At St. Petersburg Skin and Laser, we want you to feel confident and prepared every step of the way. Here's what to expect at your laser appointment.
Your Laser Treatment Journey
From consultation to results, here's exactly what happens during your laser treatment experience
Step 1: Personalized Consultation
Your first visit is all about you. One of our Double Board Certified Dermatologists will sit down with you to understand your skin concerns, goals, and medical history. We'll examine your skin closely, discuss your lifestyle, and explain which laser treatments will be most effective for your specific needs. This isn't a sales pitch—it's a medical consultation where we create a personalized plan just for you.
Step 2: Pre-Treatment Preparation
Once we've determined the best treatment for you, we'll provide detailed pre-care instructions. This might include avoiding certain skincare products, sun exposure, or medications for a period before your treatment. We'll also discuss realistic expectations, recovery time, and provide you with everything you need to prepare your skin for optimal results.
Step 3: The Treatment Experience
On treatment day, you'll arrive at our comfortable, state-of-the-art facility. We'll cleanse your skin and apply numbing cream if needed. During the procedure, our Double Board Certified dermatologists use advanced laser technology with precision and care. Most patients find the experience more comfortable than expected, and we're with you every step of the way to ensure your comfort.
Step 4: Post-Treatment Care
After your treatment, we'll provide comprehensive aftercare instructions and any necessary products to optimize your healing. You'll have direct access to our team for any questions or concerns during your recovery. We'll schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your progress and ensure you're healing beautifully.
Step 5: Beautiful Results
As your skin heals and regenerates, you'll begin to see the improvements you've been hoping for. Depending on your treatment, results may be immediate or gradual, but they're designed to be long-lasting. We'll continue to support you with follow-up care and maintenance recommendations to help you maintain your beautiful results.
