How it works
ResurFX Laser Skin Resurfacing
ResurFX is a non-ablative laser, which means it stimulates the skin to develop collagen without harming or ablating your skin. As collagen increases, the skin looks tighter and more even.
ResurFX is also a fractional laser, which means the laser is delivered to the skin in tiny dots, only a fraction of the skin. The ResurFX requires only one pass over the skin to produce effective results, which reduces treatment time. We first apply a numbing cream to the area, and during the procedure, use a cool fan to keep you comfortable.
FAQs
How long does ResurFX last?
After you finish the recommended number of treatments, your results can last up to two years. You'll have longer-lasting results if you take good care of your skin by avoiding sun exposure, using a good sunscreen, and sticking to a good skincare regimen at home.
What is ResurFX?
Lumenis® ResurFX IPL technology removes unwanted pigmentation and blood vessels from the skin, while stimulating the production of new collagen and elastic fibers in the deeper layers of the skin. Stimulating new collagen production is the key to more radiant, youthful-looking skin.
Does ResurFX laser hurt?
ResurFX is a fast and easy treatment. A typical facial treatment takes less than 30 minutes to complete. Patients receive topical numbing prior to treatment, and forced air cooling is used during treatment, making ResurFX very easy to tolerate.
