What Is Laser Resurfacing?

Laser resurfacing is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure that uses focused laser energy to improve the appearance of the skin. This treatment targets the outer layers of the skin, removing damaged skin cells and stimulating collagen production to promote the growth of new, healthy skin. Laser skin resurfacing in Chicago at Fulcrum Aesthetics addresses various skin concerns, including fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, hyperpigmentation, and uneven skin texture. By harnessing the power of advanced laser technology, this procedure delivers precise and controlled results, revealing a smoother, more youthful complexion.

Laser Resurfacing Recovery & Results

You may experience redness, swelling, and a mild sunburn-like sensation following your laser resurfacing treatment. These effects are normal and typically subside within a few days to a week. Following our post-treatment care instructions, including avoiding sun exposure and using gentle skincare products to support the healing process, is essential.

Most patients notice an improvement in their skin within a few days, with full results becoming more apparent as the skin heals and new collagen forms. Depending on the type of laser used, some patients may require multiple sessions to achieve their desired results. The outcome is a smoother, more radiant complexion with reduced wrinkles, scars, and pigmentation issues.
