Contour TRL

What is Contour TRL?

Contour TRL (Tunable Resurfacing Laser) is Sciton’s premier laser platform for performing skin resurfacing and rejuvenation treatments. This highly versatile and precise laser system allows for tailored treatments, ranging from shallow peels to deep resurfacing, depending on the patient’s specific skin concerns and goals. By removing the outer layers of damaged skin and stimulating collagen regeneration in the underlying layers, Contour TRL effectively improves skin texture, tone, and overall appearance, resulting in a more youthful and revitalized complexion.

Led by Dr. Samuel Hahn, Maryland Center for Facial Plastic Surgery is proud to offer the advanced Contour TRL laser treatment from Sciton. This advanced laser skin resurfacing solution can address a variety of skin concerns. We welcome patients from Columbia, Towson, Baltimore, and the surrounding areas of Maryland.

What Can Contour TRL Treat?

The Contour TRL laser system is designed to address a variety of skin conditions and concerns, including:

  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Deep wrinkles and folds
  • Acne scars and other types of scarring
  • Sun damage and age spots
  • Uneven skin texture and tone
  • Mild to moderate skin laxity
  • Actinic keratosis

 

Benefits of Contour TRL

Contour TRL (Tunable Resurfacing Laser) is primarily used for skin resurfacing and excellent for healing the effects of sun damage and stimulating collagen growth to stave off further signs of aging. 

This powerful laser delivers a youthful glow with its own set of unique benefits.

Customizable Treatment: Contour TRL allows for precise customization according to the patient’s skin type, condition, and desired results. The laser parameters can be adjusted to address specific concerns, such as wrinkles, scars, pigmentation issues, and overall skin texture.

Precision: Using light energy, the treatment delivers precise and controlled removal of the outer layers of skin, promoting collagen production and skin rejuvenation. This precision minimizes damage to surrounding tissues, resulting in faster healing and reduced downtime compared to older laser technologies.

Versatility: Contour TRL can be used on various areas of the body, including the face, neck, chest, and hands, making it versatile for addressing different skin concerns in different areas.

Stimulates Collagen Production: By removing damaged skin layers, the laser peel stimulates the body’s natural collagen production process. Collagen is essential for maintaining skin elasticity and firmness, leading to smoother, tighter skin over time.

Improves Skin Texture: Deeper treatments effectively reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and other textural irregularities, resulting in smoother and more youthful-looking skin.

Treats Pigmentation Issues: Contour TRL can target and reduce the appearance of sun spots, age spots, poor skin tone, and other types of pigment irregularities, resulting in a more even skin tone.

Minimal Downtime: While the extent of downtime may vary depending on the depth and aggressiveness of the treatment, Contour TRL typically offers shorter recovery times compared to older ablative laser resurfacing techniques. Patients can usually resume normal activities within a few days to a week post-treatment.

What Results Can I Expect from Contour TRL?

Following a Contour TRL treatment, patients will notice a significant improvement in the treated skin’s texture, tone, and overall quality as the damaged layers of skin are removed. Fine lines, wrinkles, scars, and pigmentation issues will be visibly reduced, revealing a smoother, clearer, and more youthful appearance.

While some noticeable improvements are seen immediately after the skin heals, the most significant improvements will develop over the following months as collagen growth occurs and healthy cells surface. Depending on the treatment’s depth, multiple sessions may be recommended to achieve the best possible outcome.

As new healthy skin cells form and surface over time, you will see a dramatic improvement in the tone, texture, and smoothness of your skin.

What is the Contour TRL Treatment Like?

 

Before the Contour TRL treatment, Dr. Hahn will apply a numbing cream to minimize discomfort during the procedure and you will be given protective eyewear.

The laser’s settings are then precisely adjusted to target your specific concerns, whether that involves a lighter peel for superficial issues or deeper resurfacing for more significant skin rejuvenation.

The treatment duration varies based on the extent of the area being treated and the depth of resurfacing required. Patients can expect to feel a warming sensation as the laser is applied, but discomfort is generally minimal due to the anesthetic and cooling techniques used during the procedure.

Am I a Good Candidate for Contour TRL?

Ideal candidates for Contour TRL treatments are individuals seeking significant improvement in skin texture, tone, and appearance without undergoing invasive surgery. This treatment is suitable for those with skin concerns such as deep wrinkles, scars, or significant sun damage.

During your consultation, our Aesthetician will evaluate your skin condition and skin type, discuss your cosmetic goals, and determine if Contour TRL is the best approach for achieving your desired outcome.

Is There Any Downtime After Contour TRL Treatments?

The downtime associated with Contour TRL treatments can vary significantly depending on the intensity of the laser resurfacing performed and the depth of treatment. For more superficial treatments, patients may experience mild redness and peeling for a few days.

Deeper resurfacing procedures may require a healing time of one to two weeks, during which the skin will heal and regenerate. Our Aesthetician will provide comprehensive aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth and effective healing process.

It is important to limit direct sun exposure and always use SPF to maintain the health of your skin and the longevity of your results.

How Much Does Contour TRL Cost?

The cost of Contour TRL treatments will vary depending on the individual’s specific needs and the areas being treated.
