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 treat 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 the patient satisfaction index to an all-time high. For photos, click here. |
