Laser Skin Resurfacing

Using laser pulses to remove the outermost cells on the surface of your skin, our doctors can greatly decrease the appearance of lines and wrinkles on your face-- up to 75%! After the new surface area skin cells grow, they are softer, wrinkle free, and younger looking.

The lasers not only exfoliate your skin, they can also tighten the collagen fibers that are the key to skin's elasticity. The process does not affect the deeper layers of the skin and is a great way to fix abnormalities, such as acne scarring and pigmented lesions.

There are different lasers available that vary according to their wavelength and pulse duration. Each laser can deliver a different result by increasing the depth of skin cells that it affects. These differences can decrease/increase the likelihood of whether surrounding tissue will be affected.

Although laser resurfacing is fairly painless, it can cause post-procedure side effects. The most common side effects are redness, irritation, swelling, flaking, and itching. In about 1% of laser skin resurfacing patients, scarring or infections have occurred. During the healing process, patients need to stay out of the sun.

The best candidates for this procedure are patients with light skin pigmentation. Patients with darker pigmentation can experience side effects in the form hyperpigmentation or depigmentation of their skin tone.
