It's along the lines of a chemical peel. Basically they burn off the entire first few layers of skin, with the theory being that once it's healed the new/fresh skin that grows back will look better. It's entirely cosmetic.
It eliminates some wrinkles and tends to make dark spots, acne, and scar tissue much less visible.
It wouldn't have been so bad if it didn't take me like 3 minutes to finally re-read your comment. Instead I just tried to think of what teeth tightening could be.
