Laser resurfacing is effective in treating wrinkles, spots and acne scars. Laser treatments produce a reorganization of the collagen layers of your own skin and result in a tightened and rejuvenated appearance.

Laser resurfacing can be used to treat the entire face or specific areas such as the eyelids and the upper lip. It may be performed alone or in combination with other surgical procedures such as facelift and blepharoplasty.

Treatment of fine lines and wrinkles are performed with carbon dioxide or erbium laser. Recovery time is approximately two weeks. For those who require quicker recovery times, the more gentle cool touch laser or IPL (intense pulsed light) is available.
