Laser Skin Resurfacing
Laser skin resurfacing rejuvenates the skin by removing damaged outer layers and stimulating collagen renewal beneath.
It treats wrinkles, scars, pigmentation, and uneven texture, improving tone and clarity.
Using advanced fractional or ablative lasers, the skin’s surface is renewed safely and precisely.
At CureU Healthcare, dermatologic experts customize treatment depth and wavelength for natural, long-lasting results with minimal downtime.
Overview And Clinical Background
This procedure uses focused laser energy to vaporize micro-layers of skin, triggering controlled healing and collagen synthesis.
It’s effective for reversing age-related damage, acne scars, and sun-induced discoloration.
- Mechanism: Removes damaged skin cells and promotes regeneration through collagen stimulation.
- Fractional lasers create tiny treatment zones, allowing faster healing and minimal scarring.
- Treatment depth: Customizable depending on severity—from superficial fine lines to deep scars.
Symptoms, Signs And Presentation
Candidates often have fine lines, sunspots, acne scars, or dull, uneven skin.
It’s suitable for those seeking smoother texture and improved tone.
- Common concern: Wrinkles around eyes, mouth, or forehead, and post-acne scarring.
- Pigmentation patches or age spots from prolonged sun exposure.
- Red flag: Recent use of retinoids or open skin lesions should delay treatment.
Diagnosis Methods And Investigations
Pre-Treatment Skin Evaluation
A dermatologist examines the skin type, tone, and damage extent to choose laser type—CO2, Er:YAG, or fractional.
Test areas ensure correct intensity and tolerance.
- Skin analysis: Determines collagen health, pigmentation, and elasticity to set laser parameters.
- Patch test: Ensures safety for sensitive or darker skin tones.
- Pre-procedure photos help document improvement post-treatment.
Treatment Options And Surgical Techniques
Laser resurfacing may be ablative (removes outer layer) or non-ablative (stimulates collagen beneath skin).
Sessions last 30–90 minutes with numbing cream for comfort.
- CO2 laser: Best for deep wrinkles and scars, offering dramatic rejuvenation results.
- Er:YAG laser: Gentle option for mild to moderate lines with quicker recovery.
- Fractional lasers blend both approaches—precision with faster healing.
Recovery, Risks And Prognosis
Mild redness and peeling occur as new skin forms.
Healing takes 5–10 days, depending on intensity.
Sunscreen and hydration are vital for protection and lasting glow.
