Do’s And Don’ts: How to Prepare for Laser Skin Resurfacing

Having flawless, beautiful skin is always in style, but it can be hard to reach when you’re constantly being plagued by acne, acne scars, wrinkles, and fine lines that just won’t seem to go away on their own. Even some of the best topical products on the market (that cost a fortune) fail to do what they claim they’re going to do. Now, you can breathe new life into your skin with Laser Skin Resurfacing treatments at Être in New Orleans. This skin rejuvenation treatment can help patients reduce the appearance of wrinkles, scars, and a host of other skin concerns, providing you with smoother, vibrant-looking skin. Here are a few dos and don’ts to help you prepare for your procedure.

What Is Laser Skin Resurfacing?

Before we get into the do’s and don’ts of laser skin resurfacing, it’s important to understand exactly what this treatment entails. The laser technique uses short, direct pulsating beams of light at irregular skin, removing the outer layer of skin where the damage can be seen. The lasers stimulate the growth of new collagen fibers, resulting in new skin that is firmer and younger-looking.

The Do’s and The Don’ts

The Benefits of Laser Skin Resurfacing

Hyperpigmentation: Hyperpigmentation can be caused by many factors, including unprotected sun exposure, acne, aging, and more. Hyperpigmentation can give the face a dull or blotchy appearance, but with fractional skin resurfacing your skin can be restored to a bright, fresh complexion. Lines and Wrinkles: Laser skin resurfacing is also a form of collagen induction therapy, which helps your body produce more oil. Collagen naturally fills in fine lines and wrinkles, creating younger, firmer skin. Fractional skin resurfacing can also be used on the most delicate areas of the face, like the eyelid and around the mouth. Texture: While some blemishes can be concealed with cosmetics, textural issues like deep-pitted acne scars, clogged pores, and other surface irregularities cannot be covered by makeup. Fractional skin resurfacing can help fill in surface depressions and improve the texture of your skin.
