Laser Energy and Skin Repair

What is Laser Skin Resurfacing?

Laser resurfacing is a cosmetic procedure that uses concentrated pulsating beams of laser energy to carefully remove the outer layer of damaged skin cells while stimulating the underlying skin to produce new collagen. This process helps the treated skin heal smoother, firmer, and clearer.

Different types of lasers are used depending on your needs:

  • Ablative lasers (like CO2 or erbium lasers) remove the thin outer layer of skin and heat the surrounding skin to stimulate new skin and collagen production.
  • Non-ablative lasers (such as ResurFX, BBL, and MOXI) deliver energy beneath the skin’s surface to remodel collagen without removing the top layer.
  • Fractional lasers treat tiny “fractions” of the skin with minimal heat damage to encourage quicker healing.

By choosing the proper laser procedure (or laser peel), we can treat concerns ranging from fine lines to moderately deep lines and even stubborn skin scars.

The Options We Offer

Types of Laser Skin Resurfacing at Blume

At Blume Skin and Body, we offer multiple laser procedures to achieve your desired results:

Luminous Smooth Glow:

A multi-step laser treatment that combines intense pulsed light (IPL) and non-ablative lasers for all-over brightness and hydration.

M22 ResurFX:

A fractional laser that targets acne scars, fine wrinkles, and irregular skin texture by stimulating new collagen with minimal downtime.

Duo/Trio Treatments

Combination approaches using multiple types of laser technologies in one session to target pigmentation, texture, and sagging skin simultaneously.

BBL/MOXI

Combines broadband light with a gentle fractionated laser to treat sun-damaged skin, brown spots, and early facial wrinkles, while promoting long-term collagen production.

Comfort, Care, and Collagen in Action

What is a Laser Skin Resurfacing Treatment Like?

Your session begins with cleansing and the application of a topical numbing cream for comfort. A handheld device then delivers laser beams or continuous light beams to the treatment area, either on the skin’s surface or into the deeper layers, depending on the selected technology.

Most patients describe the sensation as warm or prickling, and the minimal discomfort is temporary. Laser vaporization of damaged cells begins the process of regeneration, and as the skin heals, healthy new skin takes its place.

The length of treatment varies by treated area and intensity of the procedure, lasting from 30 minutes to over an hour.

A Versatile Answer to Sun Damage and Aging

What Skin Concerns Does Laser Resurfacing Treat?

Laser resurfacing can be used to treat a wide variety of skin conditions, including:

  • Fine lines and deep wrinkles (especially around the eyes and mouth)
  • Acne scars and other skin scars
  • Sun damage, sun spots, and brown skin discoloration
  • Facial wrinkles and sagging skin
  • Active acne (with select laser systems)
  • Enlarged oil glands on the nose
  • Irregular or non responsive skin after other treatments

Safe and Personalized

Am I a Candidate for Laser Skin Resurfacing?

You may be an ideal candidate if you are in good health, have realistic expectations, and want to address skin aging, acne scars, sun exposure damage, or skin irregularities.

However, this procedure may not be recommended if you have very dark skin, are prone to cold sores, have severe skin disease, a history of poor wound healing or hypertrophic scarring, or active acne in the treatment area.

A review of your medical history with our providers will help determine the safest and most effective approach.

Laser Skin Resurfacing Recovery and Results

Recovery

Recovery depends on the type of laser used:

  • Non-ablative lasers (MOXI, ResurFX, Smooth Glow): Slight redness and swelling for a few hours to 1–2 days.
  • Ablative lasers (CO2, Erbium laser resurfacing, YAG laser): More intensive healing with redness, crusting, and peeling as the skin heals over several days to weeks.

During the healing phase, it’s critical to use sun protection factor (SPF 30 or higher) and avoid direct sun exposure. Proper aftercare helps prevent bacterial infections and ensures optimal results.

Results

When will I see results? Many patients see brighter, clearer skin after a single treatment, while improvement continues over several weeks as collagen production builds.

How many treatments will I need? While just one treatment can make a visible difference, most patients achieve their desired results with a series of sessions.

How long do results last? Results can last for years with proper skincare, sun avoidance, and maintenance treatments.
