Procedure Technique
Ablation vs. Non-Ablation
Laser skin resurfacing may be aggressive, depending on the patient’s aesthetic goals. The more aggressive the treatment (which is referred to as an ablative procedure) the more it wears away the epidermis to let new skin regeneration begin. Recovery with this technique may take up to 3 weeks. The lighter treatment, or non-ablative laser, does not remove any skin. It stimulates deeper layers of the skin to initiate an increased growth of collagen. With this treatment, there will be no downtime for the patient. Both techniques help the skin regenerate. As new layers of skin are developed, skin problems such as wrinkles, mild scars and discoloration are minimized.

Am I a Candidate for Laser Skin Resurfacing?
There are several factors to take into consideration when choosing which kind of laser skin resurfacing procedure is right for your needs. Laser skin resurfacing is geared toward patients who are unhappy with their general complexion. If you see sun damage, acne scars, age spots, fine lines and wrinkles, pigmentation, or redness concerns, this treatment can help correct these cosmetic flaws. Also, it works wonders for patients who have scaly patches, rough texture, or other irregularities. Laser skin resurfacing is not suggested for anyone who has very dark skin or active acne outbreaks. In addition, it’s important to be aware that there is downtime associated with these laser treatments. Certain patients, based on the condition of their skin, may require up to 2 – 3 weeks to recover.
