WHAT OUR CLIENTS HAVE TO SAY
What Is Deep Laser Resurfacing?
Deep laser resurfacing is an advanced facial rejuvenation procedure that removes damaged outer layers of skin while stimulating significant collagen remodeling beneath the surface.
Unlike lighter laser treatments that primarily address mild pigmentation or early signs of aging, deep laser resurfacing reaches deeper layers of the skin to improve more advanced concerns, including wrinkles, sun damage, acne scars, and uneven skin texture.
Deep laser resurfacing is commonly performed on the face and around the eyes. It is frequently combined with facelift surgery, eyelid surgery, or other facial rejuvenation procedures to create comprehensive, natural-looking results.
Why Choose Deep Laser Resurfacing?
Not all laser resurfacing treatments produce the same results.
While lighter laser treatments are ideal for improving mild discoloration and maintaining healthy skin, deep laser resurfacing is designed for patients seeking more significant improvement in skin quality and visible signs of aging.
Deep laser resurfacing offers several advantages, including:
- Dramatic improvement in skin texture
- Softening of moderate to deep wrinkles
- Reduction of sun damage and pigmentation
- Improvement in acne scars and other facial scars
- Increased collagen production
- Long-lasting skin rejuvenation
- Natural-looking improvement that continues as collagen rebuilds
For many patients, deep laser resurfacing provides a level of skin renewal that cannot be achieved through topical skincare products or superficial laser treatments alone.
What Deep Laser Resurfacing Can Improve
Years of sun exposure, environmental damage, and the natural aging process affect both the surface of the skin and the deeper support structures responsible for firmness and elasticity.
Deep laser resurfacing is designed to improve advanced skin concerns by resurfacing damaged skin while stimulating healthy collagen production.
Treatment may be recommended to improve:
- Deep wrinkles around the mouth
- Fine lines around the eyes
- Sun damage and age spots
- Uneven skin tone
- Rough skin texture
- Acne scars and surgical scars
- Enlarged pores
- Crepey skin
As collagen production increases over the following months, patients often notice continued improvement in skin tone, texture, and firmness.
Consultation and Candidacy
Choosing the right laser skin resurfacing treatment begins with understanding your skin, your concerns, and your goals.
Deep laser resurfacing may be a good option if you are looking to improve:
- Advanced sun damage
- Moderate to deep wrinkles
- Acne scars
- Significant texture changes
- Long-term skin quality
- Overall facial rejuvenation
Patients with skin laxity or volume loss may benefit from combining deep laser resurfacing with facelift surgery, neck lift surgery, eyelid surgery, or other facial rejuvenation procedures to achieve more comprehensive results.
During your consultation, Dr. Maloney will evaluate your skin, discuss your goals, and determine whether deep laser resurfacing is the best treatment for your needs. If another laser treatment or combination approach would better achieve your desired outcome, we will develop a personalized treatment plan designed specifically for you.

How Treatment Works
Deep laser resurfacing uses advanced laser technology to precisely remove damaged layers of skin while stimting the body’s natural healing response.
As healing begins, fresh skin replaces damaged tissue and collagen production increases beneath the surface. This process improves both the appearance and structural quality of the skin, allowing results to continue developing for several months after treatment.
When appropriate, deep laser resurfacing can also be combined with facelift surgery, neck lift surgery, eyelid surgery, or fat transfer to further enhance facial rejuvenation.
What to Expect and Recovery
Deep laser resurfacing is performed by Dr. Maloney using advanced Sciton Erbium laser technology and a personalized treatment plan.
Following treatment, it is normal to experience redness, swelling, and peeling as your skin begins its natural healing process. Recovery time varies depending on the depth of treatment, but most patients notice healthier, smoother skin emerging as healing progresses.
Because collagen remodeling continues beneath the surface, improvements in skin tone, texture, and firmness develop gradually over several months.
During your recovery, our team will provide detailed aftercare instructions, including medical grade skincare products and sun protection guidelines, to help support healing and optimize your results.
Expertise and Approach
Successful deep laser resurfacing requires more than advanced technology. It requires experience, precision, and a thorough understanding of facial anatomy and the skin’s healing process.
At Maloney Plastic Surgery, every deep laser resurfacing treatment is performed by Dr. Maloney, a Harvard-trained, board-certified plastic surgeon with extensive experience in facial rejuvenation. Because this treatment reaches deeper layers of the skin than many non-surgical laser procedures, physician expertise plays an important role in achieving safe, predictable, and natural-looking results.
Whether performed as a standalone procedure or combined with facial surgery, every treatment is customized to your anatomy, skin condition, and long-term goals to deliver balanced, lasting results.
