Skin rejuvenation and resurfacing in Houston begins with a comprehensive skin evaluation to determine the most effective method (e.g., CO2 laser, Fraxel, chemical peel, microneedling). The goal is to resurface the skin and stimulate collagen. Topical numbing is often used for lighter treatments (like Clear + Brilliant or light peels), while local anesthesia or sedation may be applied for deeper ablative resurfacing (like full CO2). Sessions last between 30 minutes and two hours, depending on the procedure.Recovery is typically minimal (1–3 days of redness/flaking) for lighter treatments and significant (7–14 days of downtime) for deeper resurfacing. Patients may experience redness, flaking, or swelling, which gradually improves. Providers often recommend strict sun protection and medical-grade skincare to maintain results. Visible improvements appear within the first week, with collagen remodeling continuing over two to six months.
