What is Laser Skin Resurfacing?

As we age, our skin reflects our past. The days at the beach, stressful times, environmental factors, hormonal changes, and our diets can affect the appearance of skin. If you’re looking to tackle skin concerns such as dullness, uneven skin tone, pigmentation, skin elasticity, fine lines, wrinkles, and enlarged pores, laser skin resurfacing in Indianapolis may be just what you need to achieve healthy, glowing skin again. Our revolutionary laser skin rejuvenation treatment can help reduce the signs of aging and boost your skin’s vitality.

Depending on your unique skin conditions, we calibrate the laser device to deliver specific wavelengths of light energy into the skin. The pigment in the skin absorbs the light energy and gets destroyed, thus improving the skin’s overall texture. We can target unwanted pigmented lesions and numerous other conditions. This treatment can also facilitate collagen production, making your skin look tighter and firmer. The treatment involves little discomfort and minimal downtime.

Your Laser Skin Resurfacing Journey

Before Laser Skin Resurfacing…

Laser skin resurfacing is performed after a thorough consultation and evaluation. The service provider will examine your skin, discuss your goals, and review your medical history. After a thorough assessment, the service provider will curate a treatment plan just for you. The laser device will be calibrated according to your skin color to ensure optimal results, and we may offer some preparatory guidelines to ensure perfect results. Please follow your service provider’s preparatory guidelines accurately.

During Laser Skin Resurfacing…

Laser skin resurfacing in Indianapolis is a fully customizable treatment delivered at the perfect intensity for your skin type and concerns. We can provide everything from mild resurfacing to a more aggressive approach without harming the integrity of your skin’s structure. Clients can expect some heat and tingling as the laser passes over the skin. The number of passes and treatment time depends on the depth of the treatment, but most treatments last between 15 to 20 minutes.

After Laser Skin Resurfacing…

Immediately following the treatment, you will notice some redness and increased sun sensitivity, which will lessen over the next day or so. It is normal for the pigment and debris on the surface of your skin to flake off during this time. In the following 5 to 6 days, your skin will have a dry, sandpaper-like texture. This is normal and will resolve as your skin exfoliates, revealing fresher, clearer skin. You will be given aftercare directions after your treatment to protect your skin.
