The Benefits of Laser Resurfacing

Your skin helps you look great, and when your skin is dull, it affects your appearance. Many factors can affect your skin. Aging, sun damage, environmental toxins, diet, and lifestyle habits can all cause your skin to appear lifeless, dull, and uneven. Laser resurfacing is all about removing the dead skin cells and other substances, revealing revitalized, beautiful skin.

How Laser Resurfacing Can Help You

Laser resurfacing offers many important benefits. Consider that laser resurfacing can reduce the appearance of:

• Lines and wrinkles
• Acne and acne scarring
• Uneven skin tone and texture
• Sun damage and age spots
• Hyperpigmentation
• Actinic Keratosis
• Skin abnormalities

After laser resurfacing treatment, you can expect:

• Younger, more vibrant-looking skin
• Smoother, unlined skin
• A more even skin tone
• Diminished fine lines and wrinkles
• Faded, less noticeable acne scarring
• Diminished appearance of sun damage

Laser resurfacing uses light and heat to penetrate the deeper layers of your skin, promoting natural, effective skin enhancement. Laser resurfacing treatment will:

• Increase collagen production, to promote younger-looking skin
• Remove dead skin cells and revitalize your skin
• Tap into your body’s natural healing properties to create new, more youthful skin

During your laser resurfacing treatment, your dermatology provider will use either a pulsed-dye laser or intense pulsed light therapy. Each of these lasers has a low risk of side effects and requires minimal to no downtime so you can get back to your day.

Your laser resurfacing treatment will take between 15 and 45 minutes depending on the size of the area treated and your skin characteristics.1 to 5 treatments are recommended to attain optimal results. Results are cumulative, so each subsequent laser resurfacing treatment will further enhance the beauty of your skin.

After your laser resurfacing treatment, it’s important to protect your skin from exposure to sun, cold, wind, and other irritants. Wear a sunscreen of at least SPF 50 after your laser resurfacing treatment.
