What is Laser Skin Resurfacing?

Laser skin resurfacing is an exciting medical procedure which corrects the effects of the sun, wind and time.

Physicians around the world use the pinpoint accuracy of advanced C02 (carbon dioxide) lasers to repair damaged skin. Laser skin resurfacing reduces wrinkles without scalpels or stitches. The laser emits an intense beam of energy that heats and vaporizes tissue instantaneously. It is so precise that the normal surrounding tissue is not effected.

As your doctor guides the laser’s beam over the damaged or wrinkled skin, it gently removes the outer layers. Fine lines and wrinkles around the mouth and eyes are smoothed. Deep creases and frown lines will be softened and acne scars are minimized. Once the outer layer of skin has been removed, the new skin beneath is softer, smoother with a more youthful appearance
