The TRL Contour Treatment
Before your session begins, your skin will be cleansed, and a topical anesthetic may be applied to ensure comfort. Depending on the treatment depth, topical or local anesthetics may also be recommended. The TRL laser is then calibrated to target the specific layers of damaged skin with controlled precision. The treatment typically takes 30 to 60 minutes and can be used on the face, neck, chest, or hands.
Recovery & Results for TRL Contour
Recovery
TRL Contour treats the full surface of the skin, making downtime more significant than fractional treatments. You can expect initial redness, swelling, and a sensation similar to a sunburn for several days. As your skin regenerates, a protective barrier will form, followed by gentle peeling throughout one to two weeks. Patients typically return to normal routines within 10 to 14 days. We will provide a personalized recovery plan to support optimal healing and protect your results.
Results
You will notice a smoother texture, improved skin tone, and softened lines as your healing progresses. Over the following weeks and months, collagen remodeling continues beneath the surface, progressively improving skin firmness and clarity. Many patients experience noticeable results after a single session, and ongoing skincare and sun protection maintenance can help extend those benefits for years.

Contact UsWhat is TRL Contour?
TRL Contour by Sciton is an ablative laser resurfacing treatment that precisely removes targeted layers of skin. Unlike fractional lasers, which leave untreated skin, TRL Contour ablates the entire surface within the treatment area, allowing for lines, creases, and discoloration correction. Because the laser settings can be adjusted to the exact depth required, this treatment is ideal for delicate areas like around the eyes and mouth, and full-face rejuvenation.
Candidates for TRL Contour
TRL Contour is well-suited for individuals seeking significant improvement in skin aging, pigmentation irregularities, and textural concerns. It is particularly beneficial for patients with deep wrinkles, uneven tone, or scarring that may not respond to less intensive treatments. Our team will evaluate your skin during your consultation at Maffi Plastic Surgery in Scottsdale and determine the ideal approach to help you achieve visible results.
