Cosmetic Laser Services in Rhode Island

Laser Skin Resurfacing
For time eternal men and women have worked to maintain a smooth youthful skin. Both
dermabrasion and chemical peels can reduce wrinkles by restoring skin elasticity. In the
1990’s cosmetic surgeons began using sophisticated skin lasers to precisely evaporate
the damaged skin. These lasers work best for fine lines around the eyes and mouth,
including crow’s feet and smoker’s lines. They can also improve some superficial scars,
such as those caused by trauma, acne, or chickenpox as well as some superficial skin
growths. The incidence of complications with laser is much less than dermabrasion or
chemical peels, boosting patient satisfaction to an all-time high. Click here to

Dr. Enzer uses the Lumenis Carbon Dioxide Ultrapulse Laser®, Fraxel® Restore Laser, and Lumenis® TotalFx Laser and has treated hundreds of patients over the last 20+ years. The Ultrapulse® Carbon Dioxide Laser was originally introduced in the early 1990's. For years doctors successfully rejuvenated skin with this laser. However, patients wanted quicker and easier healing. Therefore, fractionated laser technology came to the forefront around 2005. By leaving minute islands of skin intact between the computer-driven laser spots, the healing time is dramatically reduced and saftey improved, althewhile still providing proven results. Both the Fraxel® and TotalFx® are fractionated technology. click here to learn more about these lasers.

Laser Treatment of Spider Veins (Abnormal Blood Vessels), Tattoos and Skin Blemishes
Lasers have been used since the 1970’s to remove undesirable marks on the skin.
Technical advances have led us to the point where we can now predictably and safely
eliminate many surface skin problems. Telangiectasia (broken blood vessels), spider
veins, red scars, hemangiomas or vascular birthmarks, warts, solar lentignes (brown
spots), and tattoos are just some of the skin lesions which are successfully treated
with today’s state-of-the-art lasers. These procedures are performed in the office, and
more than one treatment session may be necessary. Dr. Enzer has treated over 1,000
patients and has over 20+ years of experience with these lasers. Click either Vascular or

Laser Hair Removal
In the course of only a few years technology has advanced to the point where laser can
permanently reduce unwanted body hair in most people. Compare this to the pain and
numerous treatments with waxing or electrolysis. Many people can achieve a long
lasting or permanent effect after only 3 to 4 treatment sessions. The treatments
are performed in a comfortable office setting, and may take only minutes depending on
the body area. Any area of the body can be treated, even large areas like the legs or the
back. Both men and women of any age, as young as teenagers, are candidates for this
amazing technology. For more information about laser hair removal, click here.

Dr. Enzer and his staff have performed hundreds of treatments, and have over 10 years experience with their Lumenis Lightsheer® laser. Experience and adequate training have become important issues now that spas or physicians not trained in treating skin problems are acquiring laser devices. Enzer & Associates, P.C. was the first group in Rhode Island to use the Lightsheer® laser, found to be the most successful of all hair removal lasers. We are the practice that the dermatologists and plastic surgeons go to for their skin laser needs.
