Laser facial resurfacing and laser peeling in Kyiv
Fine wrinkles, pigment spots, enlarged pores and uneven texture appear in the upper layers of the skin. That is why they are best addressed by a method that precisely renews those very layers.
Laser resurfacing on the Fotona system is performed with an Er:YAG erbium laser. It vaporises a microscopic layer of skin in a “cold” way, with almost no heating of the surrounding tissue. The doctor sets the depth: from a light laser peel for radiant skin to deep resurfacing for wrinkles and texture.

What laser facial resurfacing removes
Resurfacing renews the upper layers of the skin, so it works on everything visible on its surface.
- Fine wrinkles – around the lips, on the forehead, cheeks and at the corners of the eyes.
- Pigmentation – sun and age spots, uneven complexion.
- Enlarged pores – the skin becomes denser and pores less visible.
- Uneven texture – roughness, “tired” texture, signs of photoageing.
- Dull complexion – after the treatment the skin looks fresh and radiant.
The advantage of the erbium laser is its ability to perform controlled, ultra-precise ablation with minimal thermal damage.
Types of laser resurfacing and peeling
The depth and mode are chosen for the goal and for how much recovery time you are ready to set aside.
- Light laser peel
Renews the most superficial layer. The skin becomes smooth and radiant. Redness passes within a few hours.
- Hybrid peel
SuperSMOOTH® One pulse first heats the deeper layers and then performs a light peel. Texture and firmness improve in a single treatment.
- Fractional resurfacing
The laser treats the skin in micro-dots, leaving untouched tissue between them. Deep action with faster healing.
- Deep resurfacing
Full renewal of the upper layers for pronounced photoageing and wrinkles. The strongest effect, recovery of about a week.
Laser peel or chemical peel
Both methods renew the skin, but the laser gives the doctor more control over depth.
| Criterion | Er:YAG laser peel | Chemical peel | Mechanical dermabrasion |
|---|---|---|---|
| Depth control | Precise, down to the micron | Depends on the acid and exposure time | Depends on the specialist’s hand |
| Effect on collagen | Heat stimulates new collagen | Moderate | Moderate |
| Uniformity | Equal energy at every point | Uneven areas possible | Uneven areas possible |
| Recovery | From a few hours to a week, depending on depth | From a few days to 2 weeks | 1–2 weeks |
How laser skin resurfacing works
- The doctor examines the skin and chooses the type and depth of the treatment
- The skin is cleansed and, if needed, an anaesthetic cream is applied
- The eyes are protected with goggles
- The laser covers the area in even passes; you feel warmth and tingling
- A soothing product is applied after the treatment
Care after a laser peel
- Don’t pick off flakes and crusts
- Apply SPF 50 daily
- Use gentle restorative skincare
- Avoid saunas, pools and tanning while the skin heals
- No other peels or scrubs for 2–3 weeks
How many laser resurfacing sessions are needed
After deep resurfacing, one session is often enough. Light and hybrid peels are usually done as a course of 3–4 sessions 3–4 weeks apart.
The skin looks fresher as soon as the redness fades. New collagen keeps forming for several months, so texture and firmness continue to improve.
The best time for laser resurfacing is autumn and winter, when the sun is less active. To remove scars, there is a separate treatment – scar and stretch mark treatment.

Frequently asked questions about laser resurfacing and peeling
How is laser resurfacing different from a laser peel?
It is the same method at different depths. A laser peel renews the most superficial layer and needs almost no recovery. Resurfacing goes deeper, so it smooths wrinkles and texture more strongly, but the skin needs a few days to heal.
Is laser facial resurfacing painful?
A light peel feels like warmth and tingling. Before fractional and deep resurfacing an anaesthetic cream is applied, so the treatment is comfortable.
How long is recovery after laser resurfacing?
After a light peel, redness passes within a few hours. After fractional resurfacing the skin is red and flaky for 3–5 days, after deep resurfacing about a week.
When is the best time for a laser peel?
Autumn and winter are best, when the sun is less active. In summer the treatment is only possible with strict SPF 50 protection and no tan.
Can laser resurfacing be done on the neck, décolleté and hands?
Yes. These areas show age and sun spots early, so they are often treated together with the face. The doctor selects a separate mode for the thinner skin of the neck and décolleté.
Who is laser resurfacing contraindicated for?
The treatment is not performed during pregnancy and breastfeeding, with oncological diseases, active herpes or skin inflammation, a fresh tan, a tendency to keloids, or while taking isotretinoin and photosensitising medication.
