Laser Skin Rejuvenation Results
See Real Changes in Your Skin
Your skin tells a story. Years of sun exposure, acne breakouts, and natural aging leave their mark in ways that creams and serums just can’t fix.
Laser resurfacing changes that narrative. You’ll see smoother texture where rough patches used to be. Fine lines soften. Acne scars become less noticeable. The uneven tone that’s been bothering you starts to balance out.
Most clients notice initial improvements within a week, with continued enhancement over the following months as your skin produces new collagen. You’re not just covering up problems—you’re actually improving your skin at a cellular level.

Laser Resurfacing Treatment Process
Your Path to Better Skin
Your journey begins with a thorough skin assessment during your complimentary consultation. We evaluate your skin type, concerns, and goals to determine the best laser resurfacing approach for you.
On treatment day, your skin is cleansed and prepared. The laser is calibrated to your specific needs—whether you’re targeting acne scars, wrinkles, or overall texture improvement. Most sessions take 30-60 minutes depending on the treatment area.
Recovery varies by treatment intensity. Some clients return to normal activities the next day with minimal redness, while others may experience a few days of healing similar to a sunburn. You’ll receive detailed aftercare instructions and medical-grade skincare to optimize your results. A two-week follow-up ensures you’re healing properly and addresses any concerns.

Laser Resurfacing Treatment Options
Customized Treatments for Your Goals
House of Ness offers both ablative and non-ablative laser resurfacing options. Non-ablative treatments work beneath the skin’s surface with minimal downtime, perfect for busy Hackensack professionals who can’t take time off work.
Ablative laser resurfacing provides more dramatic results for deeper wrinkles and significant acne scarring, though it requires a longer recovery period. We’ll recommend the best approach based on your skin concerns and lifestyle.
Each treatment includes pre-treatment skin preparation, the laser session itself, and comprehensive aftercare support. You’ll also receive guidance on medical-grade skincare products that protect and enhance your results long-term. The goal isn’t just better skin today—it’s maintaining those improvements for years to come.
How long does laser resurfacing recovery take in Hackensack?
Recovery time depends on the type of laser resurfacing you choose. Non-ablative laser treatments typically involve minimal downtime—you might have slight redness for a day or two, similar to a mild sunburn.
Ablative laser resurfacing requires more recovery time, usually 7-10 days for the initial healing phase. Your skin will be red and may peel as new skin emerges. Most Hackensack clients plan their treatments around work schedules, taking a long weekend for ablative treatments.
We provide detailed aftercare instructions and medical-grade products to speed healing and optimize results. You’ll have a follow-up appointment at two weeks to ensure everything is progressing normally.
What skin concerns does laser resurfacing treat best?
Laser resurfacing excels at treating textural issues that topical products can’t address. Acne scars, particularly rolling and boxcar scars, respond very well to laser treatments. Fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes and mouth also see significant improvement.
Sun damage, age spots, and uneven skin tone are other strong candidates for laser resurfacing. If you have rough skin texture or enlarged pores, laser treatments can create smoother, more refined skin.
However, laser resurfacing isn’t ideal for active acne, very dark skin tones, or certain medical conditions. During your consultation, we’ll assess whether you’re a good candidate and discuss alternative treatments if needed.
How much does laser resurfacing cost in Hackensack?
Laser resurfacing costs vary based on the treatment area, laser type, and number of sessions needed. Non-ablative treatments typically range from $800-1,500 per session, while ablative treatments can range from $1,500-3,500.
House of Ness provides transparent pricing during your complimentary consultation—no hidden fees or surprise charges. We also offer special pricing for military personnel, nurses, and first responders, plus participate in the Allē rewards program for additional savings.
Many clients find laser resurfacing more cost-effective than ongoing facials and skincare products that provide temporary results. You’re investing in actual skin improvement that lasts for years with proper care.
Is laser resurfacing safe for all skin types?
Laser resurfacing safety depends on your skin type, medical history, and the specific laser used. Lighter skin tones generally respond best to most laser treatments, while darker skin requires careful laser selection to avoid pigmentation changes.
Our board-certified plastic surgeon evaluates each client individually to determine the safest, most effective approach. Some clients with darker skin may be better candidates for alternative treatments like chemical peels or microneedling.
Certain medications, recent sun exposure, or active skin conditions can affect treatment safety. That’s why the thorough consultation process is so important—it ensures you receive the right treatment at the right time for optimal results and safety.
How many laser resurfacing sessions will I need?
The number of sessions depends on your skin concerns and goals. Minor texture issues or fine lines might improve significantly after one ablative treatment, while deeper acne scars or extensive sun damage may require 2-3 sessions spaced several months apart.
Non-ablative treatments typically require a series of 3-5 sessions scheduled 4-6 weeks apart for optimal results. The gradual approach allows your skin to build collagen progressively with minimal downtime between treatments.
During your consultation, we’ll provide a realistic treatment plan based on your specific concerns. We’ll also discuss maintenance treatments to help preserve your results long-term, though many clients enjoy their improved skin for years after completing their initial treatment series.
What should I expect during laser resurfacing treatment?
Most clients describe laser resurfacing as feeling like rubber bands snapping against the skin, followed by a warm sensation. Topical numbing cream is applied before treatment to minimize discomfort, and the laser has built-in cooling to protect your skin.
The actual laser treatment takes 30-60 minutes depending on the area being treated. You’ll hear the laser working and may smell a slight burning odor—this is normal and indicates the laser is effectively targeting damaged skin cells.
Immediately after treatment, your skin will feel warm and look red, similar to a sunburn. We apply soothing products and provide detailed aftercare instructions. Most clients are surprised that the treatment is more comfortable than they expected, especially with proper numbing and cooling techniques.
