How Skin Resurfacing Works

Using a new procedure that is comparable to a surgical facelift, without the large scars. Our nano-fractional skin resurfacing technology uses radio frequency delivered through tiny needles to create micro-dermal wounds with minimal impact on the epidermis. This allows for faster healing of the skin, with minimal downtime and less pain than traditional skin resurfacing/remodeling technologies. This provides dramatic improvement in skin laxity on the face and neck, which was previously only attainable through a surgical procedure such as a facelift. In addition, it resurfaces the skin, addressing large pores, acne scaring, surgical scars, fine lines, and wrinkles.

Most patients receive 3 treatments per area. The exact number will depend on each individual person and the area being treated. Consult with your doctor to determine the best treatment plan for you.

Make sure your skin is clean. Do not apply any lotions, creams, perfumes, powder, or makeup before your treatment session, and avoid tanning. Remove all jewelry around the area being treated. If you have excessive hair on the treatment area, shave it beforehand. Avoid any tanning, including with self-tanners. It also helps to be prepared with information about your medical history—the technician will likely ask about it.

You will feel tiny pins on your skin followed by a little zap. Your face will then feel warm, like a sunburn.

May be slightly uncomfortable, but not painful. You’ll feel intense heat, similar to the feeling of sunburn, and your face will look red right after the treatment. For more aggressive treatments, you may get a topical numbing cream to reduce any discomfort.

Your skin will be red and feel warm afterward, like a sunburn. You can ease this by using the take home serums provided (not the lotions). The warm feeling should go away within 24 – 48 hours.

Yes, around 48 hours post-treatment (or up to 5 days for more aggressive treatments). Your skin will be red and for the first 24 hours, you will not be allowed to apply or rub anything on your skin, including water or sweat (so no hot yoga or any other exercise that will make you perspire). After the 48 hour mark the redness should reduce to very little to no redness and for the following week your skin will feel very rough (like sandpaper). After 48 hours, you may put on makeup and resume your regular skin care routine. You should apply sunscreen (at least SPF 30), preferably one without chemicals. But avoid rigorous exercise and hot baths or massages on the treatment area for the first 2 days after your session. Make sure to keep your skin clean and protected from the sun. Avoid any sort of tanning.

If your skin feels hot, you can use your provided aftercare serums to cool it down. Avoid touching or scratching the treatment area. Do not put lotion, makeup, or anything else on your skin, including water, for 24 hours. After 24 hours, you can apply sunscreen (at least SPF 30), preferably one without chemicals. Also avoid rigorous exercise and hot baths or massages on the treatment area for the first 2 days after your session. Make sure to keep your skin clean and protected from the sun. Avoid any sort of tanning.

No. You should wait until 48 hours after your treatment to apply any makeup or lotion.
