Your skin tells a story. Years of sun exposure, acne, and natural aging leave their mark in ways that creams and serums just can’t touch. Laser resurfacing reaches deeper—targeting the damaged layers where real change happens.
You’re not looking for perfection. You want your skin to look healthy, smooth, and naturally refreshed. The kind of improvement that makes you feel confident without makeup, comfortable in your own skin again.
Our laser treatments stimulate your body’s natural collagen production while removing damaged surface layers. The result? Smoother texture, more even tone, and that healthy glow that comes from genuinely healthier skin. Most clients see immediate improvements that continue getting better over the following months.
House of Ness brings premier aesthetic expertise to Grant City residents. Led by a Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon and staffed by licensed professionals, we’ve built our reputation on delivering natural-looking results through advanced laser technology.
What sets us apart in the Staten Island area is our commitment to personalized care. Every client receives a complimentary consultation, detailed treatment planning, and two-week follow-up with touch-ups if needed. No rushing, no pressure—just expert guidance tailored to your specific skin concerns.
As a platinum-level Allergan partner, House of Ness maintains the highest standards in aesthetic medicine. Our Grant City clients appreciate the transparent pricing, minimal wait times, and the welcoming atmosphere that makes advanced skincare feel approachable rather than intimidating.
Your laser resurfacing journey begins with a thorough consultation where we examine your skin, discuss your goals, and create a customized treatment plan. No generic approaches—every treatment is tailored to your skin type and concerns.
On treatment day, your skin is thoroughly cleansed and a topical numbing cream is applied for comfort. The laser is then precisely calibrated and moved systematically across the treatment area, removing damaged skin layers while stimulating deeper collagen production. The entire process typically takes 30 minutes to two hours depending on the area being treated.
Recovery varies based on treatment intensity. Lighter treatments might involve just a few days of mild redness, while more comprehensive resurfacing can require 7-14 days of healing time. Throughout your recovery, you’ll receive detailed aftercare instructions and follow-up support to ensure optimal results and proper healing.

House of Ness utilizes state-of-the-art laser systems including CO2 and fractional technologies that can be precisely adjusted for your specific needs. Whether you’re dealing with fine lines around the eyes, acne scarring, sun damage, or uneven pigmentation, we have the tools and expertise to address your concerns effectively.
Grant City residents benefit from our comprehensive approach that combines laser treatments with medical-grade skincare recommendations. This isn’t just about the procedure—it’s about optimizing and protecting your results long-term. Our team matches each client with the right provider based on their expertise and your specific goals.
We offer flexible treatment options, from gentle “prejuvenation” sessions with minimal downtime to more intensive resurfacing for dramatic results. Special consideration is given to Staten Island’s climate and lifestyle factors, ensuring your treatment plan fits realistically into your life and delivers results that look natural in your environment.
Downtime varies significantly based on the type and intensity of laser treatment you receive. Light treatments like non-ablative laser resurfacing typically involve 2-3 days of mild redness with no actual downtime—you can return to work and normal activities immediately.
More intensive fractional CO2 treatments usually require 5-7 days of social downtime, during which your skin will be red and may peel as it heals. Full ablative treatments, while offering the most dramatic results, can require 10-14 days of recovery time.
During your consultation, we’ll discuss your lifestyle and timeline to recommend the treatment intensity that fits your schedule. Most Grant City clients find the results well worth the temporary inconvenience, especially when they understand exactly what to expect beforehand.
Laser resurfacing excels at treating concerns that originate in the deeper layers of your skin. This includes fine lines and wrinkles, especially around the eyes and mouth, acne scars, sun damage, age spots, and uneven skin texture or tone.
The treatment is particularly effective for sun damage common in the Staten Island area, where residents spend significant time outdoors. It can also address enlarged pores, minor facial scars, and that overall dull or tired appearance that develops with age.
However, laser resurfacing isn’t ideal for active acne, very deep wrinkles, or significant skin sagging. During your consultation, we’ll honestly assess whether laser treatment is your best option or if you might benefit more from other procedures like injectables or surgical options.
Many clients see noticeable improvement after just one treatment, but the number of sessions depends on your specific concerns and desired outcome. Minor fine lines and light sun damage often respond well to a single session, while deeper issues like acne scarring typically require 2-3 treatments spaced several months apart.
Fractional laser treatments are often done in a series to build results gradually with minimal downtime between sessions. More aggressive CO2 treatments usually provide dramatic results in a single session but require longer recovery time.
Your treatment plan will be customized during your consultation based on your skin condition, goals, and lifestyle. We’ll be upfront about realistic expectations and won’t oversell you on treatments you don’t need. The goal is optimal results with the most efficient approach for your situation.
Most clients describe laser resurfacing as uncomfortable rather than painful, especially with proper numbing. Before treatment begins, a topical anesthetic cream is applied to minimize discomfort. Many people compare the sensation to a rubber band snapping against the skin or a warm, prickling feeling.
More intensive treatments may involve additional pain management options, including oral medications or cooling devices used during the procedure. The actual laser application is relatively quick—discomfort is temporary and manageable for most people.
After treatment, you might experience a sunburn-like sensation for the first 24-48 hours, which responds well to cool compresses and prescribed aftercare products. The key is having realistic expectations and following pre- and post-treatment instructions carefully to minimize discomfort and optimize healing.
Laser resurfacing results are long-lasting because the treatment actually stimulates new collagen production and removes damaged skin layers permanently. The improvements you see—smoother texture, more even tone, reduced fine lines—represent genuine skin regeneration, not temporary fixes.
Most clients enjoy their results for 3-5 years or longer, though this varies based on factors like sun exposure, skincare routine, and natural aging. The collagen stimulation continues for months after treatment, so results actually improve over time initially.
To maintain your results, consistent sun protection is crucial, along with a quality skincare routine. Many Grant City clients schedule maintenance treatments every few years to address new concerns as they develop. The key is that laser resurfacing creates a better foundation for your skin that ages more gracefully going forward.
