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.

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.
The Secret PRO treatment is a cutting-edge laser skin treatment that stands at the forefront of advanced skin rejuvenation therapies. This effective and innovative procedure caters to a diverse range of skin types, including darker skin tones, promoting the attainment of healthy and smoother skin. Administered by skilled practitioners here at PHI Clinic, the treatment addresses various concerns such as dark circles, facial wrinkles, and the appearance of pores. By targeting layers of skin and stimulating collagen formation, Secret PRO extends its benefits to encompass light skin types as well. This approach ensures a holistic enhancement of skin health across the entire body. The treatment is particularly advantageous for individuals who have experienced excessive sun exposure, seeking to restore and rejuvenate their skin.

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?
At our Harley Street clinic, our specialist team uses advanced laser devices that are highly versatile. This enables us to tailor the treatment intensity to match each patient’s unique needs. We offer lighter resurfacing for concerns such as fine lines and pigmentation, and deeper treatments to remodel deep skin issues like type of scarring and skin laxity.
Benefits of Laser Skin Resurfacing
Laser resurfacing is an effective treatment for improving the appearance of the skin by addressing a wide range of concerns. The benefits of laser skin resurfacing include reducing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and scars, while also enhancing collagen rejuvenation and collagen growth. This laser procedure is ideal for those looking to improve damaged skin, rough texture, and loose skin, resulting in a more youthful and refreshed appearance.
Post-Treatment Care
Following your laser resurfacing treatment, proper post-treatment care is essential. We recommend avoiding sun exposure and using appropriate skincare products to support the healing process. Mild redness and minor swelling are common, but these typically subside within a couple of days. Your practitioner will provide specific aftercare instructions to ensure the best possible results.
Are You an Ideal Candidate?
Laser resurfacing is suitable for most skin types and tones, making it an excellent choice for those seeking to address a range of skin concerns. However, it's essential to consult with our experts to determine if you are an ideal candidate for the treatment based on your facial anatomy, skin type, and desired outcomes.
