How Does Skin Resurfacing Work?

Skin Resurfacing removes the outer layers of the skin's surface to reveal a fresher-looking face. The top layer of skin is constantly exposed and battered by environmental elements including free radicals, wind and sun. Although the skin surface does continually renew itself, various factors hinder cellular regeneration and epidermal growth. Skin resurfacing creates tiny ablative zones, targeting the epidermis and upper dermis.The treatment then triggers the body’s natural healing process, stimulating the growth of new, healthy skin tissue. The healing process stimulates collage production, tightens the skin and improves the skin texture. The newly revealed skin will be smooth, fresh and youthful in appearance.
