Restore Clarity and Even Skin Tone
Laser skin resurfacing is a precision treatment that uses targeted laser energy to remove damaged outer layers of skin while stimulating collagen production beneath the surface. At Melamed Weight & Wellness, we use the Pixel fractional laser to treat fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, sun damage, and uneven texture. By addressing only a fraction of the skin at a time, Pixel encourages faster healing and skin regeneration. The result is smoother, firmer, more youthful-looking skin with minimal downtime and long-lasting benefits.
Laser Skin Resurfacing Treats:
- Fine lines and facial wrinkles
- Acne scars and surgical scars
- Enlarged pores and rough texture
- Sun damage and age spots
- Uneven skin tone and discoloration
- Dullness and loss of radiance
- Skin laxity and mild sagging
How Does Pixel Fractional Laser Skin Resurfacing Work?
Pixel fractional laser skin resurfacing uses an Er:YAG laser to deliver microscopic columns of thermal energy into the skin, creating controlled micro-injuries while leaving the surrounding tissue intact. This fractional approach stimulates the body’s healing response, promoting collagen remodeling and cellular regeneration. As new, healthy skin forms, the treated area becomes smoother, firmer, and more even in tone. Because only a portion of the skin is treated, healing is faster and downtime is reduced compared to ablative lasers.
Benefits of Pixel Fractional Laser Skin Resurfacing:
- Stimulates natural collagen production
- Targets only a fraction of the skin for faster healing
- Offers visible results with minimal downtime
- Safe for use on face, neck, chest, and hands
- Customizable treatment intensity and coverage
- Long-lasting rejuvenation with 1 to 3 sessions
Laser Skin Resurfacing FAQs
How Does Pixel Fractional Laser Resurfacing Compare to Fully Ablative Lasers?
Pixel fractional laser resurfacing offers many of the benefits of fully ablative lasers, such as improved texture and tone, as well as collagen renewal, but with less downtime and a lower risk of complications. Fully ablative lasers remove the entire top layer of skin, necessitating weeks of recovery and an increased risk of scarring. In contrast, Pixel treats only a controlled fraction of the skin’s surface, leaving surrounding tissue intact to support faster healing and recovery.
How Long Do the Results Last?
The results from Pixel fractional laser resurfacing can last for months or even years, especially when paired with daily sun protection and a proper skincare regimen. Because collagen continues to rebuild for several weeks, you may see continued improvement over time.
Is Pixel Laser Resurfacing Painful?
Discomfort is generally mild to moderate and well tolerated. You may feel a warm, prickling sensation during the treatment. A topical numbing cream is applied beforehand to enhance your comfort. Most patients describe the sensation as a light snap or flick on the skin.
What Is the Downtime After Pixel Laser Resurfacing?
Downtime is minimal compared to ablative lasers. You may experience redness, mild swelling, and skin flaking for 2 to 5 days. Many patients resume normal activities within 24 to 48 hours. Proper skincare and sun protection are essential during the recovery phase.
How Many Sessions Will I Need?
Most patients benefit from 1 to 3 Pixel laser treatments, depending on their skin goals and the severity of concerns like scarring, wrinkles, or sun damage. During your consultation, Dr. Melamed will assess your skin and develop a personalized plan to achieve optimal results.
