A laser resurfacing procedure is ideal for men and women who wish to improve the appearance of such common skin issues as pimples and acne scars, skin discoloration like age spots or sunspots, wrinkles and fine lines, crow’s feet, and mild to moderate skin laxity. Before the procedure, your provider may recommend specific steps and/or treatments to prepare your skin for treatment. It’s important that you strictly follow these to ensure the best results are achieved. Aggressive skin resurfacing is not advised for patients with darker skin types.
