Do you want to turn back the clock?

Laser resurfacing is one of the most advanced skin rejuvenation treatments available. Who, over a certain age, hasn’t stared in the mirror and wished to turn back the clock? If only it were possible to lift and tighten the skin on your face – but without resorting to the surgeon’s knife.

Fractional skin resurfacing is hugely effective as an anti-ageing rejuvenation treatment which removes lines and wrinkles, tightens skin, evens out skin tone, repairs sun damage, hyper-pigmentation and smooths out rough skin. It can also treat deeper skin concerns such as scarring including acne scars, in particular, Lasers are more effective than any topical treatment, being able to go deeper allows us to really break down the damaged tissue and in doing so creates a wound healing response that stimulates new cells to replace the old tissue.

We can focus on specific areas such as around the eyes or mouth, or treat the whole face. We can also treat the neck, chest, hands and arms.

How often will I need treatment?

The results of laser resurfacing are both immediate and progressive. Improvement is evident after the first session, but for optimum results, 3 to 5 treatment sessions are often advised.

Treatment is carried every 2 to 6 weeks, depending upon the level of rejuvenation required.

How the fractional laser works?

The energy from the laser creates tiny columns of thermal destruction in the skin thus creating a wound healing response that stimulates the growth of new, healthy skin cells to replace old, damaged cells. “It’s really working from the inside out,” Accelerating the skins cell turnover and collagen production, which is just the body’s natural wound healing response process accelerated.

Am I suitable for treatment?

Treatment is suitable for most people and highly recommended for individuals wanting a brighter, more even skin tone, smoother skin texture with improved elasticity, a reduction of wrinkle, reduced pore size and improvement to scars including acne scars and stretch marks.

How is the treatment carried out?

The skin is cleansed and the hand piece is moved over the skin delivering tiny microscopic laser beams. After treatment the skin is cooled to minimise any discomfort.

How long does each treatment session take?

Typically treatment times vary depending on the skin condition and the area being treated, but will range from 10 to 40 minutes.

How does the treatment feel?

A warming sensation is felt during treatment, with some mild stinging. After treatment cooling packs are often utilised to minimise discomfort.

What should I expect after treatment?

You will experience a mild sunburnt sensation for a few hours after treatment and the skin may be red for 1 or 2 days. This is a normal sign that the skin is healing at a deep level. Some swelling is likely but minimal, and resolves in 2 to 3 days. As the healing process occurs, your skin may have a bronzed appearance that lasts from 3 to 10 days, depending on the treatment level. Your skin will naturally exfoliate and may flake as if you had mild sunburn.

How many treatments are necessary?

Improvement is evident after the first session, but for optimum results 3 to 5 treatment sessions may be required. Treatment is carried out every 2 to 6 weeks, depending on the level of rejuvenation required.

Are there any side effects?e

Skin redness, swelling and the bronzing appearance described above are all expected outcomes of treatment. Other unwanted effects are rare but can include a small blister or temporary change to skin pigmentation, such as darkening of the skin.
