For skin rejuvenation, it is used in an ablative or non-ablative, fractional or non-fractional laser, causing a stripping of the epidermis and remodeling of the collagen in the dermis layer, rejuvenating the appearance of the skin.

DERMATOLOGICAL LASER SURGERY

 

Using the ablative or non-ablative method, in a focused or defocused way, far-infrared rays penetrate the skin, causing blood capillary coagulation, removal of spots or removal of moles. Red capillaries are a big problem for many people, their origin can come from different diseases, they can be inherited or acquired. With laser treatment they can be reduced or disappeared. Removal of moles or precancerous forms with more aesthetic results compared to the surgical excision.

 

The CO2 and Erbium lasers are the leaders in their application for these procedures.

 

Removal of moles with laser (Verrucas, solar keratosis, papilloma, various nevi, etc..)

 

Moles can be of different origins, but sun exposure especially from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. in the afternoon, can damage or change them. The moles can be removed with laser which leaves no marks, but before the treatment the moles should be checked with dermoscopy to be sure if the laser removal is indicated. 

 

Laser treatment of Xanthelasma

 

Fatty yellow plaques on or around your eyelids.

 

If you suffer from familial hypercholesterolemia and these plaques worry you, you can solve this problem with the surgical laser.

 

Use of laser for wrinkles or skin rejuvenation

 

The use of ablative or non-ablative Fractional Lasers can make or not a stripping of the epidermis, but all of them works by stimulating collagen production through the heat of the light. This improves the quality of the skin, reduces wrinkles and makes the skin look younger and more vital.
