What is Laser Skin Resurfacing?
Laser skin resurfacing at Palm Beach Dermatology is a noninvasive aesthetic procedure that uses pulsating beams of energy to enhance skin texture. The treatment is used for reducing facial lines and wrinkles and for improving skin flaws such as acne scars, pigmentation, and other issues. Palm Beach Dermatology utilizes the Candela Nordlys 1550 and 1940 handpieces, which leverage advanced fractionated laser technology to precisely target deeper layers of the skin, effectively treating concerns like uneven texture, acne scars, and fine lines while promoting natural collagen production. Sometimes known as a laser peel, laser skin resurfacing is considered an effective procedure for patients who want clearer, softer, younger-looking skin. Depending on the condition of the patient's skin type, the treatment can be customized to fit individual needs. Contact our Boca Raton, FL facility today to schedule your initial consultation for laser skin resurfacing.

Palm Beach Dermatology Reviews
If I could give 100 stars I would. After being discouraged from being told from many doctors I need a referral I reached out to PBD via email and the next morning I get a call from Diana asking when I can come in. I get an appointment within a day and the next week I got my tumor removed and I am cancer free and going to get stitches removed tomorrow. Dr Aldahan and all your staff are amazing and I am forever grateful for all you’ve done
Great Mohs experience - Experience was great! Dr. Aldahan was excellent and had great bedside manner. He walked me through my skin cancer treatments and put my mind at ease. My entire MOHS surgery experience went smoothly. The snacks in the waiting room were an added bonus. The office is clean and comfortable.
This guy's great, fabulous. One of the best dermatologists in Florida! Found a skin cancer and took care of it immediately with hardly any scar. The front desk staff was amazing.

I had a wonderful experience. From the moment I walked in I was greeted warmly with a genuine smile by Diana at the front desk. The office is beautiful and clean. When Dr. Aldahan walked in my fear and anxiety were immediately extinguished. He made me feel so comfortable and confident with his amicable demeanor and detailed explanations. I highly recommend Dr. Aldahan and his practice.

Am I A Candidate for Laser Skin Resurfacing?
You have several factors to think about when deciding which method of laser skin resurfacing treatment is best for you. Laser skin resurfacing is ideal for anyone who is unhappy with their skin's appearance. If you see skin damaged by the sun, acne scars, age spots, fine lines and wrinkles, redness, or pigmentation concerns, this procedure may help improve these imperfections. Also, it works wonders for patients who have scaly patches, rough texture, or other skin surface problems. Laser skin resurfacing isn't suggested if you have very dark skin tones or active acne. In addition, it is important to be aware that there is downtime associated with this laser therapy. Some patients, depending on the condition of their skin, may require up to 2 – 3 weeks for their skin to normalize.
Laser Skin Resurfacing FAQ
What's the best type of resurfacing for me?
Our team can help you decide which laser resurfacing option is best for your concerns and goals in your initial consultation. The best treatment for you will depend on the health of your skin, your skin issues, and the skin depth you want your treatment to reach. The length of recovery time might also be an important consideration when you create a treatment plan. If you are in doubt, starting with a milder treatment is best to see how you like your outcomes and decide if you want something stronger for your second treatment.
Should I get laser skin resurfacing, a chemical peel, or dermabrasion?
After listening to your issues, our team will help you decide if laser skin resurfacing, dermabrasion, or a chemical fits your needs and goals. While they all improve your skin, each has its own pros and cons. In your initial consultation, our staff can review each choice and make a recommendation for your treatment plan.
How often should I get laser resurfacing treatments?
