Laser Skin Resurfacing in Boca Raton, FL

What is Laser Skin Resurfacing?

A Laser skin resurfacing treatment uses light to penetrate the skin and heat the collagen layer below the surface. As existing tissue coagulates, the body kicks into action, removing the old components and creating new proteins that support the skin and reduce the appearance and depth of lines and wrinkles. This technique can also be performed with ablative lasers, which can renew the surface layers of the skin, eliminating blemishes, spots, and other flaws. Laser resurfacing is a key component of the Resurfacing category of our exclusive TR3+ approach.

What Laser Skin Resurfacing Options Are There?

We do Deka Tetra Fractional CO2 resurfacing and CoolPeel for less downtime. Fractional Pico laser treatments are our semi-ablative and non-ablative skin resurfacing laser options Non-ablative laser skin resurfacing treats the layers of skin beneath the surface, delivering controlled laser energy to stimulate collagen production and improve the health of underlying skin tissue. This is the ideal treatment option for patients who would like to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Ablative laser skin resurfacing treatments remove the exposed, damaged layers of skin, also stimulating collagen production for healthy skin to grow in its place. This is the ideal treatment for patients who would like to eliminate discoloration and other skin imperfections that are visible on the surface.

Can Laser Skin Resurfacing Be Used for Stretch Mark Removal?

Stretch marks are a form of discoloration in the skin, making it a suitable condition for ablative laser skin resurfacing treatments. By targeting the affected areas with laser energy, we can eliminate the discoloration while stimulating collagen production to encourage the growth of healthy skin behind it. Laser skin resurfacing is a recommended treatment for patients who would like to eliminate the appearance of scars. For this process, we would use an ablative laser resurfacing treatment. With this technique, we can remove the discolored scar tissue so that healthy skin can grow in its place.

Can Laser Skin Resurfacing Be Used to Improve Skin Tone?

For patients with an uneven skin tone, we would recommend ablative laser skin resurfacing. With this treatment, we would treat the affected areas of the skin. This process triggers collagen production in the skin, allowing vibrant, healthy skin to grow in its place, improving overall skin tone.

Which Laser Skin Resurfacing Treatment is Right for Me?

The best laser resurfacing treatment for you depends on your skin treatment goals. Each laser process involves collagen regeneration, which adds volume and smoothness below the surface layer of the skin. This can help reduce lines and wrinkles, but will not affect the appearance of the outer layer of skin. For patients who are only concerned about wrinkles and folds, we may recommend Fractional Pico laser treatments as our semi-ablative and non-ablative skin resurfacing laser options.

What Can I Expect After My Laser Skin Resurfacing Treatment?

After laser skin resurfacing, there is a short recovery time typically lasting a few days. During this time, there may be some irritation, redness, and swelling, particularly from ablative resurfacing. The skin will be sensitive after treatment, so it is important to limit sun exposure to prevent damaging the freshly treated skin. After non-ablative resurfacing, the patient can return immediately to their daily tasks. With both techniques, new collagen will form over the weeks following treatment. As this process continues, patients will notice a gradual improvement in their results as their skin is continuously restored.
