Your Guide to Post-Laser Skin Resurfacing Care
Recovery ultimately depends on the type and depth of the laser treatment performed.
Non-ablative treatments typically involve minimal downtime, with mild redness or swelling that should resolve within a few days. More intensive resurfacing treatments may require several days of healing, during which the skin may feel warm, dry, or rough as new skin forms.
Our patients are advised to keep their skin moisturized, avoid sun exposure, and follow all post-treatment care instructions during this time.
The cost of laser skin resurfacing in La Mesa and San Diego can vary depending on the type of laser used, the size of the treatment area, and the number of recommended sessions.
During your consultation, your personalized treatment plan and cost estimate will be provided.
