Laser skin resurfacing utilizes a laser that is fine-tuned to the skin, allowing it to precisely vaporize the outer layer of the skin while triggering the growth of collagen and elastin, which produces fresh, youthful, firmer skin.
CO2 Laser Resurfacing
At Allure Plastic Surgery, we use the Carbon Dioxide (CO2) laser to help smooth away facial wrinkles, skin irregularities, and blotchiness. The CO2 laser is especially effective for frown lines around the mouth and lips and crow’s feet around the eyes.
The CO2 laser is the heaviest, most intense procedure which can produce excellent, dramatic results. If you prefer, laser resurfacing can be done under IV sedation for your comfort. Recovery after the treatment takes about 10 days, after which make-up can be applied.
Fraxel Laser
The Fraxel laser is a cutting-edge, advanced treatment used to reduce wrinkles around the eyes. Fraxel laser treatments result in smoother, softer, more youthful-looking skin, better skin tone and texture, and reduced acne scarring and pigmentation concerns, and more radiant skin.
