What to Expect During a Skin Resurfacing Appointment

Skin resurfacing is a cosmetic procedure that can rejuvenate the skin by reducing wrinkles and other imperfections. This minimally invasive treatment can help restore a youthful glow and improve skin texture. Understanding the process of skin resurfacing and what to expect during a skin resurfacing appointment can help you make the right decision.

Process of Skin Resurfacing

Skin resurfacing procedures utilize various techniques to remove damaged skin cells and stimulate collagen production.

They include chemical peels and microdermabrasion. Chemical peels involve applying a chemical solution to the skin, which causes the outermost layers to peel away, revealing fresh, new skin underneath.

On the other hand, microdermabrasion involves the use of a handheld device to exfoliate the outer layer of the skin. It removes dead skin cells and promotes cell turnover. This gentle exfoliation can improve your skin tone, feel, and complexion.

An Overview of Your Skin Resurfacing Session

During a skin resurfacing appointment, we will assess your skin type and concerns to determine the most appropriate treatment. We will then discuss the procedure in detail, including the expected results, potential risks, and aftercare instructions.

Once you are ready to proceed with the treatment, we will prepare your skin by cleansing it thoroughly and applying a topical numbing cream. We will perform the resurfacing technique according to the predetermined treatment plan.

Depending on the intensity of the treatment, you may experience sensations such as warmth, tingling, or mild discomfort throughout the procedure. We will monitor your skin’s response and adjust the settings accordingly to achieve optimal results.

We will provide comprehensive aftercare instructions and give you an idea of what to expect in terms of any aftereffects. We are always here to answer your questions!
