Overview

Renew & Revitalize. Achieve Smoother, Youthful Skin.

During treatment, laser energy targets the skin’s surface and deeper layers to renew collagen and elastin.

  • Ablative: removes outer skin layers for dramatic results (targets deeper wrinkles, scars)

Laser Skin Resurfacing FAQs

Which type is right for me?

Ablative offers more dramatic change with more downtime. Non-ablative is gentler but may require more sessions.

Is it painful?

Local numbing creams or agents are used; patients may feel warmth or pressure. A cool-down regimen reduces discomfort post-treatment.

When do results peak?

3–6 months after treatment, results typically plateau as collagen continues to remodel.
