THE
LASER SOLUTION FOR SKIN DAMAGE
Are
you a candidate for facial rejuvenation,
also known as photofacials?
The answer is "Yes" if your skin
shows evidence of chronic exposure to the
sun's ultraviolet light.Physicians
call this condition "photodamage",
and the most obvious signs are coarsening
of skin texture, wrinkling, irregular pigmentation,
and enlarged blood vessels and pores.
How
do I know if I have photodamaged skin?
If you are over 30 years old and enjoy an
active lifestyle your skin is probably showing
signs of damage.
How
many treatments are required?
Typically several treatments are required
for full-face treatment. The average treatment
takes about 20 minutes. Results may become
apparent after a few treatments (usually
over 2 months).
How
does pulse dye laser treatment differ from
CO2 lasers, chemical peels, and dermabrasion?
Unlike CO2 lasers, dermabrasion or chemical
peels that remove the outer skin and require
significant healing time, the pulse dye
laser gently penetrates the skin without
damaging it.
What
will I look like after surgery?
Results will vary but you should expect
your skin to appear reddened. You can expect
to return to your normal activities immediately
with minimal precautions such as sunscreen.
