Laser Facial Resurfacing
Are your former years as a sun-worshipper now wreaking havoc on your face? Is your skin sun damaged? Do you have fine lines around your eyes, cheeks and mouth? Or has your complexion taken on a grayish or yellowish tone? Do you dream of having smooth, youthful skin once again?
Laser facial resurfacing may be the solution for you. A carbon-dioxide laser can remove the outer, damaged layers of your skin to allow tighter, younger-looking skin to grow in their place. It’s a relatively quick procedure that often takes just a few minutes (or over an hour depending on the size of the treatment area) and requires about two weeks’ recovery time.
There are many benefits to laser resurfacing (including higher precision to the target area and less post-operative pain) but it cannot take away deep wrinkles or eradicate sagging skin like other procedures can. Also, the effects are long lasting but not permanent since it cannot block aging or new wrinkles. Laser facial resurfacing is safe for use with other procedures and is often done in tandem specifically with facelifts or eyelid surgeries.
