Laser Skin Resurfacing Treatment Guide
Your Guide to Laser Skin Resurfacing Treatments
Due to recent medical advancements, there is now a treatment that can get rid of almost anything. From severe sun damage to noticeable scars, many of your body tissues can be removed with the right lasers.
Ā
Here is a short guide to laser skin resurfacing treatments.
Anti-Redness Treatments
Often referred to as vascular lasers, anti-redness lasers are generally used to treat the red areas of the body.
Ā
The lasers can treat the following types of conditions, red moles, rosacea, and spider veins. They can also treat stretch marks and superficial bruises.
Ā
These types of lasers can get rid of blood vessels, which are often the components that are causing those conditions.
Ā
A treatment that involves anti-redness lasers will be a little painful, but there wonāt be much downtime. The good news is that there is little risk involved in this treatment.
Pigment-Pulverizing Treatments
Pigment-pulverizing lasers are great treatments for nearly all skin tones.
These types of lasers are often equipped with picosecond and Q-switched lasers.
Ā
With this unique combination, pigment-pulverizing lasers can usually remove severe age spots, tattoos, and sun damage.
Ā
The good thing about pigment-pulverizing lasers is that they are painless. During this treatment, it usually just feels like rubber bands are snapping against the body.
Ā
Often, a patient will receive lidocaine and numbing cream.
Ā
Pigment-pulverizing lasers typically only result in a few days of downtime.
Non-Ablative Resurfacing Treatments
There are several non-ablative lasers, one of which is known as baby fractional lasers. Such lasers are designed to achieve only subtle improvements.
Ā
Picosecond lasers, on the other hand, can get rid of bigger issues like noticeable wrinkles, fine lines, and scars.
Ā
The Fraxel Dual is a non-ablative treatment that is perfect for improving severe UV damage on the body. As a stronger fractional treatment, the Fraxel Dual can remove UV damage on the hands, feet, face, and chest.
Ā
Many non-ablative fractional lasers require ibuprofen and topical numbing beforehand.
Ā
After receiving a non-ablative treatment, you can expect to experience about a week of recovery.
Ablative Treatments
Contrary to non-ablative lasers, ablative resurfacing lasers typically produce extremely dramatic results even after one treatment.
Ā
The two primary types of ablative lasers are Sciton Profractional and Fraxel Repair. These lasers produce dramatic results by renewing the skinās collagen with much stimulation.
Ā
These excellent lasers have been shown to treat a wide variety of conditions including significant sun damage, noticeable scars, severe wrinkles, and much more.
Ā
Before receiving this extremely effective treatment, youāll probably be given numbing cream to encourage a smooth procedure.
Ā
In order to ensure a great recovery, itās recommended that you take at least a week off work and other everyday activities. Most patients will experience some discomfort from the surgery, which may include swelling, reddening, and crusting.
