Laser Resurfacing Results Vs. Downtime

Hi - I am considering laser resurfacing, and I have a couple of questions: 1) What kind of results can I get for the least amount of downtime? 2) What kind of results can I get if I opt for a laser treatment with the highest amount of downtime? 3) Please give me some examples of lasers that would fall in the ranges described in questions 1 & 2. Also if there are any middle-of-the-road options, please let me know about those as well. Thanks, Diane.
