What Is the Treatment Experience?

Our excellent results are the result of our precision laser skin resurfacing treatments in Manhattan at Alemi Facial Plastic Surgery. During your laser skin resurfacing procedure, a focused beam of light is directed at the targeted areas of your skin. This process addresses the damaged outer layer of skin while stimulating collagen production in the deeper layers. You may experience a warm sensation during the treatment. The length of the treatment varies based on the size of the area to be treated.

Unique Laser Options at Alemi Facial Plastic Surgery

At Alemi Facial Plastic Surgery, we provide four distinct laser options, each with unique benefits and applications:

Erbium Laser

The Erbium laser targets the upper layers of the skin, making it an excellent choice for more superficial imperfections. This laser is particularly effective for fine lines, mild to moderate sun damage, and pigmentation issues, providing a gentler option with less downtime compared to CO2 lasers.

Clear & Brilliant

The Clear and Brilliant laser treatment is designed to improve skin tone, texture, and overall appearance. This advanced laser technology delivers gentle energy to the skin, promoting collagen production and encouraging cellular turnover. Ideal for addressing early signs of aging, sun damage, and enlarged pores, the treatment requires minimal downtime and can be tailored to individual skin types and concerns. Patients often experience a refreshed, youthful glow with subtle, natural-looking results.

Nd:YAG Laser Treatments

The Nd:YAG laser penetrates deeper into the skin, making it suitable for various treatments, including skin tightening, inducing collagen production, and treating vascular lesions (visible blood vessels). In the name Nd:YAG, YAG (Yttrium Aluminum Garnet) is a type of manufactured crystal. Nd (Neodymium-doped) means the crystal was treated with a silvery metallic element to make it ultra-bright and focused. Because the Nd:YAG laser works under the skin’s surface, stimulating change from within, it is a safe option for patients with darker skin tones.

Fractional CO2 Laser

Fractional CO2 laser is considered the gold standard for skin resurfacing. Our laser system has some of the most advanced fractionated technology to maximize the result while minimizing the downtime. The fractional approach targets small areas of the skin while leaving surrounding tissue untouched, promoting faster healing. The Fractional CO2 laser encourages collagen remodeling, enhances skin texture and tone, and is ideal for treating deep wrinkles, severe sun damage, and scars.

Benefits of Laser Skin Resurfacing

Some of the benefits you can look forward to with laser skin resurfacing in Manhattan include the following:

  • Improved skin texture and tone: Laser resurfacing effectively diminishes the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and uneven skin tone, revealing smoother, younger-looking skin.
  • Stimulated collagen production: The heat generated during the procedure stimulates collagen production, promoting long-term skin rejuvenation and improving elasticity.
  • Reduced hyperpigmentation and visible veins: Some penetrating laser treatments can reduce the appearance of sunspots and spider veins on the face.

What Is the Recovery?

Recovery time varies depending on the laser type used. After Fractional CO2 laser treatment, you may experience redness and swelling for several days. Erbium laser procedures generally involve minimal downtime, with some redness and peeling. Nd:YAG laser treatments typically have minimal recovery time, allowing you to return to your daily activities soon after treatment. Our team will provide detailed aftercare instructions to optimize your healing process and results.
