Your skin tells the story of every laugh line, every late night, every day in the sun. Laser resurfacing doesn’t just address what you see on the surface—it works beneath to stimulate new collagen production and reveal smoother, firmer skin.
Whether you’re dealing with stubborn acne scars that makeup can’t quite cover or fine lines that seem to deepen each year, our precision laser treatments target these concerns at their source. You’ll notice improved skin texture, reduced wrinkle depth, and a more even complexion that looks natural—not overdone.
The results speak for themselves: tighter skin, diminished scarring, and the kind of radiant complexion that makes you feel confident going makeup-free.
We bring board-certified plastic surgery expertise to Midland Beach residents who demand excellence in aesthetic care. Led by a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and staffed by licensed, certified injectors, we’ve built our reputation on delivering natural, balanced results that enhance rather than alter.
As a platinum-level Allergan partner, we maintain the highest standards in the industry. Every client receives a complimentary consultation and a two-week follow-up with touch-up if needed—because your results matter as much to us as they do to you.
Staten Island residents appreciate our transparent approach: no hidden fees, minimal wait times, and honest conversations about what laser resurfacing can and cannot achieve for your specific skin concerns.
Your laser resurfacing experience begins with a thorough consultation where we evaluate your skin type, discuss your concerns, and determine the best treatment approach for your goals. We’ll explain exactly which type of laser—whether CO2, Erbium, or fractional—will deliver the results you’re looking for.
On treatment day, we ensure your comfort with appropriate numbing and sedation as needed. The laser precisely targets damaged skin layers while promoting new collagen growth beneath the surface. Most treatments take 30 minutes to 2 hours depending on the area being treated.
Recovery varies based on the laser type and treatment depth. You might experience some redness and peeling initially, but we provide detailed aftercare instructions and medical-grade skincare to optimize your healing. Most clients return to normal activities within a week, with continued improvement visible for months as new collagen develops.

We offer multiple laser resurfacing options to address the diverse skincare needs of Midland Beach residents. CO2 laser resurfacing provides dramatic results for deep wrinkles and significant sun damage, while Erbium lasers offer gentler treatment with faster recovery for moderate concerns.
Fractional laser treatments create microscopic treatment zones, leaving surrounding tissue intact for quicker healing—perfect for busy Staten Island professionals who need minimal downtime. Non-ablative options stimulate collagen without removing surface skin, ideal for those seeking gradual improvement.
Given Staten Island’s diverse population and varying skin types, we carefully evaluate each client’s Fitzpatrick skin type to ensure safe, effective treatment. Our board-certified team has extensive experience treating all skin tones, understanding the unique considerations required for darker complexions to prevent complications like hyperpigmentation.
Recovery time depends on the type of laser treatment you receive. Non-ablative laser resurfacing typically requires 24-48 hours of downtime, while fractional treatments need about one week for full recovery. More aggressive CO2 laser resurfacing may require up to two weeks.
During the first few days, expect some redness, swelling, and sensitivity—similar to a sunburn. Your skin may peel as it heals, revealing fresh, new skin underneath. We provide detailed aftercare instructions and medical-grade products to optimize your healing process.
Most Midland Beach clients can return to work within a week, though you may want to plan some additional social downtime while any pinkness fades. The key is following our post-treatment care guidelines precisely to ensure the best possible results.
Laser resurfacing excels at treating multiple skin concerns simultaneously. We see excellent results with fine lines and wrinkles, especially around the eyes and mouth where traditional skincare products struggle to make an impact. Acne scars respond particularly well, with most clients seeing significant improvement in texture and depth.
Sun damage, age spots, and uneven pigmentation also improve dramatically with laser treatment. The procedure can tighten loose skin and improve overall skin texture, giving you a smoother, more youthful appearance. Even enlarged pores and rough skin texture show marked improvement.
However, laser resurfacing works best on lighter skin tones for certain concerns. During your consultation, we’ll honestly assess whether you’re a good candidate and discuss alternative treatments if laser resurfacing isn’t the optimal choice for your specific skin type and concerns.
Laser resurfacing costs vary significantly based on the type of treatment, the area being treated, and the depth of correction needed. Non-ablative treatments typically cost less but may require multiple sessions, while ablative treatments cost more upfront but often deliver results in a single session.
At House of Ness, we believe in transparent pricing with no hidden fees. During your complimentary consultation, we’ll provide a detailed treatment plan with exact costs based on your specific needs. We also offer financing options to make treatment more accessible.
Remember that laser resurfacing is an investment in your skin’s long-term health and appearance. When performed by board-certified professionals using medical-grade equipment, the results can last for years, making it a cost-effective choice compared to ongoing skincare treatments that deliver temporary results.
Laser resurfacing safety depends heavily on your skin type and the specific laser technology used. Lighter skin tones (Fitzpatrick types I-III) generally respond well to all types of laser resurfacing with minimal risk of complications.
For medium to darker skin tones, we take extra precautions to prevent hyperpigmentation and other complications. Erbium lasers are often safer for darker skin than CO2 lasers, and we may recommend a series of gentler treatments rather than one aggressive session.
Our board-certified team has extensive experience treating Staten Island’s diverse population. We carefully evaluate your skin type, medical history, and specific concerns during consultation to determine the safest, most effective approach. If laser resurfacing isn’t appropriate for your skin type, we’ll recommend alternative treatments that can achieve your goals safely.
You’ll notice some immediate improvements in skin texture and tone right after healing, but laser resurfacing results continue developing for months. Initial healing typically takes 1-2 weeks, after which you’ll see smoother, tighter skin with improved texture.
The most dramatic improvements appear 2-3 months post-treatment as new collagen production peaks. Fine lines continue softening, acne scars become less noticeable, and overall skin quality improves. Many clients report continued improvement for up to six months after treatment.
For optimal results, we often recommend combining laser resurfacing with medical-grade skincare products. This approach helps maintain and enhance your results while protecting your investment. During your follow-up appointments, we’ll track your progress and make any necessary adjustments to your skincare routine.
Combining laser resurfacing with other aesthetic treatments can enhance your overall results, but timing and treatment selection require careful planning. We often recommend pausing injectable treatments like Botox and fillers for several weeks before and after laser resurfacing to optimize healing.
Medical-grade skincare products are not only compatible but essential for maintaining your laser resurfacing results. We typically introduce specific products during your healing process and develop a long-term skincare routine to protect and enhance your investment.
Some clients benefit from combining different types of laser treatments or adding procedures like chemical peels at appropriate intervals. During your consultation, we’ll develop a comprehensive treatment plan that addresses all your concerns safely and effectively, spacing treatments appropriately to ensure optimal results and minimize any risk of complications.
