What Is the Refresh Laser Facial?
The Refresh Laser Facial is a targeted, results-driven laser treatment designed to revitalize tired, dull, or uneven skin — delivering a visible glow boost with minimal downtime. At Shay Maz Aesthetics & Wellness in Buffalo, NY, this treatment is a go-to choice for clients who want to address the cumulative effects of sun exposure, aging, and environmental stress on their complexion without committing to a lengthy recovery process.
Using precise laser energy, the Refresh Laser Facial works on two levels: on the surface, it targets pigmented lesions, sun spots, and redness to even out skin tone; and in the deeper dermis, it triggers a collagen-stimulating response that gradually firms and smooths the skin over time. The result is skin that looks genuinely refreshed — brighter, more even, and more youthful — after just a single session, with improvements building across a treatment series.
"My skin had so much sun damage from years of outdoor work. After just two Refresh treatments, the spots are dramatically faded and my skin tone is so much more even. People keep asking me what I'm doing differently!"
What Can the Refresh Laser Facial Treat?
The Refresh Laser Facial is an excellent treatment for clients throughout the Buffalo, NY area dealing with:
- Sun spots and age spots — breaking up areas of concentrated melanin caused by UV exposure
- Redness and rosacea — calming visible redness, flushing, and broken capillaries
- Uneven skin tone — improving overall complexion clarity and consistency of color
- Fine lines and surface wrinkles — stimulating collagen to soften early signs of aging
- Dull, fatigued-looking skin — restoring luminosity and natural glow
- Enlarged pores — improving pore appearance through skin tightening
- Mild texture irregularities — smoothing rough or slightly uneven skin surface
Your Refresh Laser Facial Experience in Buffalo, NY
Your appointment begins with a skin consultation and gentle cleanse to prepare the treatment area. We'll discuss your primary concerns and customize the laser settings and protocol to your specific skin tone and goals. A topical numbing cream may be applied for comfort, particularly for clients with sensitivity.
During treatment, you'll feel a mild snapping or warming sensation as the laser passes over the skin. The procedure is well-tolerated by most clients and typically takes 30 to 45 minutes for a full-face treatment. Immediately after, the skin may appear flushed and feel warm — similar to a mild sunburn — which resolves within a few hours to a day.
Pigmented spots often darken initially before naturally flaking away over the following 7 to 10 days — this is the intended response and a sign that the treatment is working effectively. We'll walk you through exactly what to expect and provide aftercare guidance to make healing as smooth as possible.
How Many Refresh Treatments Will I Need?
Many clients see noticeable improvement after a single Refresh Laser Facial, particularly for pigmentation concerns. For comprehensive skin renewal and lasting collagen improvements, a series of 3 to 5 treatments spaced 3 to 4 weeks apart typically delivers the best long-term results. Maintenance sessions once or twice a year help sustain your outcome and address any new sun damage.
Combining Refresh with Other Skin Treatments
The Refresh Laser Facial complements a broad range of treatments beautifully. Clients with deeper concerns such as acne scarring often pair it with the NanoFrax™ Acne Scar Facial, while those focused on overall skin quality may incorporate microneedling or NaturaPeel into their program. Our team will help you identify the ideal combination and sequence for your individual skin goals.
