No matter how hard you try to take care of your skin, blemishes, scars, sagging, and signs of aging are a reality of life. Luckily, they don't have to be a lasting feature, thanks to laser skin resurfacing at Essential Aesthetics and Laser in Charlotte, NC. Using the advanced Hybrid® system from Alma, certified laser technician Lori Alessandrini can minimize imperfections and unveil a brighter, healthier complexion. Whether you are dealing with fine lines and wrinkles, acne scarring, rough patches, or more, we invite you to discover how laser skin resurfacing could be your ticket to skin rejuvenation.

How exactly does laser skin resurfacing work?

Laser skin resurfacing is a state-of-the-art skin rejuvenation procedure that uses targeted beams of light to remove damaged skin layer by layer. The process stimulates the body's natural healing process, prompting the growth of new, healthy skin cells. This not only improves the surface appearance but also boosts underlying collagen production, leading to firmer, more youthful skin over time. At Essential Aesthetics and Laser, we take this innovation a step further with the Alma Hybrid laser system, which combines different laser technologies to customize treatments for each individual's skin type and concerns.

Which skin issues can laser skin resurfacing address?

From fine lines and wrinkles to acne scars and uneven skin tone, laser skin resurfacing can tackle a wide array of skin imperfections. Here are some of the most common issues we address using the Alma Hybrid:

  • Fine lines and wrinkles: Smoothes out early signs of aging for a more youthful appearance.
  • Acne scars: Reduces the visibility of scars, leaving skin clearer and smoother.
  • Uneven skin tone: Corrects discoloration for a more even and radiant complexion.
  • Sagging skin: Enhances skin firmness and elasticity.
  • Age spots: Lightens age-related hyperpigmentation.
  • Rough patches: Promotes a smoother and more uniform skin texture.

How can you customize my laser skin resurfacing treatment?

Each person's skin tells a unique story, which is why Lori leverages the versatility of the Alma Hybrid laser system to tailor treatments to help meet specific needs. This system allows for the adjustment of intensity, depth, and treatment area, ensuring that each session is as effective as possible for the client's particular skin issues. Whether you need a gentle refresh to tackle minor imperfections or a more intensive treatment for deeper scars or wrinkles, Lori can customize your laser skin resurfacing plan for optimal results.

How long will my results last after my laser skin treatment?

The answer to this question will depend on your skin health, the type of treatment, and your daily habits. Generally, clients can expect to enjoy a visible improvement in their skin for up to 3 – 5 years following their laser skin treatment. To maintain these results, Lori recommends a skin care routine that includes sun protection and possibly follow-up treatments, depending on your skin's response and cosmetic goals.
