A Deep Dive into Laser Skin Resurfacing

In the pursuit of flawless and rejuvenated skin, advancements in cosmetic procedures have paved the way for transformative laser treatments. Among these, laser skin resurfacing has gained popularity as a powerful technique to address a range of skin concerns.

Understanding Laser Skin Resurfacing

Laser skin resurfacing is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that uses concentrated beams of light to remove damaged skin cells, stimulate collagen production, and reveal a smoother, more youthful complexion. This treatment is highly versatile and capable of addressing various skin imperfections by precisely targeting specific layers of the skin.

Fractional Laser Skin Resurfacing

At the Cambridge Laser Clinic our highly trained medical professionals use fractional lasers for skin resurfacing treatments as only part of the skin is exposed, allowing uninjured skin around the area to act as a barrier and thus promoting rapid healing. We use both the Er Yag 2940nm and CO2 10,600nm ablative lasers to ensure optimal results.
