Philadelphia Laser Resurfacing

Laser Resurfacing (Laser Peel)

You may be a candidate for Laser Resurfacing with Dr. Bucky if you have fine or course wrinkles on your face. Dr. Bucky’s laser peel can help you if your skin surface is uneven due to acne scars or sun damage. Your age spots (hyperpigmentation) can also be addressed by laser resurfacing. Laser peels with Dr. Bucky are intended to give you smoother, more youthful-appearing skin of more a uniform color.

The laser resurfacing procedure with Philadelphia Board Certified surgeon Dr. Bucky is usually done on an outpatient basis under local sedation and local or general anesthesia. Dr. Bucky removes your superficial layers of the skin with the pulsed laser. A major advantage of laser resurfacing is that the depth of treatment is extremely controlled and predictable. Laser skin resurfacing also tightens your skin. You will be completely healed within 7-10 days, after which you can resume wearing make-up. You may experience a redness (pink color) of the skin that generally lasts from 1-6 months.

Laser resurfacing is considered cosmetic and therefore is not covered by insurance. Dr. Bucky can only determine your individual risks and the suitability of a laser skin treatment at the time of your consultation.
