Laser Skin Treatments

Laser treatments provide a number of aesthetically enhancing benefits to patients with various skin imperfections. The most advanced laser technologies utilize a concentrated beam of light to enable doctors and surgeons to target specific unwanted, diseased, or otherwise damaged cells without harming the surrounding tissues. Laser skin treatments can improve the following conditions: acne, surgery, trauma, and burn scars, fine lines and wrinkles, sun damage, stretch marks, brown spots, uneven or irregular pigmentation, overall skin tone, unwanted hair removal, and more.

Laser Techniques: Improve Skin

There are several specific lasers that can achieve these aesthetic results. Laser skin treatments, like the CO2 and YAG, are most efficient in reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and providing overall skin rejuvenation. These and similar laser treatments utilize light pulsed technology to stimulate the skin’s natural collagen production. Patients who undergo these procedures may experience some degree of redness, swelling and oozing for a short time after the procedure.

Some laser techniques, such as Fotofacial are most efficient at improving the symptoms of Rosacea, fine lines and wrinkles, and delivering overall skin rejuvenation. These laser treatments do not require general anesthesia or any downtime. Younger patients with the first signs of aging and those with milder skin damage can also reap the benefits of these treatments.

Laser treatments can also be used to reduce the appearance of scars caused by acne, physical trauma, burns, and stretch marks. Because lasers can target specific layers of skin at specific treatment sites, these procedures can be highly successful at improving these conditions. Hypopigmentation caused by medical conditions, physical trauma, and other factors can also be improved with lasers, particularly the B-Clear and Relume laser techniques.

Laser Treatments For Unwanted Hair

Laser treatments can also be used to remove unwanted hair from sites all over the body. This cosmetic technique is one of the few options available to permanently eliminate unwanted hair. This procedure targets the pigment in the follicles, causing hair to fall out and as well as halting the growth process. Typically a few treatments will be necessary to achieve the desired results.

There are different risks and benefits associated with each of the laser treatments. Some procedures require multiple treatments to achieve the desired temporary or permanent results. The cost of procedures varies based on a number of factors.
