How does laser resurfacing work?

Laser resurfacing uses concentrated light energy to remove damaged outer layers of skin while stimulating collagen production in deeper layers. This encourages new, healthy skin to grow, improving texture, tone, and overall radiance.

What skin concerns can laser resurfacing treat?

Laser resurfacing is highly effective for fine lines, wrinkles, sun damage, pigmentation irregularities, acne scars, enlarged pores, and uneven skin texture. We select different lasers based on the specific concern and desired depth of treatment.

How many sessions will I need?

The number of treatments depends on your skin type, concern, and the type of laser used. Most patients see noticeable results in 1 to 3 sessions, but some lasers or light treatments may use up to 6. Your provider will recommend a personalized plan during your consultation based on your skin concerns and on the device we recommend for your laser resurfacing in Indianapolis.

Is there downtime after laser resurfacing?

Downtime varies by procedure: non-ablative lasers typically require little to no recovery, while deeper ablative lasers may involve several days of redness, peeling, or swelling. Your provider will outline what to expect based on your treatment plan.

How soon will I see results?

Some improvements are noticeable immediately, particularly in skin brightness and texture. Full results develop gradually over weeks to months as collagen rebuilds and skin heals.

Are laser resurfacing results permanent?

Laser resurfacing can provide long-lasting improvements, but natural aging, sun exposure, and lifestyle factors can affect outcomes. Periodic maintenance treatments can help preserve your rejuvenated skin.

Turkle & Associates and Phases Skin Care & Laser Center work together in one Carmel location, giving patients a connected approach to surgical and non-surgical aesthetics. Turkle & Associates focuses on plastic surgery and injectables. At Phases, our providers offer skin treatments, wellness services, and aesthetic options that do not require surgery.

Our expertise brings a deeper understanding of anatomy, balance, tissue behavior, aging, healing, and natural-looking results to every patient experience. This perspective shapes how we plan treatments, whether you visit for surgery, injectables, or med spa treatments.

It also gives our practitioners a broader view of treatment timing as it aligns with your expectations and lifestyle. Some patients benefit from non-surgical care before surgery to improve skin quality. Others schedule routine treatments at Phases after surgery to maintain their results or support overall wellness. An agreed-upon outcome helps us shape an intentional, realistic plan that reflects your long-term goals.

Use the filter tabs on this page to explore procedures and treatments across both sides of the practice, from plastic surgery to injectables. As you browse, think about what you want to change, how much downtime fits your schedule, and whether you want gradual refinement or a more defined transformation.

If you’d like more guidance, our treatment planning tool gives you a starting point before your visit. From there, our team can guide you toward care that fits your goals, timeline, and comfort level.
