One of the most exciting and rewarding things about being a dermatologist at our Dallas Center for Dermatology & Aesthetics is our extensive skincare treatment menu. We’re known for customizing treatment plans to meet the specific needs of each patient, something that isn’t possible at practices with more limited selections. With so many options available, we pride ourselves on helping each patient find the perfect solution for their skin—because no two complexions (or concerns) are alike.
In this post, we’ll break down some of the most popular cosmetic dermatology treatments we offer—like laser skin resurfacing and microneedling—explaining what they do, who they’re best for, and what results you can expect. Plus, we’ve added a fun interactive quiz to help you pinpoint which treatment could be your skin’s perfect match.
Why Consultations Matter
Beyond providing a wide range of choices, our board-certified dermatologists also have the expertise to know which treatment or combination of treatments best suits certain skin types and conditions. While this post offers a general overview to help you explore your options, nothing replaces a personalized consultation to determine how to achieve the most visible, long-term results.
Fraxel® Skin Resurfacing
Best for: Fine lines, sun damage, pigmentation, mild skin laxity, and acne scars
Downtime: 3–5 days (Fraxel DUAL), longer for Fraxel re:pair
Number of treatments: 3–5 (re:store) or 1–2 (re:pair)
Fraxel treatments stimulate collagen production and resurface the skin with precision. We offer:
- Fraxel DUAL: A non-ablative laser that improves skin tone, texture, and pigmentation with minimal recovery. Ideal for busy lifestyles.
- Fraxel re:pair®: A more aggressive, ablative treatment that tackles deeper wrinkles and more advanced signs of aging with dramatic results.
Patients often notice a smoother texture, more even tone, and youthful radiance within weeks.
IPL Photofacial
Best for: Age spots, redness from rosacea, broken capillaries, and sun-related pigmentation
Downtime: Minimal (some redness or mild swelling)
Number of treatments: 3–5 sessions for best results
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) uses short bursts of broad-spectrum light to target multiple skin concerns at once. It’s a go-to solution for brightening and evening out skin tone without interrupting your daily routine. While lasers can treat specific skin concerns in isolation, an IPL photofacial can address them simultaneously.
Laser Skin Resurfacing
Best for: Wrinkles, deep sun damage, skin texture issues, scars
Downtime: 7–10 days
Number of treatments: Often just one
Our advanced laser technology penetrates the deeper layers of skin to erase years of damage and stimulate collagen production. You’ll experience significant improvement in a single session, making it ideal for those seeking more transformative results. A more intense laser skincare treatment is a good choice for patients concerned about uneven skin color, wrinkles, scarring, and sun damage.
Microneedling
Best for: Uneven texture, early signs of aging, acne scars, enlarged pores
Downtime: Mild redness for 1–3 days
Number of treatments: 3–6 for optimal results
Our Dallas practice uses Collagen P.I.N., Agnes Precision RF, and Scarlet SRF devices to trigger your body’s natural healing process and boost collagen and elastin production. These substances are the foundation of smooth, tight, youthful-looking skin. Microneedling works by creating precise, microscopic channels at various depths of the skin, signaling your skin to regenerate, while the addition of radiofrequency (RF) energy adds a tightening effect.
For even better results, we often combine microneedling with laser treatments or apply topical serums immediately after to maximize absorption.
