The Benefits of Laser Resurfacing

Your skin helps you look great, and when your skin is dull, it affects your appearance. Many factors can affect your skin. Aging, sun damage, environmental toxins, diet, and lifestyle habits can all cause your skin to appear lifeless, dull, and uneven. Laser resurfacing is all about removing the dead skin cells and other substances, revealing revitalized, beautiful skin.

How Laser Resurfacing Can Help You

Laser resurfacing offers many important benefits. Consider that laser resurfacing can reduce the appearance of:

  • Lines and wrinkles
  • Acne and acne scarring
  • Uneven skin tone and texture
  • Sun damage and age spots
  • Hyperpigmentation
  • Actinic Keratosis
  • Skin abnormalities

After laser resurfacing treatment, you can expect:

  • Younger, more vibrant-looking skin
  • Smoother, unlined skin
  • A more even skin tone
  • Diminished fine lines and wrinkles
  • Faded, less noticeable acne scarring
  • Diminished appearance of sun damage

Laser resurfacing uses light and heat to penetrate the deeper layers of your skin, promoting natural, effective skin enhancement. Laser resurfacing treatment will:

  • Increase collagen production, to promote younger-looking skin
  • Remove dead skin cells and revitalize your skin
  • Tap into your body’s natural healing properties to create new, more youthful skin

During your laser resurfacing treatment, your dermatology provider will use either a pulsed-dye laser or intense pulsed light therapy. Each of these lasers has a low risk of side effects and requires minimal to no downtime so you can get back to your day.

Your laser resurfacing treatment will take between 15 and 45 minutes depending on the size of the area treated and your skin characteristics.1 to 5 treatments are recommended to attain optimal results. Results are cumulative, so each subsequent laser resurfacing treatment will further enhance the beauty of your skin.

After your laser resurfacing treatment, it’s important to protect your skin from exposure to sun, cold, wind, and other irritants. Wear a sunscreen of at least SPF 50 after your laser resurfacing treatment.

Karen F.

I went for a facial with Reganne, and it was wonderful! She was the right balance of chatty and quiet so that I felt personally welcomed but also able to relax and soak in all the luxurious treatment. She also was so kind and considerate, being very careful which products she used because she knew I am sensitive to some fragrances. I scheduled my appointment for the end of my regular work week, and now, this evening I’m feeling fabulous!

RJ and MJ Olson

We both chose the practice for our dermatology well checks and any issues that may be discovered during those visits. Most of the practitioners have been great. I also enjoy the facial services they offer at the practice. Both estheticians I have seen there have been wonderful! They have both been very accommodating given multiple allergies that can make my skin reactive. I look forward to my time with the esthetician.

Cathy Robinson

The entire staff is courteous and very helpful. They were right on time. They work together well. They are accepting of questions and are willing to answer the questions. They offer reminders for follow up appointments. I am very pleased to be a patient of this office.

Susan Zeller

As a new patient I greatly appreciated getting an appointment with a few days of submitting my application form instead of a long wait. The staff at the front desk were very pleasant, efficient and helpful in making this happen. The service I received from my doctor was good.

Tom

David M was great in all key areas that were important to me. Skill, bedside manner, updates during the surgery and his summary after the procedure. His nurse was also first rate. Thank you both for all that you did for me. NP Donna has treated me previously at this practice and I echo my comments here for her and the nurses, reception and scheduling employees. Thank you all for a great experience

Jennifer Gemmell

This was the most pleasant doctors appointment I’ve ever experienced. The wait wasn’t too long and there were so many beautiful and interesting things to look at while I was there: beautiful art well presented with identification and background details, fascinating terrariums and other plants, and even an Asian meditation garden. Dr. Macallister was very personable, professional and thorough. I was quite happy with her care. The staff too, were professional and pleasant.

Reece W

Saw Donna and Megan, had a concerning spot on my face. I needed an injection and they put me eat ease and really helped me to feel comfortable and relaxed. Even though the needle stung a little bit I was completely distracted with easy conversation to keep my mind off of what was going on. They were incredibly reassuring and informative and I love going to see them! Thank you Donna and Megan for a quick and easy visit! :)

Don Wood

Great experience from the time I arrived for the appointment til I was finished. Donna Brigham is the most professional specailist I've seen in quite some time. She is very good at explaining everything in layman's terms. Her bedside manner puts you at ease and makes you very comfortable with the procedures she is doing.
