What is Contour TRL?

Contour TRL (Tuneable Resurfacing Laser) is an advanced erbium laser skin-resurfacing technology offered at Marietta Plastic Surgery. It effectively treats various skin concerns, including dullness, uneven complexion, pigmentation issues, acne scars, rough texture, scarring, and wrinkles. By using laser energy, Contour TRL promotes the growth of fresh, new skin cells, resulting in rejuvenated, smoother, and clearer skin with minimal downtime compared to traditional CO2 laser resurfacing. This procedure aims to enhance overall skin appearance and texture, delivering impressive and lasting results.

How does Contour TRL work?

Contour TRL delivers precise laser energy to the skin’s surface, targeting the outermost layers. The erbium laser used in this treatment allows for controlled ablation of the skin, which removes damaged tissue and stimulates the body’s natural healing process. As the laser energy penetrates the skin, it triggers collagen remodeling and new skin cell production.

This process involves the careful vaporization of the skin layers, which minimizes heat damage to surrounding tissues and reduces downtime. The depth of the treatment can be finely adjusted based on individual skin conditions and goals, ensuring a customized approach. The result is smoother, more even-toned skin with a reduction in pigmentation irregularities, scars, and wrinkles, providing significant rejuvenation and improved skin texture.

What Happens During the Contour TRL Session?

During your Contour TRL session, one of our expert plastic surgeons will begin by applying a topical numbing cream to ensure your comfort. The laser is then calibrated to the appropriate depth based on your skin’s needs. As the laser passes over your skin, it removes damaged outer layers while stimulating collagen production and new skin growth. The procedure typically takes fifteen to forty-five minutes, depending on the treatment area.

Contour TRL Treats:

  • Dull skin
  • Uneven complexion
  • Hypopigmentation and hyperpigmentation
  • Acne scars
  • Rough skin texture
  • Scarring
  • Fine lines and wrinkles

What is the Recovery Process Like?

After your Contour TRL session, you can expect some redness and swelling, similar to a sunburn, which typically subsides within a few days. Your skin will gradually peel, revealing fresh, new skin underneath. It is important to keep the treated area moisturized and protected from the sun. Most patients can resume normal activities within a week, although full healing and optimal results may take a few weeks. Our plastic surgeons will provide detailed aftercare instructions to ensure the best possible outcome.

When Will I See the Results?

You will begin to see results from your Contour TRL treatment within a few days as your skin starts to peel and reveal fresh, new cells. Full results typically appear after a few weeks. These results can last for several months to years, depending on your skin type and care. Maintaining a good skincare routine and protecting your skin from the sun will help prolong the benefits of the treatment. Regular follow-up sessions may be recommended to maintain optimal results.
