Laser Resurfacing

Laser Resurfacing

A treatment that gently renews the skin by using laser energy to resurface and smooth its surface.

Why Consider Laser Resurfacing?

Over time, skin can develop fine lines, uneven tone, scars, or sun-related damage. Creams and facials can help, but sometimes deeper renewal is needed. Laser resurfacing works by creating tiny, controlled micro-injuries in the skin to stimulate healing and collagen production, leading to smoother, fresher-looking skin.
It’s not about changing who you are, it’s about encouraging your skin to repair and restore itself naturally.

How Does Laser Resurfacing Work?

Two common methods are used:
  • Fractional Lasers: Treat only a fraction of the skin’s surface in a grid-like pattern, allowing quicker recovery.
  • CO₂ Lasers: Work at a deeper level for more significant resurfacing and collagen stimulation.
Both methods use precise energy to remove old or damaged skin cells while activating the body’s repair response.

What Happens During a Session?

  • Before: Your skin will be cleansed, and a numbing cream may be applied to keep you comfortable.
  • During: The laser device is passed over the treatment area, creating controlled micro-injuries. Sessions usually take 30–90 minutes, depending on the size of the area.
  • After: Redness, swelling, and a sunburn-like sensation are common for a few days. Your skin will gradually peel as it heals, revealing smoother layers beneath.

What Kind of Results Can You Expect?

  • Reduction in fine lines, acne scars, or pigmentation irregularities
  • Fresher, more even skin texture over time
  • Results that build gradually as collagen regenerates
  • Longer-lasting improvement compared to surface-only treatments

Any Side Effects to Know About?

Laser resurfacing is more intensive than many other treatments, so recovery takes longer. Possible effects include:
  • Redness, swelling, or peeling that can last days to weeks, depending on the laser type
  • Temporary darkening or lightening of the skin
  • Rare risks like infection or scarring, which your doctor will explain in detail
This treatment may not be suitable for darker skin types, those with certain medical conditions, or during pregnancy. Sun protection and aftercare are essential.

Quick FAQs

Does it hurt?
You may feel warmth or a prickling sensation. A numbing cream is usually applied to make the procedure more comfortable.

How long is the downtime?
Recovery can take a few days for fractional lasers and up to 1–2 weeks for CO₂ lasers, depending on depth.

When will I see results?
Skin often looks fresher once peeling settles, with continued improvement over several months as collagen rebuilds.

How many sessions will I need?
Some women notice results after just one session, but multiple treatments may be recommended for deeper scars or lines.

Is it safe for all skin tones?
Not always. Darker skin types may have a higher risk of pigmentation changes. A consultation helps determine if this treatment is right for you.
