FAQ

What is Laser Skin Resurfacing?

Laser skin resurfacing is a laser treatment that improves the skin’s surface by removing damaged skin and encouraging new collagen growth.

The laser resurfacing procedure can help with uneven skin tone, fine lines, brown spots, skin discoloration, and many other skin texture irregularities. It is usually completed in less than an hour, depending on the size of the area being treated.

This treatment is commonly used to reduce wrinkles and repair smoker’s lines, giving you a more youthful appearance.

The difference between fractional laser resurfacing and laser skin resurfacing is that laser skin resurfacing treats the entire surface of the skin in the targeted area, removing damaged skin layers. Fractional resurfacing treats only a fraction of the skin at a time, creating tiny, controlled micro-injuries.

Laser skin resurfacing can use either ablative (removing layers of skin) or non-ablative lasers (heating the skin without removing layers). Fractional laser treatments are less invasive and focus on both the skin’s surface and deeper layers. It typically requires less recovery time than full laser resurfacing.

A CO2 laser is used to treat a variety of skin conditions by removing damaged skin and promoting new skin growth.

This carbon dioxide laser works by vaporizing the outer layers of skin while simultaneously heating deeper layers, which stimulates collagen production. This process helps improve uneven texture, fine lines, and scars.

The intense heat generated by the laser also tightens the skin, making it smoother and more youthful. The treated areas will gradually heal, revealing clearer, healthier skin.

The cost of skin resurfacing can vary depending on factors like the type of laser treatment, the size of the treatment area, the location of the clinic, and the experience of the dermatologist.

Dr. Lana will take the time to discuss all the details with you, ensuring you know exactly what to expect from your treatment. She’s here to guide you every step of the way.

Yes, your skin will likely be sensitive after the treatment. The level of sensitivity depends on your skin type and whether the treatment was done on your entire face or just a specific area.

Most patients report some redness, swelling, and a feeling similar to a mild sunburn. However, these side effects are temporary and typically subside within a few days. You might also experience minimal discomfort, but this is easily managed with over-the-counter pain relievers.

Since this is an outpatient procedure, you’ll be able to go home the same day and start the healing process.

Yes, laser skin resurfacing can help with acne scars. Laser treatments target the damaged layers of your skin, promoting collagen production. This helps reduce acne scarring and improves your overall skin quality.

The procedure is effective for various skin types – from very light to very dark skin. We will create a personalized treatment plan just for you. Over time, this process will help smooth out the scars, giving you beautiful skin and an even texture.

No, laser skin resurfacing is not the best option for significantly sagging skin or very deep wrinkles.

While the laser treatment can improve the appearance of fine lines and surface-level wrinkles, it may not provide the desired results for more severe skin laxity, deep creases, or stretch marks. For these concerns, dermal fillers are more effective.

Unlike laser treatments, which work on the surface of the skin, fillers are injected beneath the skin, providing an immediate lift and smoothing out deep creases. Skin tightening procedures like Sofwave are ideal for treating sagging skin.

Yes, laser resurfacing can effectively treat sun damage and age spots. The resurfacing treatment works by targeting sun-damaged skin and removing the outer layer to reveal healthier, clearer skin underneath.

It can help reduce the appearance of sun freckles, dark spots, and other pigmentation issues caused by sun exposure. The treatment stimulates new skin growth, which helps gradually fade these imperfections over time.

Most patients see noticeable improvement after just one session, but multiple treatments may be needed for larger or more stubborn spots.
