What Is Skin Resurfacing?

How a skin resurfacing treatment from your dermatologists in Fairfax, VA, and Chevy Chase, MD, can help you look younger

The texture of your skin plays an important role in your appearance. You want your skin to be smooth, unlined, and young looking. But what if your skin is rough, uneven, and makes you look older than you are? If this sounds like you, it's time to consider skin resurfacing from your dermatologist.

Dr. Shabnam Shahabadi and Dr. Reza Mirali at Plastic Surgery and Dermatology Associates provide a wide range of medical and cosmetic dermatology services, including skin resurfacing to help you look younger. They have two convenient office locations in Fairfax, VA, and Chevy Chase, MD.

There are many factors which can affect the texture of your skin, including:

  • Aging and dehydration
  • Sun damage and age spots
  • Acne and acne scarring
  • Skin rashes and skin disorders

Minor skin resurfacing can be accomplished using:

  • Exfoliating
  • Chemical peels
  • Microdermabrasion

These are effective ways to slough off the top layer of dead skin, but for more extensive, truly remarkable skin resurfacing, laser treatment is the go-to solution.

At Plastic Surgery and Dermatology Associates, your dermatologist uses the highly effective Cortex CO2 system. The application of heat and light work together to remove one or more layers of skin, revealing dewy, younger skin underneath.

After treatment, as your tissue heals, collagen production is stimulated. Collagen is a cornerstone of young, beautiful skin. After laser treatment, your skin will appear tighter, firmer, and more even toned.
