Laser resurfacing is one of the most effective ways to dramatically improve skin texture, tone, and clarity without surgery. At Scott Sanders Dermatology in New City, NY, Dr. Scott Sanders, Dr. Elena Maydan, and Dr. Shilesh Iyer offer laser treatments to refresh your skin, target visible signs of aging, and help you feel more confident in your appearance.
What Laser Resurfacing Can Treat
Laser resurfacing works by removing layers of damaged skin, encouraging your body to regenerate healthy tissue and stimulate new collagen production. It’s a highly customizable treatment that can reduce:
Fine lines and wrinkles
Acne scars and surgical scars
Sun damage and age spots
Uneven pigmentation
Rough texture or dull skin tone
Large pores
Depending on your goals and skin type, we may recommend either an ablative or non-ablative laser approach. Ablative lasers target the skin’s surface more aggressively for deeper rejuvenation, while non-ablative lasers work below the surface with shorter recovery time.
Matched to Your Skin and Goals
At our New City office, laser resurfacing is never one-size-fits-all. Dr. Sanders, Dr. Maydan, and Dr. Iyer take the time to assess your skin, understand what you’re trying to achieve, and explain your options clearly. Whether you're hoping for dramatic improvement or a subtle refresh, we’ll match you with the right type of laser and treatment plan.
Our team also considers skin tone, existing skin conditions, and your ability to commit to recovery time. Not everyone is a candidate for the same approach, and careful selection helps minimize risks and optimize results.
What to Expect from Treatment and Recovery
Laser resurfacing is typically done in-office with numbing cream or local anesthesia. Treatment length depends on the area being treated, but most sessions take under an hour. Afterward, you can expect redness, swelling, and skin peeling for several days to a week, depending on the intensity of the laser used.
We’ll give you detailed post-care instructions to support healing and protect your results. Most Scott Sanders Dermatology patients see noticeable improvements within a few weeks, with continued skin regeneration over the next few months.
Results That Build Over Time
Laser resurfacing doesn’t just offer a temporary glow. It can lead to lasting changes in skin texture and firmness. Many patients report that their skin feels smoother, looks more even, and has a healthier, rejuvenated appearance after just one treatment. In some cases, a series of treatments may be recommended for more significant concerns like acne scarring or deep wrinkles.
