Are you dreaming of a way to rejuvenate your skin and achieve a glowing complexion? Look no further than laser treatment. Lasers have revolutionized cosmetic dermatology by offering targeted, noninvasive solutions to a range of skin concerns, from fine lines and wrinkles to sun damage and acne scars.

Our team at Advanced Laser and Skin Cancer Center in Teaneck, New Jersey, specializes in laser treatment and we can help you with a customized plan to tackle your skin issues and give you a complexion you’re confident in. Here’s what you need to know.

How laser skin treatments work

Laser treatments use concentrated beams of light energy to target and address specific skin issues. We offer a variety of the most popular laser treatments, like laser resurfacing, intense pulsed light (IPL), and fractional laser treatments.

Some lasers remove the outer layer of your skin to promote regeneration, while others target deeper layers to stimulate collagen production and tighten skin from within. Depending on your skin issues, we can recommend a specific type of laser and adjust its settings to your skin type and goals. 

The result? Smoother, healthier, and more vibrant skin.

What lasers can do for your skin

Laser treatments are versatile and one of the most common questions we get is, “can lasers improve my complexion?” The answer is yes, and they can do a lot more as well.

Even skin tone and texture

Dark spots, redness, freckles, sun damage, and more can mar your complexion and make your skin look rough and uneven. Lasers target hyperpigmentation and discoloration to give you an even, glowing complexion.

Fight fine lines and wrinkles 

Laser treatment can stimulate collagen production, a protein that’s essential for firm, smooth skin. Boosting collagen helps tighten your skin, and laser treatments can help smooth out wrinkles and improve skin elasticity.

Erase acne scars

Acne scars can be stubborn, and topical treatments only do so much. Because lasers encourage the growth of new, healthy skin, treatment can reduce the appearance of certain types of acne scarring.

Minimize large pores

Laser treatment stimulates cellular turnover and helps tighten skin tissue. This process strengthens your skin structure and reduces oil production, which can help minimize the appearance of large pores.

The benefits of laser skin rejuvenation

Laser procedures are customizable to meet your specific needs, and if your goal is a smoother complexion we’re here to help. We start with a consultation to discuss your goals and assess your skin.

All our laser procedures are noninvasive and we perform them in our office. Depending on your treatment, you might experience mild redness or peeling, but recovery is generally faster than with invasive methods.

During laser treatment, your provider applies the laser to your skin. You might feel a warming or tingling sensation, and we may use a topical anesthetic to keep you comfortable during treatment. Sessions typically last 30-60 minutes, depending on the area being treated.

Afterward, you may need to follow specific aftercare instructions to maximize results and protect your skin as it heals. Over time, your skin will show noticeable improvements, like smoother texture and a more radiant appearance.

Laser treatments are a powerful tool to rejuvenate your skin and address stubborn imperfections, and they could be the solution you’re seeking. Schedule a consultation at Advanced Laser and Skin Cancer Center online or call us at 201-836-9696 today to learn more.
