Texture
Skin texture is one of those concerns that is hard to put into words but immediately obvious in certain lighting or photographs. It shows up as roughness, bumpiness or an uneven surface that prevents the skin from looking smooth and healthy. The causes range from congestion and sun damage to collagen loss and scarring, and the right treatment depends entirely on what is driving it in your case.
FAQs on Texture
The most common causes are a buildup of dead skin cells, enlarged or congested pores, acne scarring, sun damage and the gradual loss of collagen that comes with aging. Identifying the primary driver helps determine the most effective treatment approach.
Yes. SofWave and microneedling both improve skin texture with minimal to no downtime. For patients with more significant texture concerns, treatments with a short recovery period tend to deliver more noticeable results.
It depends on the treatment. Resurfacing treatments like Fotona Microlaser Peel and CO2 Laser produce visible improvement relatively quickly as the skin renews, while collagen stimulating treatments like microneedling and Sofwave deliver more gradual but longer lasting results.
This depends on the severity of your texture concerns and the treatment we recommend. Some patients see significant improvement after a single session, while others benefit from a course of treatments.
Results from collagen stimulating and resurfacing treatments can be long lasting, but ongoing sun exposure and the natural aging process will continue to affect texture over time. Periodic maintenance treatments and daily sunscreen help preserve what we achieve together.
