How it works

Free consultation and skin assessment
A personalised plan and a clear price
A course of three to five sessions for most people

Fractional laser resurfacing is a treatment for skin that has lost its smoothness: fine lines, wrinkles, rough texture, enlarged pores, sun damage and scarring. It gives more noticeable results than IPL, with a short recovery. If you live in Burry Port and want firmer, smoother skin, we offer it at our clinic in Llanelli.

Cowell St Skin & Hair Clinic is in the centre of Llanelli. We are a doctor-led clinic registered with Healthcare Inspectorate Wales, and we have been treating clients since 2016.

Every client starts with a free consultation. There’s no pressure and no sales pitch, just an honest view of what treatment can and can’t do for you.

What Is Fractional Laser Resurfacing?

Fractional laser resurfacing treats the skin in a grid of tiny, precise points, leaving healthy skin in between. Treating only a fraction of the surface at a time is what lets it heal so quickly. Being so close, Burry Port clients find it easy to fit sessions in.

The aim is to improve fine lines, wrinkles, uneven tone and texture, enlarged pores, acne scars and age spots.

It’s the option for people who want a bigger change and can allow a few days for the skin to recover. Cowell St Skin & Hair Clinic is doctor-led and registered with Healthcare Inspectorate Wales.

How the ResurFace Laser Works

As the skin heals, fresh new skin cells smooth the texture and tighten pores, while the heat stimulates new collagen and elastin that firm and tighten the skin over the following months. © Cowell St Skin & Hair Clinic.

Our ResurFace fractional laser emits a 2940nm wavelength, split by an optical beam splitter into thousands of microscopic beams, each around 350 microns wide.

Every beam makes a tiny column of controlled thermal damage, which prompts the skin to heal and produce new collagen. The untouched skin in between helps it recover quickly.

What Results to Expect

You can see a difference after one treatment, and the skin carries on improving as new collagen forms. For the best results we usually recommend a course of three to five sessions.

Resurfacing improves lines, texture and tone. It does not stop the skin ageing, and results vary from person to person. We will give you an honest view of what to expect at your consultation.

Recovery is short, and most people need only a few days. Fractional laser treatment is suitable for skin types up to Fitzpatrick type 3. Tanned skin cannot be treated, and that includes fake tan.

What You Can Expect from Treatment

Under 60 minutes: for a typical session
Comfortable for most: a mild burning sensation is possible
Few days’ downtime: plan a couple of quiet days
How many sessions: three to five for most people
Progressive results: skin gets firmer and smoother over time
Honest assessment: we’ll check your skin type before booking

Before and After Your Treatment

Before you come in

Come with the area clean: no make-up, perfume, deodorant, or body or face creams.
No real or fake tan on the area. Sunbeds and prolonged sun exposure are not allowed in the month before treatment, and any tan must fade completely before we can treat.
Use SPF 30 or higher on the area between treatments.
Tell us about any change to your medical history, and any medication you take, including anything bought from a chemist or herbalist.
Arrive in good time, so we can cool the skin first if needed.
We may charge for an appointment that cannot go ahead because of a tan or fake tan.

After each session

The area will look very red, like sunburn, and may be swollen. It will feel hot and tender for several hours. Redness and swelling can last a few days.
Use cold compresses to ease redness and swelling. If you use an ice pack, put it in a clean plastic bag and wrap it in a soft cloth. Do not put ice directly on the skin.
Sleep with your head raised on pillows to reduce facial swelling.
While the skin is still red, avoid heavy drinking, saunas and heavy exercise.
The skin will feel tight. Vaseline, a soothing serum or a gentle moisturiser can help for the first day or two. Test a small area first.
From day two or three the skin becomes flaky and looks bronzed. This lasts about five days and is a sign the skin is renewing. Do not pick at flaking or crusting.
After four to five days, once the redness and sensitivity have settled, you can use a very light exfoliator. Keep the skin well moisturised.
Avoid hot baths and showers for 24 hours, and cosmetics for about 48 hours. After that, mineral make-up is fine. Remove it gently with plenty of water.
Skin usually returns to normal by day seven to ten. Some flakiness can last up to 14 days.
Use SPF 30 or higher on the area between treatments and for at least one month after your last one. Sun on treated skin can cause sunburn and dark patches.
If the skin blisters, contact us straight away. Keep the area clean and dry, do not pick it, and do not use lotions or creams on open skin. Once healed, use a high-protection sunscreen on the area every day for 12 months.
