Skin Rejuvenation

What is Skin Rejuvenation?

Skin Rejuvenation and resurfacing is a cosmetic procedure that helps patients to smooth out wrinkles, gain facial volume, and overall texture of the face.  There are various forms of Skin Rejuvenation including laser, light, chemical peels, and others procedures that are used to correct various types of skin issues including:

Static wrinkle correction: Static wrinkles are those wrinkles in the face that do not change with different facial expressions.

Dynamic wrinkle correction: These are expression lines which come and go according to the change in facial movements.

Scar Removal: Skin Rejuvenation and resurfacing is useful for treatment of scar marks. Plastic surgeons use different techniques to treat acne scars, pitted skin, discoloration, or excess pigmentation problems.

Repair of vascular condition: Many patients suffer from vascular lesions that are visible on the surface of the face.

Correction of excess pigmentation: Pigmentation problems such as freckles, sun sports, melasma, and skin patches can be treated with skin rejuvenation techniques.

Improving skin tone: With age, most people lose elastin fibers and collagen causing their skin to lose firmness. Skin Rejuvenation techniques help patients to improve facial skin tone.

The Procedure

Your physician will recommend a certain procedure depending on what it is you are trying to improve.  Laser resurfacing works well to improve wrinkles on the face.  For skin pigmentation treatments, laser and light treatments are typically used.  In order to repair scars and various skin conditions, laser or mechanical resurfacing is used.

Post Treatment Care and Benefits
The final result of the Skin Rejuvenation and resurfacing technique varies from patient to patient depending upon the procedure that is used and personal skin type.  Some patients may need a few treatments in order to achieve desired results.  Be sure to always wear sun protection after any treatment.  This will help maintain your results.
