Laser Resurfacing

Sun damage, the natural aging process, and other factors can take a toll on your skin.

Laser resurfacing using the Contour Tunable Resurfacing Laser (TRL) is safe for all skin tones and treats common concerns like wrinkles and acne scars.

SynergyMD Cosmetic Dermatology in Tampa, FL, offers this effective treatment to rejuvenate your appearance.

Treat Common Concerns With Laser Resurfacing

Laser skin resurfacing has made it possible for men and women to address cosmetic concerns on the face, neck, and body without invasive surgery and still enjoy noticeable results. Laser skin resurfacing can address concerns like:

  • Scars
  • Moles
  • Wrinkles
  • Fine lines
  • Acne scars
  • Sun damage
  • Poor texture
  • Enlarged pores

Contour TRL is a great choice for patients who desire a nonsurgical, scarless facelift or other minimally invasive rejuvenation.

We Use Contour TRL at Our Tampa, FL, Office

Our innovative Tampa, FL, dermatology office uses Contour TRL™ by Sciton. This ablative laser precisely removes outer layers of skin as measured by Dr. Milan Lombardi and heats the dermis to treat common cosmetic concerns. While non-ablative lasers are gentler on the skin, they're not as effective as ablative lasers.

Contour TRL exfoliates surface layers of skin to reveal the new skin underneath, and at the same time, stimulates the production of collagen, elastin, and new skin cells in the lower layers of skin. The result is smoother, plumper, healthier-looking skin.

TRL is completely customizable and safe for patients of all ages and skin tones. However, pregnant patients should not receive laser resurfacing treatments.

I went to Lombardi Institute of Dermatology to get laser treatment around my eyes and for the lines around my mouth. The results are better than expected and last a very long time. The personal care that they gave me was above and beyond.

Prepare Skin

To prepare for your laser treatment, clean your skin and show up to your appointment without makeup. A member of our team will apply a topical or local anesthetic to keep you comfortable.

Laser Resurfacing

After choosing the settings that best address your concerns, our clinician will pass a handheld laser over the skin on the target area. You may experience a slight warming sensation as the lower layers of skin absorb thermal energy and the outer layers of skin are resurfaced.

Recovery

Once your appointment is complete, you're free to leave. This treatment generally requires about one to two weeks of downtime for moderate resurfacing, so many patients plan to take some time off from work. During this period, you may experience some redness, swelling, and peeling.

Repeat

While a difference in your skin will soon become apparent after just one laser treatment, our team may recommend a series of one to three treatments to give you optimal results. We will discuss the recommended number of treatments with you after a thorough analysis of your skin and a discussion of your expectations.

Does Treatment Hurt?

Our team applies a topical numbing cream or local numbing agent before treatment to make it as comfortable and pain-free as possible. While you may experience some redness and swelling, and your skin may feel warm immediately after treatment, these side effects should subside in a few days.

The Results of the Tunable Resurfacing Laser

It will only take a few weeks before the increase in collagen production will let you see brighter, firmer skin and the gradual smoothing of lines and wrinkles. Final results typically become apparent after a few months. Laser skin resurfacing enhances the body’s natural healing abilities, so you'll notice even more improvement over time and with subsequent laser treatments.

Maintain Your Results

Follow a Skin Care Routine

You will be given instructions on how to keep your treatment site clean and protected in the weeks following your procedure. In the long term, a skin care routine that involves applying moisturizer twice a day, sunscreen every morning, and retinol a few times a week at night will go a long way in keeping your skin plump and free of wrinkles. Find a routine that works for you and stick to it. Our team can make skin care recommendations.

Wear Sun Protection

Avoid sun exposure for two months after your treatment. Sun damage accumulates over time, contributing to the formation of wrinkles, dark spots, and more. Be sure to minimize sun exposure by wearing sunglasses, protective clothing, and sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher.

Receive Yearly Treatment

After your initial treatment sessions, touch-up treatments with TRL or another laser may be recommended once a year to keep your cosmetic concerns to a minimum. Our Tampa dermatology office will be here when you're ready for your yearly appointment.

While Dr. Lombardi primarily uses laser resurfacing to treat signs of aging like fine lines and wrinkles, the laser can address other cosmetic concerns. Dr. Lombardi reduced the appearance of this patient's mole.
