Skin rejuvenation is about improving how your skin performs as much as how it looks. At Lycia Thornburg, MD Dermatology, treatments are selected to address concerns like discoloration, texture changes, fine lines, and loss of elasticity through a comprehensive, customized plan. By focusing on overall skin quality and function, Dr. Lycia Thornburg and her team help support a clearer, smoother, and more refreshed appearance, one that feels consistent with your natural vitality.
Strengthen and Renew Your Skin Over Time
Skin rejuvenation is a strategic, science-driven approach to improving how your skin looks and functions over time. Rather than relying on a single treatment, it combines treatment modalities that boost collagen production, accelerate cellular turnover, and repair damage at the surface and deeper layers. By using targeted technologies and medical-grade skincare treatments, we help your skin repair itself, restore balance, and build stronger, more resilient tissue.

- Age spots and pigmentation concerns
- Dull, tired-looking skin

Your Skin Rejuvenation Treatment at Thornburg MD Dermatology
Your experience begins with a thoughtful consultation, during which our providers take the time to understand your skin, your concerns, and how your skin has changed over time. We look beyond the surface to evaluate concerns such as sun damage, texture irregularities, uneven skin tone, and overall health, and then build a comprehensive, personalized plan that may include a combination of treatments to support your skin’s long-term function.
Treatment
Your treatment is customized with a combination of technologies and medical-grade techniques tailored to your needs. After cleansing and preparing the skin, our providers may use laser or light-based devices, microneedling, or targeted resurfacing to create controlled micro-injury within specific layers. This stimulates collagen production and accelerates cellular turnover. Depth, energy levels, and technique are carefully adjusted to ensure natural-looking results.
Recovery
Recovery depends on the treatments used, but most patients experience mild redness, warmth, and sensitivity similar to a light sunburn for 24 to 72 hours. Some treatments may cause mild swelling, flaking, or pinpoint scabbing as the skin renews itself. Our providers will also guide you on gentle skincare, strict sun protection, and when to resume using your regular products. Makeup is often appropriate within one to three days, depending on the specific procedures.
Results
You may begin to notice early improvements in tone and radiance within the first one to two weeks, with continued enhancement as collagen rebuilds over several weeks to months. Your skin may appear smoother, clearer, and more even over time. The results can last for months, depending on your skin and treatment plan, but maintenance sessions are key to preserving the results. By supporting your skin over the long term, we help you achieve results that look natural and refined.
