If you're curious about trying ResurFX but aren’t sure what to expect, don’t worry—we’ve got you covered. At Ariana Esthetic in Edmonton, we make your first ResurFX experience comfortable, safe, and fully customized to your skin concerns.

Before the treatment, our physician will assess your skin, review your goals, and create a personalized plan. ResurFX is ideal for concerns like acne scars, wrinkles, stretch marks, and sun damage. Because it’s non-ablative, it’s safe for all skin types with minimal downtime.

During the session, your skin will be cleansed, and a topical numbing cream may be applied for added comfort. The ResurFX laser device glides over the skin while delivering precise energy pulses to the dermis. Most patients feel a warm, tingling sensation but no pain. The procedure usually takes 30–45 minutes.

Post-treatment, your skin may appear red—similar to a mild sunburn. This typically subsides within 1-7 days. You’ll be advised to avoid sun exposure and use gentle, hydrating skincare products. Most clients return to normal activities the same day.

Over the next several weeks, you’ll start noticing improvements in skin texture, firmness, and tone. Full results develop gradually as collagen production increases. A series of 3–5 sessions is typically recommended for best results.
