ResurFX™ is a non-ablative fractional laser treatment that uses a 1565nm fiber laser to create microscopic heat zones in the skin, stimulating collagen production to improve fine lines, wrinkles, texture, tone, scars, and sun damage with minimal downtime. It's a comfortable, fast procedure, often requiring multiple sessions for best results, offering a lunchtime treatment with mild redness and swelling for a day or two before peeling, revealing smoother, younger-looking skin over weeks.
HOW IT WORKS
Fractional laser: The device delivers controlled laser energy in a fractional pattern, creating tiny micro-injuries to stimulate the skin's natural healing process.
Collagen stimulation: This process triggers deep collagen remodeling, improving skin quality over time.
Single pass technology: ResurFX requires only one pass over the skin, making it efficient and protecting surrounding tissue.
Cooling: Built-in cooling (CoolScan) and continuous contact cooling enhance patient comfort.
WHAT IT TREATS
Fine lines and wrinkles
Acne scars and surgical scars
Skin texture and tone
Sun damage
Stretch marks.
WHAT TO EXPECT
During treatment: A warm, prickly sensation; often combined with topical numbing cream and cooling.
Immediately after: Redness, mild swelling, and a sunburn-like feeling for 24-48 hours.
Days 2-5: Skin feels tight, dry, and may start to flake as it peels.
Weeks 1-4+: Residual redness fades, revealing smoother skin as collagen continues to build.
Downtime: Minimal; most people can return to normal activities quickly.
TYPICAL TREATMENT PLAN
A series of 3-4 treatments, spaced 4 weeks apart, is often recommended for optimal results.
PRE AND POST CARE
