Regain Your Skin’s Radiance With a State-of-the-Art Technique 

Fractional laser resurfacing is an innovative technique that harnesses the power of advanced laser technology to renew the skin's radiance and promote rejuvenation. Through this state-of-the-art method, the outermost layer of damaged skin is precisely targeted and removed, unveiling a fresher, smoother, and more youthful complexion beneath. By creating tiny, controlled micro-injuries, fractional laser resurfacing stimulates the body's natural healing processes, prompting the production of new collagen and elastin fibers. Dr. Bolitho's expert application of this technique ensures impressive results, effectively addressing fine lines, wrinkles, scars, and other signs of aging. As the skin heals, it becomes visibly firmer, tighter, and more even in tone and texture, ultimately revealing a revitalized and youthful appearance.

What to Expect After Your Treatment

Dr. Bolitho's expertise ensures a streamlined healing process, resulting in a rejuvenated and more youthful appearance that lasts for years to come. Recovery and healing after laser skin resurfacing involve several stages, ultimately leading to remarkable results:

  1. Initial Days: The treated area may appear red, swollen, and similar to a sunburn immediately after the procedure.
  2. Peeling: Over the next week or so, the skin will naturally peel, revealing new, smoother skin underneath.
  3. Healing: Within 2-3 weeks, the majority of visible peeling should subside, and any residual redness can be concealed with makeup.
  4. Continued Improvement: Over the next few months, collagen production increases, leading to further improvement in skin texture, tone, and overall radiance.
  5. Final Outcome: Within 3-6 months, the full benefits of laser skin resurfacing become apparent, with minimized wrinkles, reduced scars, and a rejuvenated complexion.
