Skin Rejuvenation

Does skin rejuvenation hurt?

Most skin rejuvenation treatments are well-tolerated and involve minimal discomfort. Sensations vary depending on the modality -- you may feel gentle warmth, light pressure, or a mild prickling as the treatment works -- but these feelings are typically brief and manageable. Services like Hydrafacial® and the Instant Glow Laser Facial are generally very comfortable, while treatments that stimulate deeper layers of the skin, such as Potenza™ RF microneedling or Clear + Brilliant®, may create more noticeable sensations. Your LaserAway Treatment Specialist will ensure you're fully prepared, adjust settings to your comfort level, and guide you through every step so the experience feels as easy and stress-free as possible.


Do any treatments require numbing?

Some rejuvenation services that target deeper layers of the skin -- such as RF microneedling -- may include a topical numbing option to enhance comfort. Your Treatment Specialist will let you know if this is recommended based on your personalized plan.

Is there discomfort after the treatment?

Post-treatment sensations vary by service. You may experience mild redness, warmth, or tightness that typically fades within hours to a few days. Your Treatment Specialist will provide aftercare guidance tailored to your treatment.

Can I choose a gentler option if I'm sensitive?

Yes. Skin rejuvenation includes a range of treatment intensities, and your Treatment Specialist can recommend gentler options -- like Hydrafacial® or the Instant Glow Laser Facial -- that still deliver meaningful results.
