What Are Laser Treatments?
Laser treatments deliver light-based energy to target and correct an array of dermatological issues. They are noninvasive and require little to no downtime.
Types of Laser Treatments
Laser resurfacing treatments are designed to rejuvenate the face, décolleté, and neck by creating microscopic injuries in the skin.
This controlled thermal damage initiates a wound healing effect and stimulates collagen and elastin synthesis. Consequently, skin is remodeled from the inside out and produces a more youthful and vibrant appearance.
Pigmentary laser treatments target melanin in the skin or follicles and may be used for hair removal, sun spots, melasma, or other forms of discoloration.
Vascular lasers focus on hemoglobin found in red blood cells and can address broken blood vessels, cherry angiomas, and rosacea.
What Issues Can Lasers Address?
Laser treatments utilize cutting-edge technology to treat sun spots, fine lines, wrinkles, scars, rosacea, broken blood vessels, skin laxity, uneven tone, rough texture, congested pores, and acne.
They can also remove tattoos and eliminate unwanted hair from the face and body.
