What to expect during laser resurfacing and tightening in Carmel, IN
01.
Initial consultation
Your treatment process starts with a consultation with one of our providers. We wholeheartedly believe in building a relationship with our patients and learning about their unique concerns, desired treatments, and aesthetic goals. With the information gained from this consultation, our team can collaborate with the patient on the best approach for their needs.
02.
Injection
If this treatment in Carmel, IN is right for you, we'll begin making preparations for treatment! Your provider will start by marking the areas for treatment and applying a topical numbing cream to minimize any potential discomfort. Once we've targeted and cleaned the treatment areas, we'll use beams of light or lasers to correct the areas.
03.
Quick & easy
Resurfacing and tightening works its magic in its ability to stimulate new collagen growth and remove the outer layers of skin which contain irregularities. Over time, this stimulated collagen in the area will naturally heal and regrow as smooth, firm skin!
Your resurfacing and tightening results
To get the optimal results from your treatment, you’ll need to closely follow the aftercare instructions given to you by your provider. Ultimately, after a healing process, you should start to see noticeable improvements! Your provider might recommend a series of treatments spaced a few months apart for the best results. Full results will be seen at 3 to 6 months.
