What Skin Concerns Can Be Addressed with Laser Skin Resurfacing?

If you're struggling with persistent skin issues that haven't responded to over-the-counter skincare products or other topical treatments, laser skin resurfacing may offer a highly effective solution for improving your complexion. At Pure Skin Dermatology & Aesthetics in Orlando, FL, board-certified dermatologist Dr. Debra L. Grayman specializes in treating a comprehensive range of skin concerns, including those affecting people of color. Our practice offers advanced laser technologies, including Alma Hybrid®, Alma Opus Plasma®, and Alma Harmony® XL PRO with iPixel, which can rejuvenate the skin and help you achieve a clearer, more youthful complexion.

Generally speaking, laser skin resurfacing is designed to address various cosmetic concerns, from signs of aging to acne scarring. The procedure works by removing damaged outer layers of skin and encouraging the production of fresh, healthy skin cells, resulting in smoother, clearer, and more evenly toned skin.

Is laser skin resurfacing safe for dark skin tones?

People with darker skin tones are often concerned about whether laser treatments can safely address their skin issues without causing hyperpigmentation or other complications.

Alma Hybrid and Opus Plasma are excellent options for people with melanin-rich skin, as they allow for customizable treatments with minimal risk. Dr. Grayman and our knowledgeable team will work closely with you to develop a personalized skin rejuvenation treatment plan that suits your unique skin type and goals.

Which laser skin treatment should I get?

At Pure Skin Dermatology & Aesthetics, we offer three state-of-the-art Alma laser platforms that can be used to address the diverse skin tones, types, and concerns of our clients. These include:

• Alma Hybrid: Combines ablative and non-ablative laser technologies to precisely resurface the skin with minimal discomfort.
• Alma Opus Plasma: Uses fractional radiofrequency (RF) energy to rejuvenate the top layers of skin while promoting collagen production in deeper layers.
• Alma Harmony XL PRO with iPixel: Utilizes high-powered laser beams to create tiny micro-channels in the skin, which trigger the body's natural healing response for lasting skin improvements.

Following a comprehensive consultation and skin assessment, Dr. Grayman will design a customized skin rejuvenation plan that includes one of the laser resurfacing systems above —or an alternative if necessary — that can help you achieve your ultimate skincare goals.
