Face Care

Laser is a critical component in creating a rejuvenated, clear, and youthful complexion. Through the professional selection of its various features; it is finely tuned to take into account skin tone, skin qualities, and the results desired. Through the application of specific wavelengths, delivered at precise dermal depths it can address many commonly found skin issues and aesthetic concerns (with full FDA approval).

In the case of two popular facial treatments; here is how it resolves skin indications.

Wrinkle Correction – Laser treatment for wrinkles does not involve surgery, injections, or active ingredient formulations; rather it relies wholly on light! Light is projected deep within dermal layers. Through the creation of micro wounds, internal skin structures are stimulated to rapidly turn over skin cells thus creating a new and improved dermal matrix. Treated skin is tightened, firmed, and smoothed.

Skin Resurfacing – Beyond fine lines and wrinkles laser will serve other skin resurfacing needs. These include sun damage, uneven pigmentation or texture, certain types of scarring, and specific varieties of veins. In each of these instances the mechanism of action varies slightly while remaining similar. Directed specific wavelengths of light are employed to cause damaged areas of skin to be broken down such that a rebuild does in fact occur. Scar tissue, hyper-pigmentation, exposed capillaries etc. are broken down by the exposure to the laser light. New cells are generated to replace older damaged dermis and overall surface appearance is brightened and restored.

Body Care

Beyond the facial complexion, Laser treatment has become an excellent way to address a variety of aesthetic concerns visible on other areas of the body. It offers the unique advantage that it can be utilized virtually on the whole body, safely.

Leg Veins – Unsightly leg veins can interfere with self-confidence, they can cause physical discomfort, and often influence and restrict clothing options.

Hair Removal – A classic and established use of Laser continues to provide smooth skin for millions of men and women who decide to be done with razors, hair removal chemicals, waxing and other torturous reoccurring hair removal rituals.

Targeted Special Application

Laser use extends to additional special applications. This full list is long and impressive (65+ FDA approved indication treatments). Here are just two of the valuable ways in which laser can be accessed for medical aesthetics.

Acne – Laser light is capable of preventing and halting certain types of acne. It works in three main ways; killing the bacteria that contributes to acne’s propagation, reducing oil on the skin surface, and working to reduce the size of the sebum (oil) glands themselves. It may also provide anti-inflammatory benefits alongside these others.

Tattoo Removal – Regardless of reason; if one desires to remove a tattoo, laser allows for this. Specific wavelengths are directed at individual tattoo colours deposited within the dermis. These break down larger ink particles into smaller pieces; allowing for it to become small enough to be reabsorbed by the body’s immune system. Visibility of the former tattoo image is decreased with each treatment. It is worth noting that this technology has come a long, to learn more please click here.
