Laser Skin Resurfacing in Oklahoma City

Laser skin resurfacing is ideal for treating a wide variety of skin conditions. The laser removes outer layers of damaged skin, while stimulating collagen production deep in the tissue.

At Lowe Plastic Surgery, we offer laser skin resurfacing, in addition to a wide range of aesthetic laser treatments.

When to Undergo Laser Skin Resurfacing in Oklahoma City

Consider laser skin resurfacing at our Oklahoma City plastic surgery office if you have:

Lines and Wrinkles
Age Spots or blotches
Sun damage
Acne scars
Minor scars from injury
Some precancerous skin growths

Before we recommend laser treatment, the doctor will evaluate your skin thickness, skin type and skin texture, and the severity of your skin imperfections. We can then determine if laser skin resurfacing will help meet your goals for cosmetic improvement.

FAQ

How does it work?

A surgical laser emits bursts of radiation that cause the skin cells to vaporize. The doctor evenly applies laser energy to the targeted areas. The laser beam's intensity, movement and penetration depth can all be controlled. In most cases, only 1-2 treatments are needed to reveal healthy, clear skin.

What happens after laser skin resurfacing?

After your laser skin resurfacing, you may experience some swelling and redness as your skin begins to repair itself. During recovery, the doctor may ask you to apply an ointment to your skin and avoid sun exposure. Total recovery time varies, depending on the extent of your treatment. Common side effects include redness and swelling, which should subside within a few days.

What are the alternatives to laser skin resurfacing?

During your appointment, we may recommend alternatives like chemical peels, dermabrasion or microdermabrasion treatments. All of these can help remove the damaged surface skin cells, giving your skin a more refined and youthful appearance.

Who performs laser skin resurfacing?

We have dermatologists and plastic surgeons (all board certified) who can handle your laser treatment. No matter who performs your treatment, know that all physicians at our Oklahoma City practice share a commitment to clinical excellence, cutting-edge care, and lasting patient partnerships.
