2. There are a lot of cosmetic options you
can choose from if you want to get rid
of acne scars, pigmentation and
wrinkles.
Laser skin resurfacing is only one of
the many popular choices of men and
women today.
3. Unlike other cosmetic options, laser
skin resurfacing uses a beam of
pulsating light to peel away the skin
layer by layer.
Peeling treatments use chemicals to
achieve this and could cause skin
irritations.
4. With the laser light doing the work,
there is no need for harsh chemical
and/or abrasive wheels.
Laser skin resurfacing is preferred
because of the reduced downtime and
recovery period.
5.
There are basically two types of laser used for this procedure:
the carbon dioxide laser resurfacing and Erbium laser, also known as
the Er:Yag.
6. The carbon dioxide laser resurfacing
method is performed in medical spa
Los Angeles and used for deep
wrinkles brought about by aging.
7. The eye region is one of the areas that
are treated with carbon dioxide laser
because it is ideal for reducing the
appearance of crow’s feet.
It vaporizes the skin layers and the
effect is a tightening of the skin.
8. On the other hand, the Er:Yag laser is
used for not-so-deep applications.
Younger people who seek help for acne
scars and other imperfections are
recommended to undergo this surgery.
9. It vaporizes less than the carbon
dioxide laser and achieves better
accuracy because plastic surgeon can
easily control it.
Even those with dark complexion can
benefit from Er:Yag laser.
10. Botox is still the number one
non-invasive cosmetic
procedure preferred
by men and women.
11. It also achieves good results
for wrinkles and fine lines
but it does not address
scars and imperfections.
12. Both types of procedures
allow patients to bounce back
in no time since the
recuperation period is very
short.
13. With an experienced surgeon
or medical practitioner to
administer the laser, there
would be less risk for
scarring.
