Contact UsWhat Is Laser Skin Resurfacing?
At Essential Aesthetics and Laser in Charlotte, NC, we are pleased to offer laser skin resurfacing for the correction of wrinkles, scars, and lines and to minimize blemishes, including pigmentation and other issues. This treatment is a nonsurgical procedure that uses pulsating beams of light to exfoliate damaged surface skin one layer at a time. It is considered highly effective for patients desiring clearer, softer, younger-looking skin. There is little recovery time needed for most laser skin resurfacing procedures. Any concerns or questions may be discussed with certified laser technician Lori Alessandrini during your consultation.
What to Expect from Laser Skin Resurfacing
Several patients of all ages suffer from pitted skin, acne scars, and unwelcome lines. To fix these imperfections, Lori performs laser skin resurfacing with the Alma Hybrid™, which is a customizable cosmetic procedure that employs non-ablative and CO2 ablative laser energy. By pairing both the CO2 and 1570nm devices in one applicator, these laser skin resurfacing procedures are beneficial in reducing wrinkles, scarring, and a bumpy complexion. This innovative technology can personalize numerous variables, such as the intensity of the laser's penetration. Treatments typically take up to 45 minutes and only need to be given 1 – 2 times to acquire the best results.

Gracie is very good at what she does and talks to you so you understand the procedure and does not use all the technical verbiage that sounds good but you have not idea what it means. Lori has built a strong foundation and she treats her employees well. Her employees seem to really love their job and I in turn love that they do to my face.
I have enjoyed all my services at Essential Aesthetics. Honestly, Lori changed my life with her IPL work on a scar of mine that was huge on my face. So thankful for everyone here!

What is the best type of resurfacing for me?
At Essential Aesthetics and Laser, our team can help you choose which resurfacing option will best meet your concerns and goals in your consultation. What treatment is best for you will depend on the health and condition of your skin, your skin concerns, and the skin depth you want your treatment to reach. The length of recovery time might also be a deciding factor when you create a treatment plan. If you are in doubt, it is better to start with a lighter treatment to see how you like your outcomes and decide if you want something stronger for your second appointment.
How can I help my skin recover after a resurfacing treatment?
Our staff will discuss ways to speed skin healing after a resurfacing treatment. The most important rule is not to peel or pick flaking skin. Doing this could cause lasting damage like scars. You should forgo all hair removal methods on the treated skin, which means no shaving, waxing, or depilatory creams. We can also recommend an ointment to help soothe treated areas.
How often should I get laser resurfacing treatments?
Based on the laser resurfacing options chosen for your procedure, you may need to wait a few weeks or even months between treatments. Deep laser treatments will provide results that last a long time but will need a more extended recovery period. You should talk to our team about how often you want to return for appointments so we can consider this when recommending a type of resurfacing in your consultation.
How much does laser skin resurfacing cost?
Laser skin resurfacing costs vary based on the treatment type you get. In your initial consultation, Dr. Alessandrini and his professional staff will understand your skin issues and wants before explaining the different types of resurfacing treatments. After this, we will help you select your resurfacing method and talk to you about costs. Essential Aesthetics and Laser regularly offers treatment specials and discounted packages, so ask about current specials during your appointment.
Should I get laser skin resurfacing, a chemical peel, or microneedling?
After listening to your concerns, Dr. Alessandrini or a member of his team will help you choose whether laser skin resurfacing, microneedling, or a chemical peel is best for you. While they all improve the surface of the skin, each has pros and cons. In your consultation, we will review each option and make a recommendation for your treatment.
How long does the procedure take?
The duration depends on the size of the treated area and the type of laser used. It can range from a few minutes for a small area to over an hour for a larger treatment.
