Minimal Downtime. 

Dr. Heidari uses the latest laser technology of Erbium (YAG) in skin resurfacing. Erbium (YAG) Laser resurfacing has been shown to produce less bleeding, bruising or post-procedure discomfort than other resurfacing methods. During recovery, overall this laser resurfacing method has much less downtime for you. Full face is often treated; however, focus areas of your face can be treated in conjunction with other procedures like a facelift or eyelid surgery.

The procedure is relatively quick, and ranges in length anywhere from a few minutes to 1 1/2 hours depending on the area being covered. This procedure can be performed under general or local anesthetic.

Dr. Heidari recommends patients undergoing the laser resurfacing to be on glycolic acid peels and some bleaching agents for a few weeks following the laser treatment. This regimen provides you with a better and more even healing, with much less chance of hyper-pigmentation.

Recovery

After resurfacing, the facial skin has a look of a second-degree burn, which is a normal response to the laser treatment. Post-laser ointment and a gentle spray wash are used to care for the treated area during this sensitive period. Most of the laser-treated areas are fully healed after 6-9 days after the laser treatment. The patient might also have mild redness on their skin for an additional 1-2 weeks.
