What is laser skin resurfacing? January 24, 2023 Laser skin resurfacing is a minimally invasive, non-surgical cosmetic treatment that evens out your unwanted hyperpigmented skin and uneven skin texture for the ultimate smooth complexion. At Studio Essex, we use the Fraxel® laser to improve your overall skin tone, reduce your sun damage, and improve the appearance of your acne scarring. The Fraxel® laser technology is designed with cooling technology to give you smoother and younger-looking skin with minimal discomfort and minimal downtime.
