YOUR SKIN LASER TREATMENT OPTIONS
Cosmetic laser treatments use intense pulsed light to treat various layers of tissue beneath the skin. One of our surgeons will adjust the light penetration depth depending on your skin or hair’s color, condition, and texture. Most noteworthy is that the versatile Sciton laser system has many cosmetic applications, including:
- Nonsurgical Skin Rejuvenation: Laser skin treatments effectively revitalize your complexion.
- Photorejuvenation: This treatment addresses age spots, rosacea, hyperpigmentation, freckles, stretch marks, and fine wrinkles.
- Photofacials and Fractional Skin Resurfacing: These procedures firm and tighten the skin on both the face and body.
- Microlaser Peels: These gentle peels remove aged and sun-damaged skin with minimal downtime.
- Hair Removal Treatments: These reduce hair in the treatment area, with any remaining hair typically finer and lighter. Adjustable light beams maximize effectiveness for your specific hair color and texture.
- Laser Vein Therapies: These effectively erase visible veins such as spider veins, varicose veins, and broken capillaries.
Now is the time to take charge of your life and make the changes you have dreamed of. Schedule your private consultation with Dr. Schuster or Dr. Kovacs, and he will personally answer your questions.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Skin Laser Treatments?
Most individuals with mild to moderate skin concerns, including wrinkles, acne scars, and pigmentation issues, are good candidates. People with lighter skin tones tend to respond better to laser resurfacing, but newer technologies are also making treatments safer for darker skin types.
However, those with active skin infections or severe acne may need to delay treatment. It’s always best to schedule a consultation to determine if skin laser therapy suits your needs.
What to Expect During the Treatment
The laser procedure is performed on an outpatient basis, meaning you can go home the same day. Depending on the targeted area, treatments can last from 30 minutes to an hour. Before the session begins, your provider may apply a topical anesthetic to minimize discomfort.
During the treatment, the laser targets specific layers of the skin, removing damaged cells while stimulating collagen. Some treatments feel warm or prickly, but they are well-tolerated. For more intensive laser resurfacing, mild sedation may be recommended for added comfort.
What Results to Expect After Skin Laser Treatments?
After skin laser treatments, it’s normal to experience some redness and swelling, which subsides in five to seven days. As the skin heals, you’ll notice smoother texture, fewer fine lines, and reduced pigmentation. Full results often develop over the following weeks as collagen production increases.
Patients love how laser skin rejuvenation delivers long-lasting improvements without the need for invasive procedures. To maintain results, following a good skincare routine, including sunscreen, is important to protect the skin from UV exposure.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to recover from laser resurfacing?
Recovery times vary depending on the type of treatment. For lighter resurfacing, redness will fade in one to three days. Deeper treatments may take one to two weeks to heal fully, but makeup can usually be applied after five days to cover any redness.
Are laser treatments painful?
Most patients report only mild discomfort, often described as a warming or tingling sensation. Topical anesthetics are used to make the experience more comfortable. For more intensive procedures, your provider may offer sedation to enhance comfort.
Can laser treatments help with acne scars?
Yes, laser skin rejuvenation is highly effective for improving the appearance of acne scars. Treatments work by resurfacing the top layer of the skin and stimulating collagen to fill in deeper scars over time.
How many laser sessions will I need?
The number of sessions depends on your skin type and treatment goals. Some patients achieve noticeable results with just one session, while others may need three to five treatments spaced a month apart. Your provider will recommend a plan personalized to your skin.
Is there downtime after skin laser therapy?
While downtime varies, most treatments are minimally invasive and allow you to resume normal activities within a day or two. However, deeper resurfacing may require a short recovery period, so it's best to plan accordingly.
