Get to Know Skin Resurfacing Laser

Skin resurfacing laser treatments are designed for more significant texture concerns such as acne scarring, deeper lines and advanced sun damage. At Ocean Cosmetics in Perth, these treatments are doctor led and carefully planned to balance improvement with safety and downtime.

We begin with a detailed assessment of your skin, history and lifestyle. Together we discuss your main concerns, whether that is scarring, coarse texture, wrinkles or a combination. Resurfacing may be staged, combining gentler sessions with targeted deeper treatments.

Because these treatments are more intensive, we place strong emphasis on preparation, aftercare and long term skin health. Resurfacing is usually part of a broader plan that may include skincare, injectables and other devices.

Benefits & Target Areas

Helps soften the look of pitted or uneven scars.

Can improve etched lines around the mouth, cheeks and eyes.

Smooths thickened or sun damaged skin.

Targets a mix of texture, pigment and fine lines in suitable skin types.

In selected cases, can help with crinkling and textural changes beyond the face.

Ideal for

Ideal for people with established texture or scarring that hasn’t responded to milder treatments, who can allow for visible downtime and follow detailed aftercare. It suits those seeking more noticeable textural improvement with realistic expectations and who understand results build over months, not days. Final suitability is determined in a thorough doctor consultation.

Treatment Journey

Your doctor reviews your full history, medications and previous treatments. We examine your skin and discuss what can and cannot be improved. A staged plan is outlined, including preparation and recovery expectations.

We usually prepare the skin with skincare and sometimes other treatments. You may need to avoid certain medications, supplements and sun exposure. Antiviral prophylaxis may be prescribed for some clients.

After resurfacing, the skin is red, swollen and may ooze or crust depending on depth. Careful cleansing, moisture and protection are essential. You receive detailed written instructions and close follow up.
