I love my skin!
Lasers represent a significant advance in dermatology and dermatologic surgery. Their range of applications, relatively short recovery time, and unmatched precision have brought new levels of treatment results. Short pulses of light remove skin tissue to improve the appearance of wrinkles, scars, blemishes, discoloration, blood vessels, and sun damage, as well as the skin’s overall tone and texture.
Ideal candidates for laser skin resurfacing should be healthy, have a positive attitude, and understand the procedure’s risks and benefits.
Additionally, the best candidates may struggle with:

The Marmur Medical team has assembled the industry’s leading laser technologies to give you the results you deserve. Our specialists use several high-powered lasers, each delivering a specific wavelength of light to achieve different results for different conditions. Dr. Marmur has treated over 10,000 cases with laser surgery and continually seeks out the very best laser rejuvenation methods available.
Some of our top laser treatment options include:
Clear + Brilliant Touch is a gentle laser treatment clinically proven to fight the effects aging has on skin and give you smoother skin with a radiant, youthful glow.
The results often include:
Clear + Brilliant Touch creates hundreds of thousands of microscopic treatment zones in the upper layers of the skin, thus replacing damaged skin with new, healthy-looking tissues. Because Clear + Brilliant Touch is a gentle treatment, there is minimal to no downtime and little swelling—just some redness and a few days of a sandpaper-like texture that clears to leave behind smooth and revitalized skin.
Fraxel DUAL uses safe, fractional laser technology to restore your skin’s beautiful glow.
When administered by the Marmur Medical team, Fraxel can provide:
Fractional laser technology does what its name implies: it pinpoints the laser to only a fraction of the skin. The pinpoints are closely spaced to ensure evenness of results, but because healthy skin is preserved around each point, there is little downtime, and the skin typically heals quickly.
Marmur Medical offers Fraxel DUAL, which has two wavelengths: the deep-penetrating 1550 for rebuilding collagen and repairing damaged skin and the 1927 for removing extra pigmentation and boosting collagen and elastin production. We typically recommend a series of treatments for the best results.
HALO is the world’s first Hybrid Fractional Laser. It combines non-ablative and ablative laser technology to create controlled coagulation zones into precise depths. This groundbreaking method promotes new collagen and elastin while improving the texture and tone of the skin.
The HALO Laser offers many exceptional benefits, including:
HALO has many settings, allowing us to customize your treatment to address your distinct concerns. With HALO, you can see both long-term and immediate results. The device strengthens the skin’s foundation by emitting heat into the skin’s deeper layers, thickening and lifting it into a smoother, clearer, and brighter appearance. Want to learn more?

With so many factors in play, each patient will experience different results after a laser treatment. Your outcome depends on the concerns you are addressing, the type of laser you have chosen, your body’s ability to heal, and more.
However, we recommend that all patients follow the post-procedure care instructions below to give themselves the best chance of healing well.
Our MMSkincare Post-Laser Revive Bundle has been created for your ongoing post-treatment skincare.
We invite you to visit one of our NYC locations to meet with one of our team members. Here, you can see how laser skin treatments can give you the skin you deserve to enjoy. If this treatment is not right for you, we can also review your other options, such as Botox®, dermal fillers, laser peels and deep laser resurfacing, and more.

Patients often notice a difference in just two treatments. However, the best results are often seen after a series of 4-6 treatments. Our team will help you develop a plan that works best for you.
You should begin to notice results within one week of your first treatment. Your skin will start to feel softer, look brighter, and show a more even tone.
This will depend on your particular issues and how well you care for your skin afterward. Many patients enjoy enduring results with the right skin care routine.
You may experience some minor side effects like slight swelling or redness in the treatment area. This is expected and indicates that the treatment is working. Most patients do not report any pain.
Avoid sun exposure, tanning, or using any self-tanning products for at least 7-14 days before and after treatment. Also, stop using retinol products for a week prior to and following your Clear + Brilliant treatment.
As sweating can irritate skin and cause itching, strenuous exercises or activities should be avoided for at least the first 24-48 hours following treatment for most patients.
Clear + Brilliant treatments require minimal downtime. Patients may experience some redness in the treated areas for a few hours. However, you can expect dryness as the skin sheds in tiny columns over the following 1-2 weeks. This process is barely visible but can feel like sand on the skin. MMSkincare Essentials like Revive, Repose, and Rescue are formulated to optimize this collagen building process. We highly recommend using the Revive hydrogel masks daily for 4 days for 20 minutes for an incredibly good healing experience. Sasha Suncare Mineral face lotion and body SPF 50 are the perfect texture and strength to protect your skin year round.
Results should show in 1-2 sessions for pigment issues, while wrinkles or acne scarring should show in 3-5 sessions. For both wrinkles and acne, we recommend spacing out sessions four weeks apart. For sun damage, it’s often recommended to schedule sessions 6-8 weeks apart. We’ll help you determine the right approach when you meet with us in a consultation.
The extent of your results depends on your particular issues and how well you care for your skin afterward. Many patients enjoy enduring results with the right skin care routine.
Expect pinkness, swelling (like a hive), bronzing, and cayenne pepper–colored pinpoint specks for up to a week on the face, two weeks on the neck and chest, and two to six weeks on arms and legs. Usually, there is no pain afterward.
Approximately 60 minutes before treatment, your skin will be cleansed and treated with a topical anesthetic. Typically, Fraxel DUAL treatments take 20-30 minutes to treat the face. However, the treatment time will depend upon other areas to be treated.
Pre-treatment products should include Revive serum every morning, Repose serum every evening, and for breakout prone areas, Balance serum twice daily. Avoid sun exposure, tanning, or using any self-tanning products for at least 4 weeks before treatment. You should also stop using retinol or glycolic acid products for 2 weeks before treatment. One week before treatment, avoid alcohol, aspirin, and other blood-thinning medications or supplements. After your Fraxel Dual treatment, you can expect dryness as the skin sheds in tiny columns over the following 1-2 weeks. This process is barely visible but can feel like sand on the skin. MMSkincare Essentials like Revive, Repose, and Rescue are formulated to optimize this collagen building process. We highly recommend using the Revive Serum generously to all areas of red or pink skin several times a day to maximize your skin healing and redness reduction; apply the Repose Serum to all areas every evening covered by the essential Rescue cream for extra soothing moisturization; use the Revive hydrogel masks daily for 4 days for 20 minutes for an incredibly good healing experience. Last, Sasha Suncare Mineral face lotion and body SPF are perfect to add to your skincare kit to protect your skin year round. If you experience pink acneiform bumps after fractional laser treatments, this is considered a sterile folliculitis where tiny hair follicles are inflamed. Add to your routine the MMBalance serum twice daily to control these areas of breakouts.
Halo laser treatments often show dramatic results with just 1-2 treatments. However, your results and treatment schedule will depend on the type and extent of your concerns, as well as your body’s natural healing abilities.
This depends on your particular issues and how well you care for your skin afterward. Many patients enjoy enduring results with the right skin care routine.
Minor swelling and redness may occur, but this is normal and should alleviate as your body heals naturally. Most patients report minimal discomfort throughout the entire process.
For most patients, sweating can irritate skin and cause itching, strenuous exercise or activities should be avoided for the first 2-48 hours following treatment.
Avoid wearing makeup for at least 24-48 hours following treatment. Remove the make up with a gentle cleanser such as MMSkincare Luscious Lotion cleanser with clementine antioxidants and immediately replenish your skin barrier with MMRevive Serum, containing healing aloe, moisturizing hyaluronic acid, peptides and post-procedure ingredients in the Dynamic Essence ™ .
As with all lasers and IPL/BBL light treatments, avoid sun exposure, tanning, or using any self-tanning products for at least 2 weeks before treatment. You should also stop using retinol products for a week prior to treatment unless specifically prescribed by us when, for example, we feel it will improve your results or prevent post laser hyperpigmentation. Pre-treatment products should include Revive serum every morning, Repose serum every evening, and for breakout prone areas, Balance serum twice daily.
