Restore A Youthful Appearance With The Science of Laser Light

by Cindy Seifried

Fractional CO2 Resurfacing is a skin treatment that uses laser technology to reduce wrinkles and remove a variety of imperfections. Microbeams play on the layers of the skin, targeting a fraction of the skin at a time. This laser light removes thick, dead skin and stimulates new skin growth and collagen. Since the light is focused on only small parts of the skin, it leaves the surrounding tissue unaffected allowing the patient to heal quickly. 

How It Works

Common areas the skin treatment can be used on:

* like the face

* Your neck

* The chest

* The back

* Your hands

The treatment can be performed anywhere on the body for the removal of sun damage, surgical scars, accident scarring, and stretch mark reduction. 

Loosened skin is likewise a common issue, one that can be effectively treated with skin tightening treatments anywhere on the body. This is a great way for those who have actually had a reduction in weight or a loss of flexibility common with sun exposure or aging skin. 

The skin treatment can be used to resolve:

* skin discolorations

* sun damaged skin

* blemishes on the skin

* acne scars 

* skin that has surgical scars

* the appearance of fine lines

* rough skin texture

* rigid skin (skin that has lost its elasticity)

Post Treatment Care After Treatment

Patients are advised to follow the following procedures after treatment: 

1. They should avoid exposure to direct sunlight, for the period of five days to ensure proper healing.

2. Carefully stick to the aftercare directions; cleaning delicately with a mild cleanser in the morning and in the evening. In addition, applying a moisturizer recommended by a skin expert to get rid of the dry, dead skin.

3. Use sunscreen SPF 35 or greater, reapplied every 3 hours when in direct sunlight for the next 8 weeks.

4. Daily use of sunscreen is advised routinely for all to avoid damage and increase aging to the skin.

Conclusion

Recovery is rapid and does not require any extensive post-treatment therapy. In essence, this is an ideal way to restore a youthful appearance without excessive cost and expensive surgery.
