What is laser resurfacing?

Your skin is constantly shedding off old cells to make way for younger and brighter skin cells. This process slows down significantly as you age, which is why you see so many uneven tone and texture features when you’re older than you had with younger skin.

Laser resurfacing reinvigorates your skin by removing the dead and tired skin cells using heat, which allows the new cells to rise to the surface for a clearer complexion. The procedure uses the Fraxel® laser system, which is nonablative. Nonablative lasers like Fraxel also stimulate collagen production below your skin’s surface to increase firmness over time.

Fraxel laser resurfacing creates microscopic columns using hair-thin beams of laser light. This allows the skin around those columns to heal with minimal side effects and recovery time. Most people benefit from four to six Fraxel laser resurfacing treatments.

What are the results of laser resurfacing?

Laser resurfacing offers improvements for the tone and texture of the skin you decide to target, including the skin on your face, neck, and hands. You can see spots and blemishes disappear as your skin peels and heals following the treatment.

You can trust laser resurfacing to minimize:

  • Brown spots
  • Wrinkles and fine lines
  • Acne scars
  • Crepey skin
  • Sun damage

Your specialist at Aesthetic Surgery and Dermatology of Cherry Creek customizes your treatment by adjusting the laser’s settings and determining the appropriate number of sessions based on your goals.

Am I a good candidate for laser resurfacing?

Many people benefit from laser resurfacing for more youthful skin. While some energy-based procedures come with side effects for people with darker skin tones, this isn’t the case with Fraxel. Its advanced technology works safely and effectively for any skin tone.

During your initial consultation at Aesthetic Surgery and Dermatology of Cherry Creek, your specialist reviews your medical history to ensure you don’t have any conditions the treatment can trigger, such as keloid scarring or an autoimmune disease flare-up. They inform you of any precautions you should take ahead of time.
