ResurFX™ at Skin Solutions
Skin resurfacing is essential for healthier, younger-looking skin, especially if you’re looking for a treatment that effectively addresses the early signs of aging.
The ResurFX™ fractional laser is a state-of-the-art, non-ablative, skin resurfacing technology. This optimally tailored treatment helps moderate skin issues like fine lines and wrinkles; textural concerns; pore refinement; and light discoloration. This treatment also specifically stimulates new collagen production, essential for more radiant and youthful-looking skin.
RESURFX™ IS A POPULAR TREATMENT FOR IMPROVING THE APPEaRANCE OF FINE LINES AND WRINKLES, INCLUDING AROUND THE EYES AND MOUTH.
With its unique fractional rejuvenation technology, ResurFX™ has many powerful benefits:
- Softens fine lines and wrinkles
- Increases collagen production
- Refines pores
- Evens skin tone
- Improves acne scarring
HOW DOES RESURFX™ WORK?
ResurFX™ laser uses fractional technology to deliver energy to the deeper layers of the skin. This stimulates the production of collagen and elastic fibers. The advanced scanner delivers these lasers beams in a precise manner with integrated continuous contact cooling to ensure maximum patient comfort.
RESURFX™ IS DUALLY A PREVENTIVE AND CORRECTIVE LASER TREATMENT FOR MANY MODERATE SKIN CONCERNS.
HOW LONG DOES EACH RESURFX™ TREATMENT TAKE?
Each ResurFX™ treatment takes about 90 minutes, which includes 30 minutes of pre-treatment with a topical numbing cream.
CAN RESURFX™ BE PERFORMED YEAR-ROUND?
Yes. However, it’s not ideal to treat tanned skin with this treatment. The increased pigment can compete with the laser’s typical targets and may decrease the effectiveness of ResurFX™. Please note that we recommend using sunscreen at least twice daily to protect your skin from sun exposure for several months after treatment.
WHAT HAPPENS AFTER RESURFX™ TREATMENT?
Most patients experience moderate downtime post ResurFX™. Immediately after the treatment, you will experience redness, skin warmth, and swelling. Over the next few days, you will notice increased redness, temporary skin bronzing, and a “sandpaper” skin texture. These are signs of repair as the old epidermal skin is replaced by healthy new tissue.

HOW MANY RESURFX™ TREATMENTS ARE NEEDED?
To achieve optimal results, ResurFX™ treatments should be done in a series of 3-6, especially since deep collagen regeneration is stimulated over a sequence of treatments.
HOW LONG WILL RESURFX™ RESULTS LAST?
Results of a ResurFX™ treatment are both immediate and progressive. ResurFX™ results are ongoing with maintenance treatments every 8 to 12 months. With regular maintenance and proper skincare, results may be maximized.
WHO SHOULD CONSIDER RESURFX™ TREATMENT?
ResurFX™ is typically for candidates ages 30+, however it may be appropriate for candidates that have textural skin concerns. Please call our office to determine if this treatment is appropriate for your skin type and concerns.
