What is Laser Resurfacing?
Laser resurfacing (also known as a laser peel) is a non-invasive cosmetic laser treatment that removes flaws from the outer layer of the skin. This cannot be achieved with plastic surgery, and surgeons often recommend laser resurfacing after facelifts to refine the results and further treat wrinkles and moderately deep lines. Laser skin resurfacing for acne scars is also capable of camouflaging the damage caused by chronic acne. Active acne cases will need to postpone treatment until the surrounding skin has cleared. Laser resurfacing work requires multiple sessions for fully treated skin.

What Are the Differences Between Laser Skin Resurfacing vs. Chemical Peel?
CO2 laser skin resurfacing and chemical peels remove damaged skin to rejuvenate the patient’s appearance. Laser skin resurfacing can be used over the entire face or to treat minor facial flaws, whereas chemical peels are only used over the entire face– chemical peels and ablative laser resurfacing show significant results, but very dark skin tones may not be suited to fractional laser resurfacing.
Before and After Pictures
How is Ablative Laser Resurfacing Performed?
We offer ablative laser treatment with the Moxi®, CoolPeel®, HALO®, Sciton ProFractional®, and Contour TRL® systems. Each system provides specific benefits to our patients. The laser energy is applied to your skin in short bursts. We apply the energy in small amounts over the entire treatment area. You may feel a slight sting on your skin each time the laser is applied. We also offer an exosome add-on to improve results even more.
What is Recovery Like After Laser Resurfacing?
The results that you see in our laser skin resurfacing before and after pictures is after the skin is fully healed. This can take up to 10 days. You may have tenderness and swelling during this time. Larger treatment areas require more healing, which can take up to three weeks. The skin will be very red and flaky.
How Long Will Laser Treatment Results Last?
The skin continues the natural aging process after resurfacing. How long the results last is specific to each patient. We recommend follow-up appointments so we can evaluate your aging process and determine when additional laser resurfacing is needed or if you need other anti-aging treatments.
