What Are the Laser Treatments Like?

Treatment with a laser is often performed by your physician immediately following an accurate diagnosis. Larger lesions may require treatment by a combination of laser and non-laser therapy. Often a small patch is performed prior to a full treatment. Some lesions may require multiple visits. Your doctor's state-of-the-art laser produces two types of laser beams which allow the physician to selectively treat various types of unsightly skin problems without damaging the surrounding normal tissue. The unique qualities of this new laser have greatly increased your physician's ability to treat you within the freedom of his or her office.

Collagen Treatments

Collagen is a natural protein that provides structural support throughout the body. In the skin, collagen adds texture resiliency and shape. Over time the collagen levels can decrease so an injection of collagen can replace or add to the existing structure to decrease fine lines and wrinkles.

Botox

Botox is a toxin which when used in small amounts has therapeutic values. Botox is a safe method of reducing wrinkles by weakening the muscles around the wrinkle which forces the skin to relax and eliminate the wrinkle.

CoolTouch

Thermescent Skin Treatment is a revolutionary, non-invasive process designed to combat the effects of aging. A CoolTouch handpiece combines a cooling cryogen spray, precisely controlled laser energy, and a thermal feedback sensor designed to treat subsurface tissue while preserving the outer skin. Treatment usually requires no anesthesia and no post-operative management. The Thermescent Skin Treatment is designated for people who want younger-looking and healthier skin.

Your doctor can also effectively treat other skin disorders with the laser such as age spots, freckles, and facial surface vessels.
