Who is an ideal candidate?
Skin resurfacing is an effective treatment for those looking to reduce visible signs of aging, including fine lines, wrinkles, and early skin laxity. It’s also ideal for patients seeking to minimize acne scars, blemishes, uneven skin tone, and texture irregularities. The treatment is tailored to individual skin concerns, making it suitable for anyone looking to refresh and improve the overall appearance of their skin while maintaining a natural, healthy look.
Is there any downtime?
The downtime for skin resurfacing varies depending on the treatment chosen and your desired results. Some procedures have minimal recovery, while deeper treatments may require a few days of healing. At Ottawa Derm & Surgery Centre, we take a personalized, long-term approach to skin health, combining advanced resurfacing treatments with a consistent, tailored skincare regimen designed by our skin consultants and medical team to maintain results and prevent signs of aging.
How does skin resurfacing feel?
The sensation during skin resurfacing depends on the specific treatment being performed. Some procedures may cause mild to moderate discomfort, while others feel gentler. Where needed, a topical numbing cream or other comfort measures are applied to ensure the treatment is well-tolerated, allowing most patients to complete their session comfortably.
How long does a treatment take?
The duration of a skin resurfacing treatment varies depending on the type of procedure and the areas being treated. Most sessions range from 30 minutes to 90 minutes, including preparation and any numbing if required. Your provider will give you a personalized estimate based on your skin concerns, treatment goals, and selected procedure.
When will I notice results?
Results from skin resurfacing often appear gradually. Many patients notice improvements in texture, tone, and overall brightness within a few days to a week. More significant results, such as reduced fine lines, improved scars, and enhanced firmness, typically develop over several weeks as collagen production increases. Ongoing treatments and a consistent, tailored skincare routine help maintain and enhance these results for smoother, healthier-looking skin.
