What are Laser treatments used for?

Laser treatments are often used for skin resurfacing procedures. Specialized laser treatments can target a wide range of common skin concerns and issues. At Skincredible Dermatology, we recommend and use a variety of laser treatments for many different skin concerns such as signs of aging, sun damage, scars, stretch marks, wrinkles, acne, pigmentation, and more. 

Laser treatments are a safe and effective way to get smoother, blemish-free, and healthier-looking skin. Unlike invasive surgeries, laser treatments are minimally-invasive and often involve little pain and downtime. Patients can usually carry on with their day-to-day activities immediately following their in-office procedure. 

Our team of physicians at Skincredible Dermatology are experts in skin resurfacing and laser procedures. With many different types of lasers, the Skincredible team will consult with you on your concerns to find the most beneficial solution for your skin.

Key Benefits of Laser Skin Resurfacing:

• Improve the Appearance of Sun Damage, Redness, and Rosacea
• Diminish Acne Scarring
• Reduce Appearance of Moles and Birthmarks
• Correct Spider Veins and Stretch Marks
• Correct Hyperpigmentation and Dark Spots
• Reduce Appearance of Fine Lines and Deep Wrinkles
  

How do the lasers work?

Many laser technologies use low-level light or heat to repair and correct the skin’s surface layer. 

The heat of the laser triggers the body’s natural response to repair cells and increases collagen production. Because there are low levels of heat and wavelengths, these treatments provide impressive results and without damaging the skin or requiring much recovery.

How many treatments should I get?

After a laser skin treatment, many patients notice results immediately. While laser resurfacing does not yield permanent results, our treatments’ effects can last months to years. Most patients require three to four treatments to achieve optimal results. The length of time between your laser treatments will depend on the area being treated and your unique skin type and concerns. 

Our team of physicians at Skincredible Dermatology will discuss your recommended treatment plan and determine the correct number of laser treatment sessions required to address your skin concerns and goals.
