What Is Laser Resurfacing?
Laser resurfacing is a non-surgical face treatment designed to improve skin tone, texture, and clarity. It uses concentrated light energy to gently remove damaged outer skin while encouraging fresh collagen growth underneath. The result is smoother, firmer, and more evenly toned skin as healing takes place. This treatment is commonly used to reduce:
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Sun damage and pigmentation
- Acne scars and other skin irregularities
- Enlarged pores and dullness
The procedure can be tailored to suit a range of skin types and concerns, with options that vary in intensity and downtime.
Combining Laser Resurfacing with Other Treatments
Laser resurfacing is most effective when used as part of a comprehensive facial rejuvenation strategy. Each layer of the face, from skin to fat, muscle, and bone, shows signs of aging in different ways and may benefit from a specific approach. By combining treatments, patients can address all aspects of aging for a more balanced and youthful outcome.
Here are some ways laser resurfacing fits into a multi-treatment plan:
- After a facelift, laser resurfacing refines the skin’s surface to match the lifted structure beneath
- Used with dermal fillers, it smooths the skin while restoring lost facial volume
- When paired with Botox, it softens both static and dynamic wrinkles
- It can follow microneedling or chemical peels to boost collagen production further
Together, these treatments complement each other’s results, creating a more natural appearance than any single procedure could achieve alone.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Laser Resurfacing?
Laser resurfacing is ideal for individuals with concerns like fine lines, sun damage, uneven tone, or acne scars. It works best on medium and fair skin tones and those in generally good health. Candidates should not have active acne or certain skin conditions and must be free from recent sun exposure or tanning.
A professional consultation can determine the safest and most effective approach based on your skin type and goals.
