Waterlase is designed to be gentler than traditional lasers, using a unique combination of water, air, and laser energy to resurface the skin with minimal discomfort. Most patients describe the sensation as a light tingling or warmth. A topical numbing cream is applied beforehand to ensure comfort during treatment.

Benefits
Backed by trusted clinical studies, patients experience improvements in skin texture, tone, and a reduction in wrinkles and fine lines. Here are just a few reasons why you should choose the Waterlase Laser for facial rejuvenation in Hilton Head.
Non-Invasive Treatment
Laser resurfacing gently renews the skin without the need for surgery, injectables. Achieve beautiful and natural results with without even the mention of incisions or needles.
Long Lasting Results
While not permanent, laser skin resurfacing delivers longer-lasting results than many non-surgical treatments. Collagen stimulation continues to smooth, firm, and brighten the skin over time.
Safe & Comfortable Experience
The Waterlase device utilizes a unique combination of laser energy and water that leads to a more comfortable resurfacing experience compared to other fractional laser technology.
Initial improvements can be seen in just a few days as the skin begins to renew, with full results developing over 2–4 weeks. Results can last several months or longer, especially with a healthy skincare regimen.
Each Waterlase session takes about 30–45 minutes, depending on the areas treated. It’s a quick, in-office procedure with impressive skin-renewing benefits.
Many patients see noticeable improvement after just one session, but a series of 2–3 treatments may be recommended for deeper concerns such as wrinkles, scars, or uneven texture. Your provider will create a personalized plan during your consultation.
Yes. Waterlase can be used on the entire face or focused on specific areas like the forehead, cheeks, around the eyes, or mouth. We’ll tailor your treatment plan to your individual concerns, such as fine lines, uneven tone, or texture.
Absolutely. Results can be extended with proper skincare, hydration, daily sun protection, and occasional maintenance treatments. Using medical-grade products and avoiding sun exposure will help preserve your smoother, brighter complexion.
Waterlase typically offers a faster recovery than traditional resurfacing lasers. You may experience mild redness, flaking, or tightness for a few days, but most patients can return to daily activities quickly with minimal disruption.
Waterlase is safe for many skin types and ideal for those looking to improve fine lines, dullness, uneven tone, enlarged pores, or mild scarring. It may not be suitable for those with active skin infections, recent sunburns, or very dark skin tones. We’ll evaluate your skin during your consultation to ensure it’s the right fit.
