FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

when will i see results?

The Lumenis® ResurFX™ Photofractional™ treatment works with your skin to stimulate deep collagen regeneration over a sequence of treatments. Already after the first session, you may begin to notice improvement. Our patients love the pore-minimizing and skin-tightening effects from ResurFX™ treatment. Depending on the severity of skin texture, fine lines, or skin laxity, about 2-3 sessions may be needed for visible improvement. You may continue to notice improvements for up to six months following the treatment.

what can i expect after treatment?

Immediately following treatment, you may experience some redness or swelling, like a light sunburn, depending on your customized treatment settings. The swelling will usually diminish after a few hours and the redness as quickly as the next day or over the next few days. Most patients are able to quickly resume their daily activities.

how does it work?

The ResurFX™ fractional laser stimulates the production of new collagen and elastic fibers in the deeper layers of the skin. Stimulating new collagen production is the key to a more radiant, youthful skin.

the treatment

To ensure utmost comfort, your physician should typically apply a topical numbing cream before treatment and reapply during treatment if necessary. Depending on your specific concern, you can expect the session to last 30-45 minutes. You may temporarily experience a warm, “spicy” sensation as the laser is applied to the skin. Our estheticians will provide you with detailed, post-treatment instructions including serums to calm the skin.
