Laser resurfacing can be performed with the Pixel laser. The Pixel laser is a fractional ablative laser that gives the most unsurpassed treatment offered for skin laser resurfacing. It stimulates collagen regeneration at the same time improving the quality and texture of the dermis.
Laser Resurfacing Procedure
A prearranged laser beam is passed transversely over your face. The beam penetrates your skin making an ablative and thermal episode without troubling any of the surrounding tissue. The treated areas begin their course of healing as the collagen is rejuvenated; your skin tightens leaving you with a smoother surface texture.
Full results are evident 1-3 months after treatment, and some side effects like peeling and redness may occur temporarily. Because a laser is involved it minimizes the chances of infection. It is not necessary to have pain medication and in most cases you can go back to work immediately following treatment.
