What is laser resurfacing?

Laser resurfacing is a safe, effective way to treat skin imperfections and blemishes. It triggers natural healing, increasing the skin’s elasticity and plumpness.

Laser technology sends precisely measured light energy pulses into the skin. The light causes tiny amounts of damage that the naked eye can’t see. The surrounding untreated skin responds by activating a healing response that regenerates the skin.

The team also offers IPL facials, to target skin pigmentaion and redness, minimizing hyperpigmentation and helping create a more even skintone.  

In combination, these effects dramatically rejuvenate the skin’s appearance, making you look and feel younger.

Which problems can laser resurfacing treat?

Laser resurfacing improves the appearance of:

• Fine lines
• Wrinkles
• Skin lesions
• Surgical scars
• Acne scars
• Stretch marks

The Beauty Crew Institute of Medical Aesthetics creates personalized treatments that focus on each patient’s problem areas.

What is an IPL Photofacial?

An IPL (intense pulsed light) photofacial can help even out skintone by targeting discoloration and redness.  It can undo some of the visible damage caused by sun exposure. IPL treatments are commonly done on face, neck, chest and even hands. 

What is involved in a laser resurfacing procedure?

Your laser resurfacing session is a straightforward process. Once you’re comfortable and have your eye shields in place, the doctor guides the handpiece over your skin, delivering the laser energy as they go until they’ve covered the entire treatment area.

Laser resurfacing shouldn’t cause pain. But you could feel some discomfort with the laser at specific settings. After your session, you might notice slight swelling, and your skin might redden, but these effects soon wear off.

Does laser resurfacing work right away?

You won’t see the full effects of laser resurfacing right after your treatment because the skin needs to heal, and collagen production takes time. You should notice a difference in your skin after a couple of weeks, with improvements continuing for up to three months.

The highly skilled Beauty Crew Institute of Medical Aesthetics team takes the time to discover what patients hope to achieve from their treatments and help them reach their goals.
