About Skin Resurfacing

How Skin Resurfacing Works

Skin resurfacing treatments use laser energy or other technologies to remove damaged outer layers of skin and stimulate the body's natural healing response. Ablative treatments (such as CO2 or Erbium lasers) vaporize the outer skin layers, prompting the growth of new, healthier skin. Non-ablative treatments heat the deeper layers without removing surface skin, stimulating collagen production with less downtime. Fractional technology treats a fraction of the skin at a time, leaving untreated areas to speed healing.

Who It's For

Skin resurfacing is appropriate for adults who want to address acne scars, surgical scars, fine lines and wrinkles, sun damage, uneven skin texture, or enlarged pores. The best candidates have realistic expectations and are willing to follow post-treatment care instructions. Skin type, tone, and the specific concern being addressed all factor into which resurfacing method is most appropriate. A provider consultation is essential to determine the best approach.

What to Expect

Treatment time varies from 30 minutes to over an hour depending on the type of resurfacing and the area treated. Topical numbing cream or local anesthesia is typically used. Ablative treatments involve more significant recovery, with redness and peeling lasting 1 to 2 weeks. Non-ablative and fractional treatments have shorter recovery periods, often 3 to 7 days of redness and mild swelling. Sun avoidance and diligent skincare are required during the healing period.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does laser skin resurfacing cost?
Fully ablative CO2 resurfacing costs $1,500–$5,000 per session. Fractional CO2 or Erbium runs $1,000–$3,000. Non-ablative lasers (Fraxel, Clear+Brilliant) are $300–$1,500 per session. Pricing scales with laser type, treatment area, and provider expertise.
How many laser resurfacing sessions do I need?
A single ablative CO2 session often delivers dramatic, long-lasting results but requires 7–10 days of recovery. Non-ablative lasers require 3–5 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart to achieve comparable results, with minimal downtime each time.
Is laser skin resurfacing covered by insurance?
Cosmetic laser resurfacing is not covered by insurance. Resurfacing for medical conditions (precancerous lesions, certain scars from injury or surgery) may be covered when performed by a dermatologist. FSA/HSA funds generally do not apply for cosmetic use.
How do I find the best laser resurfacing provider near me?
Ablative resurfacing requires a board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon — recovery management is critical. Non-ablative laser treatments can safely be performed at reputable med spas with licensed laser technicians. Always verify the specific device used and review before/after photos of patients with similar skin tone.
