Laser Skin Resurfacing

Resurfacing the exterior layer of the facial skin with a laser is an advanced form of dermabrasion. While this procedure most commonly is used to minimize the appearance of wrinkles around the mouth, eyes, and forehead, it also is effective in treating sun damage, acne scars, and uneven pigmentation. Laser resurfacing can be done in conjunction with a facelift or eyelid surgery.

During the procedure, the laser safely removes damaged skin layer by layer. The laser penetrates to a precise, controlled depth, reducing the risk of scarring or pigmentation problems. During the healing process, new cells form, producing a smoother, younger-looking skin surface.
