Laser Focused on Treating Your Concerns
Using precise beams of light, laser resurfacing is a minimally invasive to noninvasive procedure that can reduce wrinkles, acne scars, pigmentation, and sun damage. In order to understand how lasers work to heal your skin, we first need to understand the difference between ablative and non-ablative lasers.

Ablative Lasers
This category of laser works by removing dead cells and part of the epidermis (the outer layer of your skin) and heating the dermis (the middle layer of your skin), to promote production of the proteins that give support and structure to your skin. As the treated skin heals, the new skin that forms is smoother, clearer, and tighter.
Our Acu Pulse CO2 Ablative laser best treats:
- Uneven skin tone
- Sun-damaged skin
- Age spots
- Fine to moderate wrinkles
Because ablative lasers are so powerful, you can enjoy significant results. However, as your skin heals from this slightly harsher treatment, you may require more downtime than with non-ablative lasers.
Non-Ablative Lasers
These lasers don’t damage the outer layer of your skin. Instead, they deliver heat directly into the dermis and stimulate protein production and healing from within. At Bliss, we use the Candela Gentle Max Pro or the Alpha 808nm Diode non-ablative lasers to treat:
- Wrinkles
- Brown spots
- Minor scars
Although you may experience mild redness or swelling, non-ablative lasers rarely require recovery time, and any side-effects usually resolve after a few hours.

Results
Depending on your chosen treatment, you can see results within 2 to 4 weeks. Expect long-term results; however, yearly maintenance (one or two times) may be necessary. We want to remind you that if you’re fighting signs of aging, maintenance will always be required because, well, we just can’t stop aging.
Achieve Smooth, Radiant Skin
Whether you’re concerned with removing unwanted hair, treating signs of aging, or diminishing scars, lasers can help smooth your appearance and give you that extra boost of confidence. If you’re ready for rejuvenated skin, book a consultation with us for laser resurfacing in Oklahoma City.
