Contact UsWhat Is Laser Skin Resurfacing?
Laser skin resurfacing with the Pixel Erbium laser at Washington Skin Solutions is a cosmetic procedure that removes damaged surface skin layer by layer. The procedure addresses facial wrinkles and lines and diminishes skin irregularities, including acne scars, pigmentation, and other flaws. Fractional skin resurfacing is ideal for people who want softer, clearer, youthful-looking skin. Registered nurse Nikki Brueggemann can review any questions or concerns during the consultation.
Am I A Good Candidate for Laser Skin Resurfacing?
There are several factors to consider when deciding which method of laser skin resurfacing treatment is best for you. Laser skin resurfacing is ideal for patients who are unhappy with their overall complexion. If you have sun damage, acne scars, age spots, fine lines and wrinkles, pigmentation, or redness concerns, this treatment can be needed to improve these complexion blemishes. In addition, laser skin resurfacing works effectively for those who have scaly patches, rough texture, or other irregularities. Laser skin resurfacing isn't suggested for anyone who has very dark skin tones or active acne outbreaks. Additionally, it is important to know that there is downtime associated with these laser treatments. Some patients, based on the condition of their skin, may need as much as 2 – 3 weeks for recovery.
What Are the Benefits of Laser Skin Resurfacing?

- Minimized appearance of wrinkles and lines

Our Laser Skin Resurfacing Technique
Before you are scheduled for a deeper or more intense laser resurfacing session, you will be asked to stop using a topical retinoid for a few weeks before your laser treatment. This helps prepare the skin for better results. You will relax in our treatment chair while the laser glides over the face during the procedure. The laser vaporizes dead and damaged skin cells while promoting new collagen and elastin production. Three to four days of recovery time is needed for most laser skin resurfacing procedures.
Laser Skin Resurfacing Reviews
I had a consultation with Nikki today for skin care. Very clean environment. Staff professional and very caring for my health safety following Covid protocol. A few skin care suggestions. Nothing pushy at all. I left making my next apt and look forward to successful results. Vicki
I am posting on my husbands Google account because I do not do social media but I wanted to give Nikki a review. Nikki and her staff are wonderful and professional. I have had several different treatments done by Nikki and have always been extremely happy with the results. Nikki is knowledgeable about the products that she sells and the procedures that she performs, and she takes great care to maintain a very clean and safe environment at her med spa. I will continue to go to Nikki for skin care procedures and I recommend it to anyone looking for the services she provides.

About UsLaser Skin Resurfacing FAQs
How can I help my skin recover after a resurfacing treatment?
Nikki Brueggemann or a team member will talk to you about how you can speed skin healing following your laser treatment. The number one rule is don't pick or peel flaking skin. Doing this can lead to long-term damage, including scars. You should skip all hair removal methods in the treatment area, which means no shaving, waxing, or depilatory creams. We will recommend a cream to help soothe and heal your skin.
Should I get laser skin resurfacing, a chemical peel, or dermabrasion?
Once Nikki Brueggemann has listened to your skin concerns, she will help you choose whether laser skin resurfacing, dermabrasion, or a chemical peel fits your needs and goals. While they all improve your skin, each has its pros and cons. During your initial consultation, she can review each option and make a recommendation for your treatment plan.
How often should I get laser resurfacing treatments?
Based on the laser resurfacing type you and Nikki Brueggemann select for your treatment, you might need to wait several weeks or even a few months between treatments. Deep laser treatments will provide results that last a long time, but do require more time for recovery. You should tell her about how often you want to come back for appointments so she can consider this when choosing a treatment plan during your initial consultation.
