Frequently Asked Questions

How does laser skin resurfacing work?

Laser skin resurfacing reverses the effects of aging by destroying damaged, aging skin. Depending on the treatment technique, the laser may remove the surface skin from the treated area, or it may remove columns of damaged skin (such as acne scars). The body naturally replaces the old, damaged skin with a fresh, healthy layer of skin tissue. Treatment can be performed to various depths to address damage ranging from fine lines to deep creases.

What signs of aging can laser skin resurfacing correct?

Laser skin resurfacing can correct signs of aging such as fine lines, wrinkles, sun spots, age spots, other pigmented lesions, vascular lesions, and textural irregularities. It can also correct acne scars.

Can laser skin resurfacing be performed on all skin types?

With the Sciton JOULE™ platform, laser skin resurfacing can be safely performed on all skin types. Dr. Poris will determine the safest and best technique for your needs.

Which laser treatment should I get?

Dr. Poris offers a wide range of laser treatments that can be completely customized to meet your needs. Because every patient has unique skin, the appropriate laser technique for you will be personal to you. Dr. Poris will help you understand which laser treatment technique will best help you achieve your skin rejuvenation goals. 

What results can I expect?

How long will the results last?

Results from laser skin resurfacing can be long-lasting. The best way to maintain your results is to adopt good skin care practices and wear daily sun protection. Regular laser resurfacing treatments every few years can also help you maintain your results long-term.
