laser skin resurfacing is a non-invasive treatment that can effectively and safely treat a range of common skin complaints such as acne scars, stretch marks, fine lines and wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation using non-ablative fractional lasers. The non-ablative fractional lasers are able to treat a specific area – or fraction – of the skin without destroying or ablating the underlying skin cells.
The cost of laser skin resurfacing at Clarkston Dermatology depends on the most appropriate type of laser for your skin concerns and the number of sessions you need to achieve the results you are looking for. We strive to make treatment as affordable as possible with financing offered through CareCredit®. To find out your individual cost, please contact us to schedule a free consultation with our expert guides.There are two types of lasers that are most commonly used for laser skin resurfacing treatments.

While both the CO2 fractional laser and the IPL® photofacial ultimately vaporize damaged surface level skin cells, each procedure is slightly different.Depending on the type of laser skin resurfacing laser used, recovery times can differ. With the CO2 laser, recovery can take as long as three weeks. With the IPL® photofacial, however, recovery only takes a few hours with little more than mild redness and tenderness. With CO2 fractional laser resurfacing, the skin may be quite red and scab over during this time, and while you are free to go about your daily life, you’ll want to be careful to avoid any risk of infection.
