Your skin goes through a lot every day. Sun exposure, aging, and environmental stressors can leave it looking tired and uneven. If you want to smooth out fine lines, reduce scars, and achieve a refreshed glow, laser skin resurfacing in Troy and Clinton Township can help.
This laser skin resurfacing facial treatment uses targeted laser energy to rejuvenate your skin, giving it a healthier, more youthful appearance.
What Is Laser Skin Resurfacing?
Laser skin resurfacing treatments work by removing damaged skin layers to reveal healthier, smoother skin underneath. The process stimulates collagen production and encourages new cell growth, leading to a more even skin tone and improved texture.
There are two primary laser skin resurfacing procedures:
- Fractional CO2 Lasers – Effective for deep wrinkles, scars, and major texture concerns.
- Erbium Lasers – A milder option, ideal for treating moderate wrinkles and pigmentation with less downtime.
Our specialists will assess your skin and recommend the best laser type to match your specific needs, ensuring optimal results.
Is Laser Skin Resurfacing Right for You?
If you want to rejuvenate your skin without surgery, laser skin resurfacing could be the right fit. This treatment helps with:
- Wrinkles and fine lines
- Acne scars and surgical scars
- Sun damage and uneven pigmentation
- Enlarged pores and rough texture
- Age spots and discoloration
If you have sensitive skin or certain medical conditions, we’ll assess whether this treatment is the best choice for you.
What to Expect During a Laser Skin Resurfacing Procedure
We make sure you’re comfortable throughout your laser skin resurfacing procedure. Here’s what happens:
- Personalized Consultation – We evaluate your skin and discuss your goals.
- Skin Prep and Numbing – Your skin is cleansed, and we apply numbing cream or local anesthesia to minimize discomfort.
- Precision Laser Application – The laser carefully removes damaged skin while stimulating collagen renewal.
- Cooling and Recovery – A soothing serum or cooling mask is applied to help calm your skin.
Sessions typically last 45 minutes to two hours, depending on the treatment area.
Recovery and Aftercare: What to Expect
After treatment, mild redness and swelling are common, similar to a sunburn. Here’s what to expect during recovery:
- Days 1-3: Your skin may feel warm and slightly swollen. Keeping it moisturized and avoiding the sun is essential.
- Days 4-7: The treated area starts to shed, revealing fresher, more even skin underneath.
- Weeks 2-6: Collagen production continues, leading to smoother skin and improved texture.
