CONTOUR TRL

Contour TRL™ (Tunable Resurfacing Laser) is the gold standard for patients seeking dramatic transformation. Unlike lighter lasers that only brush the surface, Contour TRL safely removes fine lines and deep, stubborn wrinkles—including those "pesky" lines around the lips and eyes that other treatments often miss.

Performed at our Cincinnati, Ohio office, Contour TRL treatments are custom-tailored by Dr. Shahryar Tork to achieve your specific aesthetic goals and accommodate your timeline for recovery. No other non-surgical technology can turn back time as effectively as the Contour TRL.

• Recommended For: Deep wrinkles, surgical or acne scars, actinic keratoses, and severe sun damage.

• Downtime: Typically 4–7 days (depending on the depth of the peel).

Contour TRL: The Ultimate Solution for Skin Aging

As we age, the cumulative effects of sun damage and environmental pollutants take a toll on our skin, creating deep furrows and pigment irregularities. A laser peel is the most successful way to address these conditions.

While there are several types of lasers used for resurfacing, the Contour TRL is widely regarded by specialists like Dr. Tork as the safest and most effective laser available. Its "tunable" nature means it can be adjusted to be a light "NanoPeel" or a deep, ablative resurfacing treatment.

How Does Contour TRL Work?

The Contour TRL removes a precise layer of skin to a depth determined by Dr. Tork during your consultation. Because this laser utilizes micron-precision technology, we can treat your skin with the exact amount of energy needed—no more, no less. This precision allows for:

• Deep Wrinkle Correction: Even in difficult areas like the "smoker's lines" around the mouth and "crow's feet" around the eyes.

• Scar Revision: Smoothing out the edges of scars for a more uniform appearance.

• Total Texture Renewal: Removing sun spots and actinic keratoses to reveal fresh, healthy skin cells.

Contour TRL Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What makes Contour TRL different from other lasers?

Most lasers have a fixed depth or effect. Contour TRL is "Tunable," meaning Dr. Tork can precisely control the depth of ablation (removal) and coagulation (heating). This allows us to treat everything from surface pigment to deep structural wrinkles with a single device.

Is the treatment painful?

Because Contour TRL can reach deeper layers of the dermis to erase wrinkles, we prioritize patient comfort. Depending on the depth of your treatment at our Cincinnati office, we may use topical numbing, local anesthesia, or specialized cooling techniques to ensure a comfortable experience.

What is the recovery like?

Your skin will feel like a deep sunburn immediately after the procedure. Over the next 3 to 7 days, the outer layer of skin will gently peel away. Once the initial healing is complete, you will reveal "baby-soft" pink skin that will gradually fade to your natural tone, looking significantly smoother and more radiant.

How many treatments will I need?

One of the biggest advantages of Contour TRL is that it typically requires only one treatment to see dramatic results. While lighter lasers might require 4–6 sessions, the Contour TRL delivers a "one and done" transformation for most patients.

Who is the ideal candidate for Contour TRL in Cincinnati?

The ideal candidate is someone with noticeable skin laxity, deep wrinkles, or significant sun damage who can set aside about a week for social downtime. During your consultation, Dr. Tork will ensure your skin type is a good match for this high-precision ablative laser.

When will I see the final results?

You will see a noticeable difference as soon as the skin heals (about one week). However, because the laser stimulates deep collagen remodeling, your skin will continue to tighten and improve in texture for 4 to 6 months following the procedure.
