Laser skin resurfacing for texture/restoration

Our skin resurfacing procedure uses the MicroLaserPeel to gently remove a thin layer of sun- or age-damaged skin to improve skin texture, creating a more youthful appearance. The Sciton laser allows for great precision of depth, providing superior results to chemical peels or microdermabrasion.

Removing the outer layer of the skin eliminates the damaged cells that cause skin to look dull, tired, and aged. The result is healthier, younger-looking skin, often with a more even tone and a reduction in fine lines and wrinkles.

Additionally, the Pro Fractional Erbium Yag laser is used to treat thousands of pinpoint areas in your skin. Because only a fraction of your skin is directly treated by the laser, the surrounding untreated tissue promotes rapid healing. New collagen is produced, which adds firmness and resilience to the skin. Down time is short, usually 1 to 3 days, depending on the depth of treatment necessary. Most people treated on a Thursday or Friday can return to their normal activities the next Monday.

Skin resurfacing is effective in treating skin conditions such as wrinkles, scars, sun damage, and irregular pigment. Popular treatment areas include the face and the neck, although some patients also choose to treat the hands and chest area. During your consultation, we will discuss the best approach to meet your individual skin care concerns.
