sKIN rESURFACING


Laser skin resurfacing can greatly improve fine wrinkles while significantly improving deeper, more dynamic wrinkles. We also use fractional laser peels to treat melasma and sun damage. This is achieved by the laser beam that gently vaporizes micron-thin layers of the epidermis, the most superficial layers of the skin. The laser can also thermally affect deeper skin layers to stimulate the production of new collagen in the dermis. The overall result is that your skin will not only look smoother and younger, it will feel tighter and more supple as well.

Unlike traditional treatments, such as dermabrasion and chemical peels, the unique characteristics of lasers mean that our technicians can precisely control the depth and the extent to which down time may occur. This means that we can tailor the treatment exactly to suit results and the recovery time you can afford.

Depending on the extent of the laser peel, most patients that have undergone the treatment will compare it to having an elastic band snapped across the skin during the treatment and the sensation of having a bad sunburn afterwards. Most patients will experience down time of redness and swelling over 36-48 hours with continued pinkness and flaking skin for 7-10 days. These timelines are subjective to the treatment settings and your skin type. Multiple treatments are often essential for best results. We offer deep and superficial fractionated laser resurfacing, as well as, fully ablative resurfacing.

We do require an initial consultation prior to booking laser resurfacing treatments.

 

Disclaimer: Results may vary from patient to patient. A complimentary consultation is required before treatments can be booked.
