Laser Skin Resurfacing
Skin changes in many ways as we age. Pigmentation can shift, leaving dark spots or uneven tone, and skin becomes thinner and less firm, leading to lines, wrinkles, and sagging. A range of treatments can address these concerns, and one of the most effective options to rejuvenate the face and reduce facial wrinkles is laser skin resurfacing. Dr. Erez Dayan offers laser skin resurfacing at Avance Plastic Surgery Institute in Reno/Tahoe, NV.
Laser resurfacing rewards precise judgment about depth and technique — and few are better equipped than Dr. Erez Dayan, who works directly with leading energy-based devices as a clinical investigator and key opinion leader for the companies that make them. A board-certified plastic and reconstructive surgeon and Medical Director of Avance Plastic Surgery Institute, he has published research on facial aesthetics and completed the Harvard Plastic Surgery Program — serving as Chief Resident at Massachusetts General Hospital — before an elite aesthetic fellowship at the Dallas Plastic Surgery Institute, where he was one of only two surgeons selected. That expertise lets him calibrate each treatment precisely to your skin. Laser skin resurfacing is one of the practice’s med spa treatments.
How Laser Skin Resurfacing Works
Laser skin treatments use light energy to target skin cells, and they come in several forms — from hair removal to intense pulsed light (IPL) and photo facial therapy — distinguished by the spectrum of light used and which cells they target. In laser skin resurfacing, the light energy targets and removes damaged cells from the surface of the skin. At the same time, the heat reaches the lower layers of skin, stimulating collagen production. As the old, damaged cells are removed and new collagen forms, the skin heals into a firmer, smoother, more even appearance.
“Laser resurfacing works on two levels at once — clearing away damaged surface skin while triggering new collagen underneath. Calibrating that precisely to each patient’s skin is what produces a smoother, fresher result with a manageable recovery.” — Dr. Erez Dayan
Reduce Facial Wrinkles and Scarring in Reno/Tahoe
Laser skin resurfacing is ideal for addressing the first signs of facial aging, dark spots, and scarring. Its targeted approach treats specific areas of the face to remove damaged skin and stimulate collagen, smoothing fine lines and wrinkles while fading sunspots, scars, large pores, and other imperfections. The treatment is minimally invasive, though the skin may be red and peel afterward as the old cells flake away. Over the following weeks, the skin heals to reveal a rejuvenated complexion with fewer lines, wrinkles, and flaws.
Frequently Asked Questions About Laser Skin Resurfacing
What does laser skin resurfacing treat?
It can smooth fine lines and wrinkles and fade sunspots, scars, large pores, and other skin imperfections, while improving overall tone and firmness through new collagen production.
How does it work?
Light energy removes damaged cells from the skin’s surface while heat stimulates collagen in the lower layers, so the skin heals into a firmer, smoother, more even complexion.

The treatment is minimally invasive, but the skin can be red and peel as old cells flake away. Over the following weeks, the rejuvenated skin is revealed. Dr. Dayan will explain what to expect for your treatment.
Is laser resurfacing the same as IPL?
No. Both use light energy, but they differ in the spectrum used and the cells they target. Dr. Dayan will recommend the right treatment based on your skin and goals.

It depends on your skin and the concerns being treated. Dr. Dayan will determine the optimal plan during your consultation.
