularities
- Age-related skin changes
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Sunspots and pigmentation
- Large pores
Results develop progressively as your skin continues to regenerate in the weeks following treatment. Your treatment plan will be individualised based on your skin type, goals, and clinical assessment.
Am I a Candidate for Laser Skin Resurfacing?
Fractional laser skin resurfacing may be suitable for a wide range of skin types and concerns. This treatment works by stimulating collagen production in the deeper layers of the skin, helping to restore a smoother, more even skin surface over time.
It may be appropriate for individuals experiencing:
- Mild to moderate acne scars
- Surgical or traumatic scarring
- Fine lines and early wrinkles
- Sun-damaged skin, including rough texture and pigmentation
- Uneven skin tone or texture
- Large or visible pores
- Early signs of skin laxity
- Pigmentation irregularities, such as age spots or melasma (in suitable cases)
As with all medical treatments, individual suitability depends on your skin type, history, and specific concerns. Our clinicians will assess these factors during your consultation.

Important: As part of our safety protocol, all patients must have a full skin check with a qualified GP prior to any laser procedure. This can be completed through your regular doctor or arranged conveniently at our clinic via Tewantin Medical Centre.
How Fractional Laser Skin Resurfacing Works
The Icon™ fractional laser uses advanced light-based technology to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. These tiny thermal zones stimulate natural collagen and elastin production in the deeper layers, while leaving surrounding skin intact to support faster healing. By treating both the surface (epidermis) and deeper dermis, this method helps improve skin texture, reduce fine lines, and soften scars over time.
Patients typically experience a warm or prickling sensation during treatment. Following the procedure, it is normal to have temporary redness, mild swelling, and flaking, similar to a light sunburn. These effects usually settle within a few days, depending on individual skin type and the treatment intensity.
A full skin check with a GP is required prior to treatment to ensure your skin is suitable for laser resurfacing. This can be arranged through your usual doctor or at our clinic.
What to Expect During Treatment
Your skin will be thoroughly assessed and prepared before your treatment. Most individuals describe the sensation during the procedure as a light prickling or warmth. A topical numbing cream may be used to support your comfort.
After the treatment, mild redness, flaking, or a sunburn-like sensation may occur for several days. Our team will provide detailed aftercare instructions to support your recovery and minimise any potential side effects.
Most patients require a series of sessions to achieve optimal outcomes, depending on the treatment area and goals.
