Laser Resurfacing in Berkeley & Davis, CA

Enhance the Beauty of Your Skin With Laser Resurfacing

If you aren’t happy with your skin’s texture, appearance, or elasticity, you should consider laser skin resurfacing at Kintsu MedSpa & Wellness in Berkeley and Davis, CA. Laser resurfacing is a simple, minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that can reduce fine lines, wrinkles, and scars and improve skin tone and texture. The procedure uses low-level laser light to penetrate underneath the top layers of your skin, stimulate the body’s natural healing processes, and promote collagen growth. Our goal is to work closely with you to understand your needs and expectations and design a cosmetic treatment plan that addresses areas of concern in your skin, face, and hair so that you can meet your beauty goals.

What Is Laser Skin Resurfacing?

Laser skin resurfacing is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that uses laser light to tighten skin, reduce or eliminate scars and wrinkles, and even out skin tone and texture. During the procedure, your aesthetic nurse will use a small, handheld device to direct short, concentrated bursts of laser light at the treatment areas. This removes skin very strategically and precisely, layer by layer, so that newer, healthier skin is revealed beneath. The laser light also stimulates the healing and regrowth of collagen.

Who Should Consider Laser Skin Resurfacing?

You should consider laser resurfacing if you have concerns with your skin tone, texture, or appearance and want a minimally invasive cosmetic solution. Laser resurfacing is a great alternative to more invasive cosmetic procedures and requires little downtime or recovery time. We might recommend laser resurfacing to treat:

  • Acne scars
  • Age spots
  • Birthmarks
  • Enlarged pores or oil glands
  • Fine lines or wrinkles
  • Liver spots
  • Scars
  • Sun-damaged skin
  • Texture issues like bumpy skin
  • Uneven skin tone or pigmentation
  • Warts

What are the Benefits of Laser Skin Resurfacing?

Laser skin resurfacing is safe, minimally invasive, and has a shorter recovery time than more invasive cosmetic procedures. If you are self-conscious about specific areas of your face or skin, undergoing laser resurfacing can minimize, reduce, or eliminate areas of concern. Laser resurfacing for acne scars is one of the most effective treatment options. The major benefits of laser resurfacing are:

  • Enhanced confidence and self-esteem.
  • Significant results that last.
  • Improved appearance, texture, and tone of your skin.
  • Enhance skin firmness.
  • Permanently removes blemishes and minor scarring.
  • Reveals a smooth, youthful layer of healthy new skin.
  • Reduces fine lines and wrinkles.
  • Enhances collagen production.

What to Expect from Laser Resurfacing Before and After

Before We Begin – We will use a local anesthetic to numb the treatment areas or general anesthesia if your entire face is being treated. We will carefully clean your entire face or treatment area.

During the Procedure – Each treatment area can take between 30 and 45 minutes from start to finish, and an entire face can take one to two hours. We will use a small, handheld device to apply targeted laser light to the treatment areas. You will not feel any pain or discomfort due to the anesthetic or anesthesia.

After the Procedure – Post-treatment care is crucial for optimal results. Immediately after the procedure, you may experience some swelling, especially under the eyes, which may last 2-4 days. Use cold compresses or ice packs to alleviate swelling and consider sleeping upright the first night. Avoid salt, spicy, and acidic foods during swelling. The treated area may feel warm for 12-24 hours, and cold compresses can offer comfort. Days 2-4 may reveal tiny dark spots and a bronzed appearance, indicating the healing process. Expect dry, sandpaper-textured skin that will peel. Cleanse the skin twice daily, apply sunscreen, and be prepared for a rosy glow post-peeling. Itching is normal but resist scratching to avoid complications. Consult your provider at Kintsu MedSpa for guidance.
