Downtime is dependent on the type of treatment performed. It can range from a couple days of mild redness, minimal swelling, and dryness to 10 days of more intense redness, swelling, peeling, and scabbing. Your provider will instruct you on what skin care to use following the treatment until the skin is healed. Avoid sun exposure for six weeks following the treatment and apply sunscreen with a minimum SPF of 30 and zinc oxide as an active ingredient.
One can expect improved skin texture and firmness and a decreased appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars. These results will develop in the 3-12 months following a series of treatments.
The effects of laser resurfacing are not permanent, but they can last for several years. To maintain the results of laser resurfacing, it is important to protect your skin from the sun by wearing sunscreen and avoiding prolonged sun exposure.
