Laser Skin Resurfacing

Deep facial wrinkles often come with age, and are likewise exacerbated by the damaging elements we're exposed to every day like smoke and UV rays. Laser skin resurfacing is an option many choose to comprehensively fight these premature signs of aging by helping the skin appear younger, smoother, and more vibrant.

How Laser Skin Resurfacing Works

A carbon dioxide (CO2) or Erbium:YAG laser strips away the dead outer layer of skin and spurs the regeneration of new, young skin in its place. It simultaneously excites the collage fibers in the skin's deep wrinkles, strengthening and reorganizing them in the deep tissue. This procedure is effective in treating sun spots, age spots, acne scars, irregular pigmentation, and facial wrinkles ranging between fine, moderate, and deep.

Recovery

Following the procedure, the skin will appear red and swollen, and makeup should be avoided for one to two weeks at your physicians instructions. During this time, our doctors continue to work with you, designing a treatment regimen to optimize your comfort and ensure your satisfaction with the final results.
