Skin that is treated with laser resurfacing can react in all sorts of different ways, and most people may feel like they have mild sunburn with some redness and swelling. You might also experience stinging or itching for a few days following the procedure. Depending on the treatment, some people may appear to have sunburn. The skin may appear to be raw and may even blister. After about five days to a week after the laser skin resurfacing treatment, your skin might become dry and peel. The full recovery time, depending on the actual procedure and patient, is between one to two weeks.

The procedure for laser skin resurfacing is quite unique and innovative. Laser skin resurfacing can be used to treat the following concerns: scars, age spots, acne scars, crow’s feet, warts, uneven skin tone, sagging skin, and fine lines and wrinkles. The technique of laser skin resurfacing directs short, concentrated pulsating beams of light at aged or damaged skin, and precisely removes the skin layer by layer, and in the process promotes collagen production. New collagen fibers help produce new skin that is smoother and firmer.

Just like many other cosmetic procedures, the clock goes backward but never turns off. Aging is a fact of life, but most of us want to age as gracefully as possible. While there is no permanent aesthetic treatment of the face, laser resurfacing can achieve noticeable results and it may help removed damaged skin on the surface and goes deep into the dermis to stimulate growth of new, healthy skin, therefore helping reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and scars. Laser skin resurfacing results are considered to be long lasting, and the longevity of the results can be extended with proper care. This means that skin care regiment, geographic location and sun exposure will all play a role in how long the results last following the treatment. Laser skin resurfacing is not permanent, but it can last quite a while with good upkeep.
