Laser Skin Resurfacing Q&A
How painful is skin resurfacing?
Laser skin treatments do work very quickly. The pain is minimal and has been compared by patients to 'a rubber band snapping against your skin. ' After a few minutes, your skin becomes used to the discomfort and you don't feel it anymore.
How long do the results from skin resurfacing last?
Most patients get to enjoy silky-smooth skin that lasts for anywhere between three and five years after undergoing laser therapy.
How often should you get skin resurfacing?
Traditionally, annual treatments are enough to eliminate further scarring, and to maintain your skin's healthy appearance.
How do you prepare for skin resurfacing?
Don't exfoliate your skin about one week before your treatment. Temporarily stop all retinoid creams, glycolic, salicylic, or lactic acid treatment as part of your daily skin care routine. Don't add any new products right before your treatment to avoid problems with irritation.
