Laser skin resurfacing is a non-invasive treatment that rejuvenates the skin and reduces the signs of aging, sun damage, wrinkles, and other skin imperfections. Laser therapy can even be used to tighten the skin, reducing sagginess or excessive skin laxity. In short, laser skin resurfacing therapies can help you receive the clear, youthful skin you have always wanted.
At CAMI Medical Spa, we are pleased to provide the best laser skin resurfacing treatments available today. We ensure that each patient can find a laser therapy that aligns with their needs and goals. To identify the treatment for your skin condition, we invite you to schedule a consultation with our laser skin resurfacing experts in Huntersville and Greensboro, NC.
Laser skin resurfacing is a non-invasive procedure approved by the FDA to treat a wide range of skin imperfections, including skin laxity. It is important to remember that there are different kinds of laser skin resurfacing, with each laser addressing different aesthetic issues.
Some lasers carefully peel away the damaged outer layers of the skin, revealing healthier, more youthful-looking skin beneath. Laser therapies can also stimulate the production of collagen, a naturally occurring substance that helps keep skin healthy and radiant.
Here at CAMI, we use the Sciton laser, which works by removing the top layers of skin, revealing healthier layers. We consider this to be one of the best laser treatments overall, particularly for patients who are hoping to correct the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, blotches, or acne scars. Additionally, because the new layers of skin that form tend to be tighter than the old layers of skin, Sciton can be an effective tool to correct sagginess.
There are a number of reasons why patients love laser skin therapies. A few of the benefits include:
Very little downtime is required: Most patients have very few side effects and feel ready to resume their normal activities right after treatment.
The best candidates for laser skin resurfacing are individuals looking to address a range of skin concerns, such as fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, uneven skin tone, and sun damage. If you’re in good overall health, have a lighter skin tone (since darker skin tones may require special consideration), and have realistic expectations about the procedure, you’re likely a good candidate. Laser skin resurfacing is also ideal for those seeking to rejuvenate their complexion without undergoing invasive surgery. However, those with active acne or certain skin conditions may need to wait until their skin is clear before undergoing treatment.
Let’s Get Started
To help them prepare, patients may be given a topical ointment or serum to apply in the days before the treatment. They may also be asked to avoid any medications or supplements that thin the blood to prevent bruising or swelling. Patients are also advised to discontinue Retinoids for a short period before their treatment. Any other guidelines will be provided during the initial consultation.
Depending on the area being treated, we may use a topical numbing medication to prevent any pain or discomfort. The treatment will usually take somewhere between 30 and 45 minutes, and most patients find it easy to rest and relax while their treatment takes place.
In the first few days following laser skin resurfacing, patients may have an appearance similar to a mild or moderate sunburn. Minimal swelling may also be present in the first couple of days. As the healing process continues, there may be some slight flaking or peeling of the skin; however, certain moisturizers are helpful at keeping that to a minimum.
With laser skin resurfacing, it is important to avoid the sun for a few weeks following the treatments to enable the skin to heal and prevent any discoloration of the new skin. The skin is very sensitive to sunlight, so applying sunscreen is imperative any time you go outside.
Results are usually evident almost immediately but become clearer and more significant as a few days pass.
Some patients may need to join us for multiple laser therapy sessions to obtain the desired outcomes. It all depends on the severity of the issues being treated.
