Laser Skin Resurfacing in Beverly Hills by Dr. Patrick Davis
Laser skin resurfacing is often regarded as the most effective treatment for comprehensive complexion enhancement, inducing deep, natural dermal repair. As such, it delivers improvements in a broad range of cosmetic skin-related issues. Patrick Davis, MD, takes an advanced approach to laser skin resurfacing.
When considering skin treatments, many patients are torn between Radiofrequency (RF) microneedling or laser skin resurfacing Beverly Hills facial plastic surgeon, Dr. Davis asks why not both, at the same time! Laser skin resurfacing acts to rejuvenate tired, wrinkled skin by providing temporary, controlled injury to your skin and stimulating deep regeneration. Dr. Davis offers skilled and experienced Secret RF and laser skin resurfacing treatments to deliver stunningly natural results.
Laser skin resurfacing uses thermal energy to cause controlled damage to the skin’s outer layers. This causes instant tightening and also stimulates natural dermal repair, boosting collagen production to replace damaged skin cells with new, healthier cells. With a fresh, new complexion, you can expect brighter, smoother, clearer, and firmer skin.
Laser skin resurfacing offers improvements to the texture, appearance, and elasticity of your skin, making it an effective treatment for virtually any cosmetic skin-related concern. Benefits of laser skin resurfacing include:
For deeper dermal repair, supercharge your laser treatment with Secret RF microneedling. Secret RF is a synergistic skin treatment that combines traditional microneedling with RF energy. This treatment creates tiny puncture wounds in the skin and delivers thermal energy deep within the skin simultaneously to induce more substantial repair throughout the skin’s layers.
Laser skin resurfacing is an excellent treatment option for virtually any patient with concerns about the appearance of their skin. Candidates should not smoke, be in good general health, and have realistic expectations for their treatment outcome.
Your laser skin resurfacing procedure will be performed under local anesthesia with sedation.
You can expect Laser Skin Resurfacing to take anywhere from 30 minutes for smaller areas up to two hours for the entire face. During your procedure, Dr. Davis will carefully guide the handheld applicator over the targeted areas to deliver even and precise treatment. Once your treatment is complete, he will apply a dressing to your treated skin and prepare you for your at-home recovery. You will need to arrange for a close friend or family member to drive you home after your procedure.
Beginning 24 hours after treatment, you will need to clean your treated skin and apply a moisturizing ointment several times a day to prevent scabbing and infection. You should expect swelling, itching, and stinging for the first few days after your treatment. Five to seven days after your treatment, your skin will begin to peel. You will need to avoid picking at your skin as it heals. Your recovery from laser skin resurfacing will take 10 to 21 days, after which time you will be able to apply oil-free makeup to conceal any lingering redness. You will also need to protect your new skin from sun exposure for the duration of your recovery.
Our Beverly Hills Laser Skin Resurfacing patients typically see results gradually develop as their skin heals and cellular regeneration takes place. Your full results will be apparent two to three months after your treatment and can be maintained with ongoing skin care and sun protection.

Most Beverly Hills CO2 laser skin resurfacing patients report results that last between 3-5 years. However, some patients maintain their results beyond five years with proper skin care.
While chemical peels can also effectively resurface the skin, they are not as precise as laser resurfacing.
Your skin will be red for several days. In some cases, there may be some mild oozing or blistering. However, these minor side effects will subside quickly. After redness subsides, your skin may appear lighter than normal. This is to be expected as new cells replace damaged skin.
