Frequently Asked Questions

What areas of my body can be treated?

The most common areas are the face and neck. Many other areas such as the chest and hands can also be treated. Sometimes Dr. Tresley will combine laser resurfacing treatments with Upper and Lower Blepharoplasty to further improve results.

What will happen during the procedure?

Your skin will be cleaned in the treatment area and your eyes will be protected with safety shields. Dr. Tresley will position the laser over the skin while a computer-guided scanner moves the laser beam in the designated treatment area. Depending on the size of the area being treated, the procedure usually lasts 15 to 30 minutes.

Will it be uncomfortable?

The comfort level of laser resurfacing treatments varies from patient to patient and depends largely on the depth of treatment. For shallow treatments, the procedure is well tolerated with topical anesthetic. For deeper treatments Dr. Tresley may administer a local anesthetic.

What should I expect immediately after the treatment?

Immediately following the treatment, you may experience redness and a sensation resembling sunburn. Swelling also may occur in the treated areas. Dr. Tresley will advise you on specific after-treatment care recommendations, which may include application of an ointment to keep the skin moist.

How long will it take to recover?

Complete healing will depend largely on the depth of your treatment. Healing times for shallow treatments are typically 2-4 days before patients resume normal activities. For deeper treatments, you should discuss realistic expectations with Dr. Tresley.

What aftercare do I need?

Daniel S. Tresley, MD Skincare products have been specifically made to aid in the healing process. Your skin will be sensitive to ultra-violet light after the procedure, so you must avoid direct sun exposure until fully healed. We recommend that you always use SPF 50 to avoid sun damage and premature aging of your skin.

When should I expect results?

Depending on your treatment, the top layer of your skin will re-grow and can be covered with make-up in about one week, at which time you will see noticeable improvements in your skin’s texture, tone, and wrinkle appearance. Deeper laser treatments also stimulate the growth of new collagen over the next 4-6 months. During this time, the skin may also show increasing improvements in tightness and resilience.
