How should I prepare for my laser resurfacing treatment?

Because ResurFX laser resurfacing is not a surgical procedure, it does not require an intensive preparation process. However, for the best possible results, there are some steps you can take to prepare your skin. 1 month before your treatment, limit sun/UV exposure as much as possible (you should avoid tanning beds in particular). Avoid any intense skin treatments, like exfoliators, for at least 1 week before your session. On the day of your session, be sure to show up to the clinic with clean skin—this means you shouldn’t wear any lotions or tanners. We want a clean surface to work with.

What does the recovery process look like?

After your session, you may need to take a few days of social downtime as your skin heals. You may experience some minor swelling and redness in the treatment area but can return to your normal schedule and lifestyle after these symptoms abate.

Are there any side effects to the ResurFX treatment?

You shouldn’t experience any prominent side effects following ResurFX laser resurfacing in Mishawaka, IN. However, you may experience some minor aesthetic symptoms as your skin heals. You can expect mild redness, swelling, and flaking in the days after your treatment, but this should abate soon. To reduce swelling, apply a cold compress to the treatment area. If you have any questions about the side effects you’re experiencing after your ResurFX treatment, give our providers a call. We’re always here to answer any questions you have.

Are laser skin resurfacing results permanent?

No, the results of laser resurfacing in Mishawaka aren’t permanent, but they are long-lasting. You can experience clearer, tighter skin for as long as two years after your treatment plan is complete. Our experts can give you personalized advice on how to best maintain these results. For instance, we suggest you develop a dedicated skincare plan to enjoy clear and healthy skin for as long as possible. You should also avoid any habits that might prematurely age your skin, including smoking and excessive alcohol consumption. Additionally, always wear sunscreen of at least 30 SPF before exposing your skin to direct sunlight. When your results wane, we can schedule additional treatments so you can enjoy clearer skin indefinitely.

Treat Skin Damage for a More Even Appearance

The skin is one of your most vital organs. It protects the rest of your body from outside pollutants, harsh temperatures, germs and bacteria, and the sun’s harmful rays.

But this protection doesn’t come without cost—damage may appear in the form of wrinkles, fine lines, and discoloration. However, with the ResurFX, which we use for laser resurfacing in Mishawaka, we can reduce this damage for beautiful, glowing skin.

How Laser Skin Resurfacing Works

Laser skin resurfacing in Mishawaka works by heating up the dermal layers of the skin to induce the production of collagen and elastin proteins. These proteins are an important part of the body’s natural healing process because they heal damaged skin and provide renewed texture, tightness, and firmness.

First Meeting

If you’re interested in laser resurfacing in Mishawaka, then schedule an appointment with our aesthetic experts. We can examine your skin concerns in person and determine whether the ResurFX is the ideal treatment for your needs. If so, we can get started on your treatment plan, and if not, we can recommend an alternative treatment that more closely aligns with your needs.

Treatment

Treatment is simple and comfortable. When you come in for your session, our team members pass the ResurFX laser resurfacing applicator over the treatment area. The device comes equipped with specialized cooling technology. This prevents discomfort and protects the treated skin from becoming overheated. The session should only last around 30 minutes, though this varies depending on the treatment area.

Results

Following your treatment session for laser skin resurfacing in Mishawaka, you can expect to see initial results immediately, and they may continue to improve for up to 6 months. You shouldn’t need any extensive recovery. Although we do recommend taking a few days of “social downtime” as your skin heals. Our providers give personalized recovery advice after your session is complete, and we’re always happy to answer any questions you may have during the post-care process.
