How Ablative Laser Resurfacing Works
During ablative laser treatment in Strathfield, short pulses of Er:YAG energy precisely vaporise thin layers of skin. Settings can range from lighter resurfacing to deeper treatment depending on the concern and the planned recovery period.
The face is commonly treated, including areas around the mouth, cheeks and forehead. Selected scars and areas of sun-damaged skin on the neck or décolletage may also be assessed. Eye protection and cooling measures are used as appropriate.
Recovery and Treatment Planning in Strathfield
Redness, swelling, warmth, sensitivity, peeling or crusting are expected after ablative laser resurfacing. Healing time varies with treatment depth, and strict aftercare and sun protection are important while new skin develops.
Risks can include prolonged redness, infection, pigment change, acne flare, milia and scarring. People with certain medical conditions, active infection or a tendency to abnormal scarring may not be suitable. Results vary and more than one treatment may be recommended.
Your consultation should cover medications, previous procedures, skin history and the amount of downtime you can accommodate.
