Laser resurfacing: what you need to know
Laser resurfacing treatments use what is known as an ablative laser. This type of laser removes a small fraction of the skin’s surface tissue while heating the deeper dermal layers. This ‘controlled injury’ stimulates production of collagen, the key building block responsible for skin’s firmness. As the skin heals and regenerates, the treated area becomes smoother and tighter, more uniform in texture and more youthful in appearance.
This healing process dramatically improves the appearance of pigmentation, lines and wrinkles, stretch marks, burns and scarring.

CO2 laser resurfacing with Secret Pro
Secret PRO combines the proven power of fractional CO2 laser resfuracing and radiofrequency microneedling to offer superb results for skin resurfacing. It can be used on both the face and body for multiple concerns, including lines, wrinkles, large pores, stretch marks and acne scars. The intensity of the treatment is adapted to each patient’s needs.
During a Secret PRO treatment, the skin’s surface is fractionally ablated by a CO2 laser, while the dermal layer is heated by radiofrequency microneedling. Together these two technologies create a controlled injury which triggers a healing and regenerating response across different levels of the skin. This stimulates fresh collagen and elastin production for smoother, tighter, more uniform and more youthful looking skin.

Our Secret PRO treatment is well tolerated by patients, with discomfort minimised by topical numbing cream and a cryocooler which blows cold air on the skin. Redness, swelling and crusting of the skin are typically seen afterwards, with little to no downtime depending on the intensity of the treatment. This will be discussed and agreed in advance.
UltraClear
UltraClear is a groundbreaking resurfacing laser that can be used to treat multiple concerns such as fine lines, wrinkles, sun damage, uneven skin tone, large pores, scarring and stretch marks. It uses a new wavelength developed to reduce downtime and be more comfortable for the patient while still delivering exceptional outcomes.
UltraClear is the first resurfacing laser to have FDA approval for treating all skin types and tones. It is a unique ‘cold laser’ which dramatically reduces the risk of heat-induced side effects which can affect darker skin, such as post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

UltraClear allows our experts to treat multiple concerns at the same time. Pigmentation caused by sun damage responds exceptionally well to the lighter setting, while the deeper setting improves skin texture concerns such as deep lines and wrinkles and scars. Topical anaesthetic is often not required at the lighter settings, which is a remarkable advance for laser therapy.
Downtime is typically a few days, depending on the intensity of the treatment. This is considerably less than traditional ablative laser treatment.
Who will perform my treatment?
Our specialist team at our London clinic use advanced laser devices that are highly versatile. This allows our specialists to adapt the treatment intensity to match each patient’s needs. We offer lighter resurfacing for concerns such as fine lines and pigmentation, and deeper treatments to remodel deep wrinkles and scar tissue.
