What is Laser resurfacing/MiXto?
MiXto is a laser resurfacing treatment for the neck, face, chest, hands, and arms. This treatment works on all skin types and is great to treat signs of aging. Not only can this treatment rejuvenate the skin, it can also address pigmentation problems, large pores, wrinkles, acne scars, skin lesions, sun damage, and more.
How Does Laser Resurfacing Work?
MiXto is a fractional laser, meaning it removes columns of skin instead of the entire skin surface. These micro injuries stimulate the production of collagen in the skin, treating skin irregularities and rejuvenating the overall complexion. Most patients only require one treatment, though individuals with deeper wrinkles may require two or more.

Laser resurfacing/MiXto Results
After this cosmetic treatment, most patients can return to work the next day, depending on the work and the patient’s lifestyle. Most patients need 4-5 days to fully recover. Patients can expect to experience redness and swelling the next day, with peeling during the third and fourth days. After the skin has peeled, patients can see new, rejuvenated skin underneath.
