Cosmetic Surgeries for the Seasons
Lasers have moved beyond the realm of science fiction and into the arena of everyday use thanks to continued research into the ways that they can help revitalize the skin. Today, an astounding variety of lasers proclaim their abilities to smooth away lines and wrinkles, improve skin tone and texture, and get rid of uneven and blotchy skin.
What Are Cosmetic Lasers and What Do They Do?
Clearly, cosmetic lasers serve a wide variety of purposes. Some are very gentle and merely revitalize the skin slightly. These lasers are ideal for younger individuals who do not need much repaired on their skin. Other lasers are stronger and a bit harsher. While they may require a bit more recovery time to let the skin heal after a treatment session, they also work deeper beneath the surface of the skin to produce more drastically visible results.Which laser might be right for you? What could a series of laser treatments achieve for your skin? You will definitely want to set up a consultation with Dr. Tavoussi at the OC Cosmetic Surgery Clinique to learn more. However, the potential for amazing results might surprise you.
Choosing the Right Type of Laser
Cosmetic lasers can be separated into two main categories, which include ablative and nonablative lasers. Ablative lasers work deep beneath the skin and actually get rid of the top portion of your skin, allowing new and healthy skin cells to rise to the surface. Nonablative lasers are far gentler and do not remove any skin. Within these categories, you will find such options as the CO2 laser, the Nd:YAG laser, the erbium:YAG laser and diode lasers. Another option, the IPL laser, is even less invasive and works well on lighter skin tones.Each of these lasers types is best suited for one or two specific tasks. Be sure to ask your cosmetic specialist which one is right for you based on your needs and your skin tone.
