Laser resurfacing uses light pulses to remove thin layers of skin. The light turns to heat in the skin, vaporizing the cells. When the skin cells vaporize, new cells form and the skin regenerates. This type of treatment can reduce wrinkles and reveal newer, younger looking skin.
Laser Resurfacing Uses
Laser resurfacing is used for many different procedures, ranging from cosmetic to medical treatments. There are many types of laser resurfacing available, from mild surface treatments to deep skin treatments. Laser resurfacing is an ideal choice for those who want fast recovery, minimal bleeding and no incisions.
Some of the most common uses for laser resurfacing treatments include treating wrinkles, stretch marks, acne scars, keratosis, dark spots, and tattoo or hair removal. It can be used in conjunction with other procedures, such as liposuction, to tighten the skin after the fat removal.
