What Is LASER RESURFACING® ?
Laser Resurfacing® is a procedure that removes damaged skin layers using advanced laser technology, promoting the growth of smoother, healthier skin. It effectively treats fine lines, wrinkles, pigmentation and acne scar while stimulating collagen production for improved skin texture and resilience:
-
fine lines
-
wrinkles (especially around the mouth and under the eyes)
-
pigmentation
-
acne scars
-
uneven skin texture
How It Works
Laser Resurfacing® is a scientifically advanced cosmetic procedure that uses precise laser energy to remove damaged skin layers and stimulate the body’s natural healing and regenerative processes. The laser targets the epidermis (outer skin layer) and/or penetrates deeper into the dermis, depending on the treatment type, creating controlled thermal damage that promotes skin cell turnover and collagen production. By removing damaged tissue, the body generates fresh skin cells while activating fibroblasts to produce collagen and elastin, which improve skin firmness, elasticity, and resilience.
Techniques like NanoLaserPeel and MicroLaserPeel focus on superficial layers for texture and tone, while Contour TRL penetrates deeper to address more severe wrinkles and scars. This customizable approach ensures precise targeting of your skin concerns, resulting in smoother, rejuvenated skin with improved structure and elasticity over time.
LASER RESURFACING®-Tailored Treatments
Treatments of Laser Resurfacing® are customized by selecting the laser’s depth, intensity, and technique to address each individual’s specific skin concerns and goals. Options include the NanoLaserPeel for gentle, superficial exfoliation with minimal downtime, the MicroLaserPeel for targeting fine lines, pigmentation, and uneven tone by removing a slightly deeper layer of skin, and the Contour TRL (Tunable Resurfacing Laser) for deep resurfacing to treat severe wrinkles and scars while stimulating collagen production. These customizable approaches ensure precise and effective results based on the your skin condition and desired outcome.

LASER RESURFACING Results: Before & After
Before Laser Resurfacing®, the skin may exhibit fine lines, wrinkles, uneven texture, discoloration, or acne scars, often appearing dull or lacking firmness due to reduced collagen production. After treatment, patients typically experience smoother, brighter, and more even-toned skin. In the short term (1-2 weeks), the skin heals from initial redness or swelling, revealing improved texture and tone. Over the long term (4-12 weeks), as collagen remodeling occurs, fine lines, wrinkles, and scars diminish, resulting in firmer, more youthful-looking skin with enhanced elasticity. The extent of these improvements depends on the depth and type of laser treatment performed.
Tailored Beauty Solutions
Is LASER RESURFACING® Suitable for All Skin Types?
Laser Resurfacing® is not universally suitable for all skin types and requires careful consideration of individual factors such as skin tone, texture, and sensitivity. Lighter skin types respond well to laser resurfacing with a lower risk of pigmentation changes. Darker skin tones are more prone to hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation and require specialized laser technologies or settings to minimize these risks. During the consultation I will determine the safest and most effective treatment plan for your skin type and condition.
What is the Downtime for LASER RESURFACING® Treatments?
The downtime for Laser Resurfacing® treatments varies depending on the depth and intensity of the procedure:
-
NanoLaserPeel: Minimal downtime, typically 1-3 days, with slight redness and mild peeling as the skin heals.
-
MicroLaserPeel: Moderate downtime of 3-7 days, during which redness, swelling, and peeling may occur as the skin regenerates.
-
Contour TRL (Deep Resurfacing): Significant downtime of 7-14 days, with noticeable redness, swelling, and scabbing as the deeper layers of skin heal.
Recovery time also depends on individual factors such as skin type, the area treated, and adherence to post-procedure care.
How Soon Will I See Results from a LASER RESURFACING® Treatment?
Results from Laser Resurfacing® appear in stages, starting with smoother, more radiant skin within a few days to a week as redness subsides. Over 1-3 weeks, new skin cells regenerate, improving texture, tone, and fine lines, while deeper changes like reduced wrinkles and scars become more noticeable over 4-12 weeks as collagen remodeling continues. Whether you’re seeking quick refreshment or dramatic improvement, laser resurfacing delivers visible, lasting results tailored to your needs.
Q & A
How Many LASER RESURFACING® Treatments Will I Need?
The number of Laser Resurfacing® treatments you’ll need depends on your unique skin concerns and goals. For mild issues like uneven texture, 1-2 superficial treatments, such as a NanoLaserPeel, may be sufficient, with maintenance every 6-12 months. For moderate concerns like fine lines and pigmentation, 1-3 MicroLaserPeel sessions spaced weeks apart typically deliver great results. For deeper wrinkles or scars, a single deep resurfacing treatment like Contour TRL often achieves significant improvement, with occasional touch-ups as needed. Together we will customize a treatment plan to ensure the best results for your skin.
Is a LASER RESURFACING® Treatment Painful?
Laser Resurfacing® treatments are designed with your comfort in mind, and the level of sensation varies based on the depth of the procedure. Superficial treatments, like the NanoLaserPeel, typically cause minimal discomfort, often a mild warming or stinging, easily managed with numbing cream. Moderate treatments, such as the MicroLaserPeel, may result in a tingling or burning sensation, but anesthetics and cooling measures keep you comfortable throughout. For deeper treatments like Contour TRL, more significant discomfort may occur, but local anesthesia or sedation ensures a pain-free experience. Post-treatment, sensations similar to a mild sunburn are common and subside as your skin heals, leaving you with rejuvenated, radiant results.
What Should I Expect After the LASER RESURFACING® Treatment?
You can expect redness, swelling, and a sunburn-like sensation initially, followed by peeling or scabbing as the skin heals. Within 1-2 weeks, redness fades, revealing smoother, brighter skin, while deeper treatments take longer to show full results. Over 4-12 weeks, collagen remodeling significantly improves firmness, texture, and scars. Proper post-care, including moisturization and strict sun protection, is essential to optimize results and prevent complications, ensuring radiant, rejuvenated skin tailored to your needs.
