Laser Skin ResurfacingLaser Skin Resurfacing is a quick and effective treatment that uses a special laser to address conditions on the top layer of your skin. This treatment removes the thin layer of damaged skin to help improve texture and provide a more youthful appearance. Most skin areas can be treated.

Popular treatment areas are:

  • Face
  • Neck
  • Chest
  • Hands

The depth of treatment will depend on the skin condition, your desired outcome and expectation for downtime. There will be a recuperation period of 3 to 4 days without any awkward bandaging or downtime for lighter peels. For more extensive treatments, complete healing will depend on the depth of treatment.

MicroLaserPeel (MLP) is an epidermal laser peel (4 to 50 microns) that precisely removes the outermost layers of the skin resulting in an improvement of fine lines and wrinkles, reduction of superficial brown spots and an overall improvement in the appearance of skin.

Contour TRL Resurfacing is a dermal laser peel (50 microns and beyond) that precisely removes layers of the skin resulting in an improvement of deeper lines and wrinkles, acne scars and an overall improvement in the appearance of skin.

The following conditions can be treated with Laser Skin Resurfacing:

  • Deep and superficial wrinkles
  • Scars
  • Keratosis and solar spots
  • Sun damage (e.g., freckles)
  • Pigment irregularities
  • Poor skin tone/texture
