Let’s be honest, creams and serums only go so far. If your skin feels dull no matter how many products you layer on, or if wrinkles and texture issues have taken over your once-glowing complexion, you’re not alone. That’s where Contour TRL steps in.
This skin-resurfacing laser treatment is designed for people who want real change, without surgery. Whether you’re looking to smooth fine lines or address years of sun damage, Contour TRL targets exactly what’s holding your skin back.
At Olympia Aesthetics, this treatment has become a client favorite for one reason: it works.
What Is Contour TRL?
Contour TRL (Tunable Resurfacing Laser) is a laser treatment that removes damaged skin layer by layer. The “tunable” part means the provider can adjust how deep the laser goes, tailoring the procedure to your skin’s needs, from a light polish to deeper resurfacing. This is ideal for targeting wrinkles, acne scars, uneven skin tone, and texture.
According to the American Society for Dermatologic Surgery, resurfacing treatments like TRL are among the most effective ways to improve skin texture and appearance.
How to Know It’s Time to Try Contour TRL
1. Your skincare isn’t cutting it
If you’ve been using quality skincare products for months and still feel stuck, it may be time for something more targeted. Over-the-counter options help maintain skin, but they can’t reach deeper layers where real change happens.
2. You see lines and wrinkles that weren’t there before
Wrinkles happen. But if you’re noticing lines that don’t soften with moisturizer or makeup, Contour TRL can help reduce them by promoting new collagen growth.
3. Your skin feels rough or uneven
Dead skin buildup and sun damage can cause your face to look and feel bumpy. TRL gently removes the layers causing these issues, leaving smoother, healthier-looking skin behind.
4. You’ve tried other treatments with limited success
If you’ve had facials, peels, or microneedling but didn’t get the results you were after, Contour TRL may be a better fit. It allows for deeper correction where other treatments stop.
5. You want real results without surgery
For those not ready to commit to invasive procedures, TRL offers serious improvement without cutting, stitching, or extended downtime. Most patients experience 5–7 days of healing with redness and peeling, but the trade-off is clearer, tighter skin that actually lasts.
Realistic Expectations and Recovery
Depending on how deep your treatment is, healing can range from a few days to over a week. You’ll likely experience redness, peeling, and sensitivity, but this is normal. Your provider will talk you through aftercare and provide detailed instructions for home.
Multiple studies, including those highlighted by the Cleveland Clinic, support laser resurfacing as a reliable method for improving skin firmness and texture.

FAQ: Contour TRL Laser Treatment
- How long do the results from Contour TRL last?
Results often last several years, especially with proper skin care and sun protection. Aging continues, but the improvement is long-lasting. - Is Contour TRL safe for darker skin tones?
It’s usually recommended for lighter skin, as deeper laser resurfacing can affect pigmentation. A consultation can help determine if it’s right for you. - Can I combine TRL with other med spa services?
Yes. It pairs well with HydraFacial or RF Microneedling once your skin has healed. Timing is key, so be sure to follow your provider’s recommendations. - What kind of downtime should I expect?
Depending on the depth of the treatment, downtime can range from 3 to 10 days. Redness and peeling are common but manageable. - Do I need multiple sessions?
Some people get the results they want from one session, while others may choose a series of lighter treatments for a gentler approach.
