What is laser resurfacing?

Laser skin resurfacing in Tulsa is among the popular and effective choices for skincare at our world-class medspa. The treatment not only rids the complexion of surface-level imperfections and impurities but also works on a deeper level to enhance collagen production, allowing for longer-term skin suppleness and vitality. Collagen is a key protein that hydrates, smooths, and replenishes the skin, leading to a more youthful, attractive appearance. Laser skin resurfacing can be utilized to rejuvenate the face, neck, hands, back, and chest regions.

Benefits of laser skin resurfacing

Laser skin resurfacing can give you a new lease on life, allowing you to put your best face forward. Advantages include:

  • Corrects acne scarring
  • Refines the skin’s tone and texture
  • Eradicates lines, creases, and wrinkles
  • Treats enlarged pores
  • Reduces sun damage
  • Firms sagging skin
  • Encourages collagen regeneration
  • Boosts self-confidence and well-being

Who is a good candidate for laser skin resurfacing in Tulsa?

Laser skin resurfacing in Tulsa is an excellent option for patients seeking the dual benefit of clarifying and toning the outer skin layer while boosting collagen production to strengthen and fortify the skin’s underlying structure. As with most cosmetic procedures, patients should be healthy and have realistic expectations for their results based on a private consultation with our knowledgeable, caring team. Those with active skin infections or disorders may not be candidates for laser skin resurfacing. Additionally, patients with more significant skin ptosis may require a surgical solution rather than laser therapy.

What can I expect after my treatment?

After your Tulsa laser skin resurfacing appointment, we will coat your skin with pharmaceutical-grade skincare products and apply a light dressing. Your provider will prescribe painkillers to help keep you comfortable during your healing process. You can also use over-the-counter pain medications and ice to diminish any lingering soreness.

For the first few days, your skin may feel warm and tight. Gradually, the outermost damaged layer of skin will begin to peel off. This is perfectly normal and is no cause for alarm. You will be instructed to continue hydrating your skin with medical-grade products several times a day. Within about ten days, you will have completed the recovery process.

How long does laser skin resurfacing take?

Most sessions take anywhere from 30 to 90 minutes. The length of your sessions depends on the regions addressed and the severity of your skin concerns.

Does laser skin resurfacing hurt?

Prior to your session, your skin will be treated with a topical numbing agent. This ensures that the treatment is painless and comfortable. After your session, you will be able to take painkillers as needed to cope with any post-procedure discomfort. We are committed to delivering a stress-free treatment process.

Can I see results right away?

While you may see some initial improvements right away, your full results will become apparent within a few months as collagen production slowly increases. The initial pink skin color will slowly fade, replaced by a more vibrant and radiant complexion.

Are there side effects?

Side effects are minimal as long as you choose a reputable provider such as those at Highwater Aesthetics in Tulsa. Risks associated with laser skin resurfacing include burns, scarring, and pigment changes. The treatment can also lead to cold sores for certain patients.

How does laser skin resurfacing stand out from other skincare treatments?

While other skincare treatments typically target only surface-level imperfections, laser skin resurfacing vaporizes the outermost layer of damaged skin while simultaneously encouraging collagen renewal at the skin’s deeper levels. This means smoother, blemish-free skin along with firmer, tighter skin contours.
