Is Skin Resurfacing for You?

When choosing which laser procedure is right for your skin, we will consider multiple factors. Laser skin resurfacing is designed for patients who feel unsatisfied with their overall complexion. If you see sun damage, acne scars, age spots, fine lines and wrinkles, or pigmentation. This procedure may help reduce your complexion issues. Also, it works well if you have rough texture, scaly patches, or other skin surface problems. Laser treatment isn’t suggested for anyone who has very dark skin tones or active acne outbreaks. Also, it’s important to understand that you will have some recovery time associated with your laser treatments. Some patients, depending on the condition of their skin, may require as much as 2-3 weeks for their skin to normalize.

Your Laser Skin Resurfacing Treatment

If you are scheduled for a deeper or more intense laser treatment, our medical team will suggest you use Versailles Medical Spa’s clinically proven Kurative cream for a few weeks before your laser procedure. The Kurative cream helps prep the skin for maximum results. Prior to the procedure, the medical provider will use a topical anesthetic cream to numb the treated area to make the procedure more comfortable. The provider will then use the hand-held device and perform laser glides over the skin, precisely targeting the needed areas for improvement. You will feel the heat from the laser followed by cold air from the system’s built-in cooling device. The laser works to destroy dead and damaged skin cells while also stimulating new collagen growth.

What to Expect

Following lighter laser treatments, a healing ointment is applied to the skin and you can return home for recovery. The treated skin may look pink, and you will experience some swelling and irritation. These symptoms subside in a few days, and the healing process lasts over a 5-7 day timeframe. If you undergo a deeper laser peel, your downtime may last longer. In some cases, irritation, swelling, and burning side effects may occur. The estimated downtime for laser skin resurfacing may last up to last 1-2 weeks. All patients need to limit their sun exposure after their laser treatment and use sun protection regularly. Regardless of the intensity of the peel, the skin will naturally flake, crust, and peel away. It’s crucial to avoid interfering with the healing process to prevent scarring and to protect your skin from environmental exposure. Once the peeling is finished, your skin should feel smoother while also looking clearer, younger, and rejuvenated.

Fraxel Skin Resurfacing CT Frequently Asked Questions

There are three types of laser resurfacing skin procedures that are selected based on your skin’s needs. Some are performed for milder cases of skin damage, while others are more aggressive:

  • Ablative Laser Treatments
    Ablative lasers eliminate thin layers of skin similar to a deep chemical peel or dermabrasion with a precision that allows the laser technician to reduce damage to the skin. Ablative lasers are ideal for firming the skin, as well as removing wrinkles and acne scars.
  • Non-Ablative Laser Treatments
    Non-ablative lasers don’t remove any skin — the light creates micro-damage to the skin cells to prompt natural skin healing. Non-ablative treatments are great for addressing fine lines and wrinkles on those who are willing to wait several months for strong results.
  • Fractional Laser Treatments
    Fractional laser treatments are a combination of non-ablative and ablative that create small holes in the deep skin layers. The body’s automatic healing leads to tighter skin. We may use fractional lasers to treat fine lines, deep wrinkles, sun damage, acne scars, and uneven pigmentation.

Fraxel Dual is a type of laser skin treatment that uses fractional laser technology to target specific areas of the skin. It's designed to address various skin concerns, such as fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, sun damage, and uneven skin tone. The "Dual" in its name refers to its ability to use two different wavelengths of laser energy for more versatile results.

Fraxel Dual works by creating tiny, controlled micro-injuries in the skin's deeper layers using laser energy. This stimulates the skin's natural healing process, leading to the production of new collagen and the replacement of damaged skin cells with healthier tissue. The result is improved skin texture, tone, and a reduction in various skin imperfections.

While discomfort varies from person to person, many individuals describe the sensation during a Fraxel Dual treatment as a mild heat or prickling feeling. A topical numbing cream is often applied before the procedure to minimize any potential discomfort.

The number of sessions required can vary depending on the specific skin concern being addressed and the desired results. However, many people undergo a series of 3 to 5 treatments, spaced about 2 to 4 weeks apart, to achieve optimal outcomes.

A Fraxel Dual or a Fraxel Restore laser skin resurfacing treatment offers excellent results if you want a younger-looking complexion.
