Laser Skin Resurfacing in Delray Beach

When you first arrive, we show you the luxury experience of Delray Laser and Medical Spa. Your provider escorts you to your treatment room before helping you get comfortable. This is where you can ask any last-minute questions or have the process explained to you one final time before treatment begins. After prepping the skin of your treatment area and ensuring the protection of your eyes, we can get started.

Your provider applies the handheld device to your skin, allowing the laser to sink in multiple tissue layers deep. This laser removes the dead skin, damaged cells, or unwanted hair. With this exfoliation method, you can address scarring, acne, wrinkles, and uneven texture in an efficient yet non-ablative way. This fractional technology only targets certain layers at a time, keeping you comfortable throughout the treatment.

Some patients are worried about pain during their laser skin resurfacing in Delray Beach. Rest assured, discomfort is minimal thanks to our topical numbing solution. Most patients typically report the sensation of a rubber band snapping against their skin. If you feel any acute discomfort during your appointment, let your provider know right away so they can adjust the treatment for you.

On average, you will need anywhere from 3 to 6 sessions before seeing full results. Minor concerns like minimal scarring or sun damage can be treated with fewer visits. Conversely, deep wrinkles and advanced adult acne will require a longer treatment period.

Once you complete your final session, you can enjoy smoother skin that is completely revitalized. As your skin cycles continue—which average every 4 weeks or so—you may notice that your complexion continues to be youthful, bright, and even in texture.

Before any appointment for laser skin resurfacing in Delray Beach, you will need to take steps to protect your skin. This not only makes your treatment safer, but more effective.

• For 4 weeks before your appointment, do not expose yourself to the sun or tanning beds. Use sunscreen if you must go outside.
• Do not use chemical peels on your skin for 4 weeks prior to your treatment.
• Avoid medications that may cause photosensitivity, such as minocycline and doxycycline, for 3 days before your visit.
• If you have a history of herpes or shingles, start taking antiviral medications 2 days before receiving laser skin resurfacing.

Once your treatment is over, your provider will let you know what your downtime will look like. After that, following these instructions will help you maintain your results:

• Plan for minimal activity during the first few days after treatment.
• Do not touch the treatment area while your skin is recovering.
• For 48 hours after your appointment, do not shower or otherwise expose your skin to water.
• Ice packs and Tylenol may be used to help with any discomfort during recovery. You may also take Benadryl for 48 hours after treatment to relieve any itching.

Alongside the typical payment methods of cash, card, and check, we also accept financing plans. Thanks to our partnerships with CareCredit, Allē Pay, PatientFi, and Cherry, you can choose the best plan that suits your needs. From there, covering the cost of our services is as easy as making monthly payments.
