Refresh Your Skin From the Inside Out
At AlluraMD in Boca Raton, we use fractional laser technology to precisely target fine lines, sun damage, acne scars, and uneven tone. The technology works by removing damaged outer layers of skin while stimulating collagen underneath. That way, your skin doesn’t just look better; it is better.
We’ll guide you through every step of the process, from choosing the right treatment to post-treatment care. Enjoy aesthetics in a clean, welcoming space. AlluraMD welcomes you to a laser skin resurfacing experience done the right way… not the rushed way.

Recovery ranges from 3-10 days, depending on the treatment level.
Laser skin resurfacing is a non-surgical treatment that uses laser energy to exfoliate damaged skin cells and trigger collagen remodeling below the surface. It’s commonly used to treat signs of aging, acne scars, pigmentation, and rough texture.
At AlluraMD, we use ablative and fractional laser systems—either alone or in combination—depending on your skin type, treatment goals, and available downtime. Deeper settings yield more dramatic results, while lighter treatments offer gentle refreshment with faster recovery.
It’s not a one-size-fits-all solution. We take the time to assess your skin and create a plan that’s both effective and appropriate for where you are in your skin journey.
On treatment day, your provider will cleanse and prep your skin. Depending on the depth of your treatment, we may apply a topical numbing cream to keep you comfortable. During the procedure, you’ll feel warmth and light zapping sensations as the laser targets the treatment areas.
The treatment typically takes 30–60 minutes. Immediately afterward, you may experience redness, swelling, or a sunburn-like sensation. We’ll apply a protective barrier and send you home with detailed aftercare instructions to support your recovery.
Milder treatments heal within a few days, while deeper treatments may require 7–10 days before you’re fully back to makeup or social plans. Either way, the payoff is brighter, tighter, healthier-looking skin.
At AlluraMD, we believe your aesthetic journey should be as enjoyable as it is transformative. We're not your typical sterile doctor's office. We've cultivated a playful, positive, and polished environment that feels more like a spa day with your friends than a medical appointment. Book online or call now (561) 264-7805
Laser resurfacing is one of the most versatile tools in aesthetics. It’s particularly effective for patients who want a noticeable improvement without injectables or surgery. Whether you’re looking to soften fine lines, fade dark spots, or smooth acne scarring, laser energy can precisely target what’s holding your skin back.
We often use laser treatments to address:
While most people think of laser resurfacing as a facial treatment, it’s also an excellent option for improving skin quality on other parts of the body… especially where sun damage, aging, or scarring have left a visible mark.
At AlluraMD, we customize laser settings to safely treat areas such as:
Softens lines, refines texture, and evens tone across the forehead, cheeks, lips, and around the eyes.
Smooths crepey texture and addresses early sagging or sun-related damage.
Fades discoloration and roughness, helping the skin match the freshness of the face.
Reduces sun spots and rough texture for smoother, younger-looking hands.
Improves acne scars, pigmentation, and uneven texture in areas that are often exposed but hard to treat with topicals alone.
Laser resurfacing creates change you can see and feel—by rebuilding collagen, removing damaged cells, and jump-starting renewal below the surface. The result is skin that looks clearer, smoother, and more even. Most patients love that the results are progressive and long-lasting —especially when paired with a great skincare routine.
You’ll notice:
Most healthy adults with mild to moderate skin concerns are good candidates for laser resurfacing. It’s especially popular with patients in their 30s to 60s who are seeing the first signs of aging or still dealing with scarring from past acne.
However, laser resurfacing may not be suitable if you:
We’ll always assess your skin type, concerns, and medical history to ensure you’re matched with the right treatment.
Recovery depends on how deep we go. After a light treatment, expect some redness, dryness, and light peeling for 3–5 days. For deeper resurfacing, you’ll see more intense peeling and sensitivity that can last 7–10 days. We’ll check in with you to make sure everything is healing on track and answer any questions as you go. Most patients feel fully back to normal within two weeks and love how their skin continues to improve in the months that follow.
During recovery, it’s important to:
Laser resurfacing delivers both short and long-term results. Within the first week, you’ll notice brighter skin and a more even surface. As collagen continues to rebuild over the next 1–3 months, your skin will feel firmer, smoother, and more refined.
Results can last for years with proper skincare and sun protection. Many patients choose to repeat lighter treatments seasonally, or schedule a deeper session every few years to maintain results.
At AlluraMD, laser resurfacing is more than a treatment—it’s a conversation about your skin’s future. We take the time to understand where your skin is now, where you’d like it to be, and how to get you there in a way that feels aligned, intentional, and realistic. Our providers combine deep aesthetic knowledge with the latest in laser technology to deliver smooth, natural-looking outcomes with care and precision.
That depends on your goals and skin condition. Some patients see great results from a single deep treatment. Others prefer a series of lighter treatments spaced several weeks apart. We’ll help you decide what’s right for you.
You’ll start seeing brighter, clearer skin within a week. Deeper improvements in texture and firmness build over the next 1–3 months as collagen remodels.
Most patients describe it as warm or prickly. We use topical numbing cream to make the experience as comfortable as possible.
Light resurfacing heals in 3–5 days. Deeper resurfacing may take up to 10 days for full recovery. We'll guide you through exactly what to expect.
Certain lasers carry a higher risk of pigmentation changes in deeper skin tones. We’ll evaluate your skin during consultation to determine the safest and most effective approach.
Yes, it’s one of the best options for reducing the appearance of acne scars by smoothing texture and stimulating collagen.
Sun protection is key. We also recommend supportive skincare (like retinol, peptides, and hydration) to prolong your results and prevent future damage.
Once your skin has fully healed, yes. For light treatments, that may be just a few days. For deeper treatments, you’ll want to wait 7–10 days.
