Laser Skin Rejuvenation

Laser skin treatments can tighten skin and help to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, acne scarring and pigmented lesions. The laser method can also help to stimulate the skin causing it to look smoother, healthier and fresher and can improve the general complexion. Furthermore, the laser procedure can target specific areas to promote the production of new collagen and cell repair.

Laser skin treatments tighten and rejuvenate the skin by targeting the problematic areas deep within it. The laser causes collagen within the skin to contract which consequently removes sun damaged tissue and stimulates the production of new, healthier skin cells and the production of fresh collagen in the skin. The laser works to plump the skin from below the surface whilst repairing photo-damage and other skin imperfections like wrinkled tissue in micro layers; it has great precision and can be used until the damaged skin has all but disappeared.

There are many different types of cosmetic lasers such as the Pixel laser and Erbium-YAG laser which can be used to treat different skin complaints. However, when it comes to laser therapy it is always best to speak to a professional as they will be able to tailor their advice to match your specific skin requirements and concerns.

Patients are required to have a consultation prior to having any treatment. Medical history and consent forms are to be completed within the consultation to confirm suitability for treatment. A patch test is also usually performed within the consultation process to confirm there will be no adverse skin reactions to the light. It is also a good idea to have photographs taken of the area before treatment so that all progress can be monitored.
