It is used for acne scars, pigmentation, fine lines and uneven texture. At VK Allure Dermaclinic in Chennai, the doctor selects the depth and method based on your skin type.
Avoid during pregnancy, with active infection or cold sores in the area, or after recent isotretinoin; check first if you have a recent tan or keloid tendency.

Skin resurfacing is a procedure that removes damaged skin layers and stimulates new skin growth to improve texture and tone.
It helps treat acne scars, pigmentation, fine lines, wrinkles, and uneven skin texture.
Most people need 2–4 sessions depending on the skin condition and treatment type.
Mild redness and peeling may occur for a few days, after which the skin becomes smoother and brighter.
Yes, with careful selection. Indian and darker skin can develop temporary darkening after aggressive resurfacing, so the doctor usually prefers fractional or gentler settings and may prepare the skin beforehand. Strict sun protection before and after treatment is important. A test patch may be suggested in some cases.
Avoid sun tanning for a few weeks before. Stop retinoids, scrubs and strong acids a few days earlier, or as advised. Tell the doctor about any cold sore history, medicines or recent procedures. The doctor may prescribe a skin-preparation cream to reduce the risk of pigmentation after treatment.
Expected effects include redness, swelling, tightness and peeling for a few days. Some people may have temporary darkening of the skin, acne flares or, rarely, infection or cold sore flare-ups. Following aftercare and sun protection lowers these risks. Report blisters, oozing or worsening pain to the clinic.
Improvement in scars and texture is usually long-lasting, as it reflects new collagen and skin. However, the skin keeps ageing and can develop new pigmentation with sun exposure. Daily sunscreen, a good skin care routine and occasional maintenance treatments help keep the results for longer.
