WHAT IS SKIN RESURFACING?

---

Wrinkles, scars, dark spots and other imperfections appear on the skin due to age, heredity, health issues or trauma. Skin resurfacing and rejuvenation treatments are non-surgical methods used to remove damaged layers of skin and soften the appearance of wrinkles, spots and scars.

Plastic surgery doctors use a variety of mechanical and chemical facial rejuvenation treatments. These methods can be used independently or combined with traditional cosmetic surgery such as facelifts for optimal results. The type of treatment selected depends on many factors, including age, skin type, skin color, and damaged tissue location. Chemical face peels may be covered by insurance if they are performed for the treatment of certain conditions.
