What is Skin Resurfacing?

Skin resurfacing is a treatment designed to improve the overall look and feel of the skin; this includes creating a more even tone and smoother texture.

Here at Houston Injections, we offer laser skin resurfacing treatment. This is a precise procedure that involves removing skin layer by layer. During the healing process, new skin cells form, which produce much tighter and smoother skin.

Depending on the treatment area, the procedure can be done as quickly as a matter of minutes.

For many patients, this is a great option due to the convenience of its short treatment time. Moreover, the treatment is painless with proven results that the effects last for a long time.

What is the Process for Receiving Skin Resurfacing?

Consultation

For all patients, we require you to undergo a consultation with one of our skilled providers before receiving treatment; this allows us to get to know your skincare goals and medical history. We’ll also assess your skin to ensure laser treatment is right for you. 

Once we’ve determined that skin resurfacing is the appropriate treatment pathway, we’ll provide information on how to prep your skin for laser skin resurfacing, including instructions such as: 

  • Avoid sun exposure
  • Which skin care products you shouldn’t use
  • Any medications you shouldn’t take

Day Of Skin Resurfacing Treatment

During the treatment, your eyes will be protected by goggles or a covering. We’ll then begin passing the laser over the treated area in order to remove the outer layer of the skin. Our providers will monitor your skin’s reaction throughout the procedure and will make adjustments to the treatment as necessary.

Aftercare and Recovery

Following the procedure, we’ll provide you with instructions on how to take care of your skin so it heals properly. This will include instructions such as:

  • Which skin care products to apply
  • Avoiding contact with the sun
  • Applying any dressings

 

Results vary depending on the individual, however, you will usually see immediate results following the treatment. The full results will gradually set in between a few days to a few weeks depending on the intensity of the treatment received. Full results can last for several years following the treatment.
