How Do Laser Skin Rejuvenation Treatments Work?

The PicoSure is an FDA-cleared laser that targets treatment areas with rapid bursts of laser energy every picosecond (one trillionth of a second). The speed of the laser pulses makes the procedure safe for all skin types, even darker skin that may be discolored or burned with other laser treatments.

The light beams penetrate the skin’s surface without damaging it, targeting pigmentation and creating controlled injuries that stimulate the body’s natural healing response. This produces new skin cells, resulting in smoother, more youthful-looking skin without discoloration. PicoSure’s laser delivers 3 different wavelengths, enabling your provider to customize the treatment based on your specific concerns.

Patients whose primary concern is lax skin, rough skin texture, or more severe wrinkling may be good candidates for laser skin resurfacing. We also use the PicoSure laser for tattoo removal.

What Happens During a Laser Skin Treatment?

Patients put on protective eyewear before the treatment begins. Most people don’t consider the treatments uncomfortable, but we can apply a cooling cream before the procedure if requested. The treatment itself involves placing the device on the treatment area and moving it across the skin. Our registered nurses, who have more than 30 years of experience combined, perform laser skin rejuvenation treatments under Dr. Vartany’s supervision.

Multiple treatment sessions, which typically take 20 to 30 minutes, are typically needed to achieve the best results.

Preparing for Laser Skin Rejuvenation

Follow these instructions before your treatment appointment:

• No prolonged sun exposure, tanning beds, or sunless tanning cream for 4 weeks prior to treatment
• Use a broad-spectrum UVA/UVB sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher (apply to the treatment area every 2 hours when exposed to the sun)
• Remove all makeup, creams or oils
• If you would like to use numbing cream, apply 30 minutes prior to your scheduled treatment and wrap with an occlusive dressing (such as plastic wrap). This cream may be purchased in our office.

What Is Recovery Like After Laser Skin Rejuvenation?

It’s common to have some minor swelling and redness similar to a sunburn after the treatment, but these side effects typically resolve quickly. Most people can resume their normal activities immediately after laser skin rejuvenation treatment.
