Laser Skin Resurfacing

Skin resurfacing removes the top layer of weathered, aging skin, and tightens the deeper layers, revealing a smoother and more youthful complexion.

Procedure:

Laser skin resurfacing, sometimes called a "laser peel," uses a carbon dioxide or erbium laser to remover areas of damaged or wrinkled skin, layer by layer. The skin will need several weeks to heal completely and a pink color will be present for a few weeks to months afterwards. While the skin remains in this "pink" phase it will be producing collagen which helps to tighten and restore the skin.

Result:

Wrinkles are smoothed, discoloration and blotches are removed or improved, and newer, fresher skin is revealed.

FAQs:

How is laser skin resurfacing different from chemical peels or dermabrasion? There are some similarities, but in general the laser technique can smooth out surface irregularities better than a chemical peel and tightens the skin better than dermabrasion.
