Laser skin resurfacing – what you need to know
Fractional laser skin resurfacing uses an intense beam of laser to help improve your skin complexion. Laser skin resurfacing treatment can smooth lines and wrinkles, provide skin tightening and even out your skin tone and texture.
Laser treatments often adopt an ablative approach, which uses more aggressive lasers to remove the outer layer of your skin. This allows them to heat below the skin’s surface to help stimulate new collagen growth. As a result, it improves the firmness and plumpness of your skin.
This type of laser skin resurfacing treatment is only suitable for people with a lighter skin tone. Fractional laser treatments can cause treated skin to become darker or sometimes slighter than before. These changes are more common in people with dark brown or black skin. You will require a patch test before being able to move forward with any laser treatment.
Non-ablative laser skin resurfacing
Skin resurfacing can also use a non-ablative approach or radiofrequency. This still stimulates collagen production, but the laser or light source is more gentle as it does not remove the top layer of your skin or damage surrounding skin tissue.
Because of this, recovery time is much shorter and it makes it a better option for people with darker skin. However, you should always speak to a skincare expert or dermatologist before deciding on what treatment is right for you.
Radiofrequency microneedling – a great alternative to laser skin resurfacing
If you’re looking for a less abrasive skin treatment that still delivers great results, Secret RF is a great option. It combines a microneedling treatment with radio frequency energy. This helps to target the surface and deeper layers of your skin to encourage skin cell renewal. It also triggers collagen and elastin production, which helps to give your skin more shape and firmness.
Secret RF improves skin complexion in just a 20-minute treatment session. Depending on the skin issue you are looking to treat, we recommend that you have 3-4 treatments so that you can achieve the best possible results. Your skin will continue to improve after your treatments, with the final results showing three months after your last session.
At Time Clinic, we can customise this treatment to tackle different skin imperfections. These include acne scars, stretch marks, pigmentation and it can also be used to improve your skin texture. Your first step to skin rejuvenation starts with an in-depth consultation, where we can show you how Secret RF works and what results you can achieve from it.
Why you should consider Secret RF microneedling in Essex
There are many reasons why more and more patients are looking at Secret RF microneedling, here are just a few:
- You will see the benefits of both a microneedling treatment and radiofrequency energy in one treatment.
- You can reach deeper layers of your skin, which means the treatment starts to work from within, boosting your collagen production and building healthier-looking skin.
- It is safe for all skin types and skin tones, unlike fractional laser skin resurfacing treatments or deep chemical peels, which are not always good for darker skin types.
- It goes beyond anti-ageing benefits such as skin tightening or reduces wrinkles, and can help to fade scars and stretch marks.
- Your practitioner can treat both delicate areas such as your under eye area and nose, as well as larger areas including the chest and neck.
How long will I see results for?
You will start to see results from Secret RF after your first or second treatment. How long your results last varies from person to person. To keep your results, we suggest that you come back for a maintenance treatment every 12-18 months.
