Improvements from Laser Skin Rejuvenation
Laser skin rejuvenation is a non-ablative treatment for skin imperfections that is gentler than laser resurfacing and, therefore, does not harm the surface of the skin. Board-certified facial plastic surgeon Dr. Adrian Yi uses the Sciton Profile™ laser to effectively perform a variety of improvements including:
- Resolving uneven skin color, including brown and red spots
- Resurfacing skin to improve texture
- Tightening, toning, and smoothing skin on the face, neck, hands, and other parts of the body
- Improving stretch marks and shallow surface scars
Some of Dr. Yi's patients choose a more dramatic improvement by combining laser rejuvenation with cosmetic surgery procedures, such as eyelid surgery or facelift, or non-surgical treatments such as injectable facial fillers or BOTOX® Cosmetic. During your private consultation, Dr. Yi will review available treatments and devise a personalized rejuvenation plan that is right for you.
How It Works
Laser rejuvenation heats the collagen beneath the skin, which improves existing collagen and stimulates further collagen production. The outer layer of skin is not affected, so there is no required healing time. The improvements continue to appear for about 3 to 6 months as the body produces more collagen, tightening the skin. Patients can optimize their results by having a series of 2 or 3 treatments spaced about a month apart.
