Our bodies start to produce less collagen as we age, which is the building block of healthy, beautiful skin. The structure begins to degrade without the collagen it needs to remain vibrant and smooth. By removing the dull outer layers of skin, laser skin resurfacing restores suppleness and a youthful appearance. As a result, a fresh surface is created, and collagen is stimulated dramatically. Natural skin restoration makes it appear younger, brighter, and healthier.
Among the common treatment areas are the upper and lower eyelids, the crow’s feet, and the upper lip and chin. Many patients, especially those with deep wrinkles and extensive sun damage, elect to have their entire face treated. The treatments typically take 20-40 minutes, and the results will last two years or longer, depending on the patient.
