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.
How Does Laser Skin Resurfacing Work?
At Palm Beach Dermatology, we utilize the advanced Candela Nordlys 1550 and 1940 handpieces, which allow for precise targeting of specific areas based on your unique skin concerns. The laser stimulates collagen production to rejuvenate and improve your skin’s overall texture and appearance.
During the procedure, you will relax in our treatment chair while the laser glides over your skin, emitting laser energy to improve damaged skin cells. The built-in cooling technology of the Nordlys system ensures comfort by delivering a soothing burst of cool air during the treatment.
What to Expect Following Laser Skin Resurfacing
After undergoing laser skin resurfacing at Palm Beach Dermatology in Boca Raton, FL, you can expect a recovery period that varies based on the depth and type of laser used. Initially, treated areas may appear red and swollen and feel similar to a sunburn. Within the first week, the skin typically begins to peel or flake as new, rejuvenated skin emerges underneath. It's crucial to keep the area clean and moisturized, following your provider's specific aftercare instructions. Avoiding sun exposure and applying a broad-spectrum sunscreen daily is essential to protect the healing skin. Over the following weeks, any residual redness will gradually fade, revealing smoother, more youthful-looking skin. Full results can continue to improve over several months as collagen production is stimulated.?

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.

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?
