FAQ: Laser Skin Resurfacing in Houston, TX at Face Forward Houston

  • How does laser skin resurfacing work?

    Lasers work by concentrating intense light into a beam, and each laser can come in different wavelengths which are used to target specific skin concerns that are more likely to absorb the energy of a certain wavelength. Different lasers and depths of intervention can be customized to provide a range of benefits and recovery times.

  • Can laser skin rejuvenation be combined with a facelift or other surgery?

    Yes! Surgery is the best way to correct anatomic changes to the face, but a surgical result is often incomplete without addressing the health of the skin. Laser skin resurfacing is the final stage in rejuvenation by providing the final touch or polish to further showcase a surgical result.

  • What are the side effects of laser skin resurfacing?

    Side effects vary but are relatively low. You may see redness, bumps, swelling, rashes, pigmentation changes and/or scars. It’s important to avoid direct sunlight while healing from these procedures. Come see Dr. Bender to see if a laser resurfacing procedure is right for you!
