Persistent wrinkles, sunspots, acne scars, and uneven skin texture can leave your complexion looking tired or worn, creating frustration despite careful skincare. Our laser resurfacing procedures in Denver, CO, offer a targeted solution by precisely removing damaged layers of skin, stimulating collagen, and promoting natural renewal. This approach addresses the root of cosmetic concerns, improving skin tone, texture, and clarity while providing results that are both noticeable and long-lasting, helping patients feel more confident in their appearance.
Laser resurfacing is a skin treatment that uses concentrated beams of light to target the outer layers of the skin. It works by precisely removing damaged or aged skin cells to encourage the growth of new, healthy skin. The procedure is performed in our medspa using specialized laser equipment. Most sessions last between 30 minutes and two hours, depending on the size of the area being treated.
Ablative laser resurfacing removes the outer layers of the skin to target skin imperfections. By vaporizing damaged tissue, this procedure triggers the body’s natural healing response, encouraging the growth of fresh, healthy skin. Ablative resurfacing is often used for deeper wrinkles, acne scars, and areas with more pronounced sun damage. While it typically requires a longer recovery period, the results can be dramatic and transformative, offering a smoother complexion. The precision of ablative lasers allows us to focus treatment on specific areas while minimizing impact on surrounding skin.
Non-ablative lasers work by penetrating the deeper layers of the skin without removing the surface, making the treatment less invasive. This procedure stimulates collagen production beneath the skin, promoting gradual renewal and improvement in texture, tone, and firmness. Although multiple sessions are often needed, patients frequently notice a significant improvement over time. This approach enables effective skin rejuvenation with minimal downtime, making it a popular choice for individuals seeking results without extensive recovery.
The initial consultation is an essential first step in addressing your skin concerns and achieving a more youthful appearance. During this visit, our provider will assess your skin, discuss your goals, and determine the most appropriate approach for your needs. This is also an opportunity to review what to expect during and after the procedure, including the number of sessions that might be recommended. Many patients schedule their first treatment shortly after the consultation, feeling confident that the plan is tailored specifically to them. By starting with this personalized assessment, you can take the first step toward smoother, revitalized skin.
Before the procedure begins, the treatment area is thoroughly cleansed to remove any makeup, oils, or debris. Depending on the patient’s needs and the depth of treatment, a topical anesthetic or local anesthesia is applied to ensure comfort throughout the session. Our provider also marks the specific areas to be treated, ensuring precise coverage of the skin’s surface while protecting surrounding tissue.
After undergoing laser skin treatment, proper care is crucial to ensure your skin heals effectively and achieves the best possible outcome. During the recovery period, most patients experience redness, swelling, and mild sensitivity in the treated areas. While non-ablative treatments often allow for minimal downtime, ablative procedures may require a more extended healing phase.
