How Does Laser Skin Resurfacing Work?

Ablative skin resurfacing works by removing the outer layers of skin. This process gets rid of sun-damaged, hyperpigmented, and other skin-dulling cells. The laser energy that resurfaces the skin heats the deeper layers of the dermis. The heat triggers these cells to start producing more collagen, firming and lifting the skin and restoring a more youthful appearance. The new cells give your skin a smoother, brighter surface. 

How Much Does Laser Skin Resurfacing Cost?

The cost of laser skin resurfacing depends on your location, your provider, and the type of laser used. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, the average cost of ablative skin resurfacing is $2,509. This price may not include all fees and expenses, so we will discuss your specific treatment pricing during your consultation.
