What are laser procedures?

Laser procedures use light energy to transform your skin through minimally invasive means. Advanced Laser and Skin Cancer Center uses lasers for both cosmetic and medical dermatology, always tailoring your treatment type to your unique needs. 

What conditions do laser procedures treat? 

Lasers treat a broad range of skin problems and concerns, including: 

Acne

While it’s especially common in teenagers, acne can happen at any age. Up to 22% of adult women have acne today. Acne can lead to scars that linger for life (or until treated). Laser procedures and blue light can reduce oil production, kill bacteria, and clear your skin while minimizing acne scars. Rosacea, which can look like acne, also responds to light therapy. 

Wrinkles

Fine lines and wrinkles can start as early as your 20s or 30s and usually intensify as you age. Laser treatment can warm the skin’s deeper layers, stimulating your body to produce new collagen and elastin. This helps to firm and tighten your skin, giving you a more youthful appearance. 

Unwanted pigmentation

Unwanted pigmentation, such as age spots and sun spots, happens when melanin (the coloring pigment in your skin) clumps together in certain areas. Light therapy treatments like intense pulsed light (IPL) targets the clumps of melanin cells to break them down. You’ll absorb and eliminate the particles harmlessly over time. 

Vascular lesions

Vascular lesions, like small spider veins or other broken blood vessels, can leave prominent red, blue, or purple marks on your skin. Treatments like IPL or vascular lasers can target the broken blood vessels with light, forcing them to close off and fade over time. 

Tattoos

Whether you regret a tattoo or just don’t like the way it looks anymore, laser tattoo treatments can remove or dramatically lighten the ink and clear your skin. The fast-pulse Q-switched lasers at Advanced Laser and Skin Cancer Center can break down ink particles into tiny fragments, which your body flushes out in time. 

Laser treatments can also help with a variety of other skin issues.

What treatments work well with laser procedures? 

Laser procedures combine well with many treatments, including dermal fillers, Botox®, and chemical peels, to help rejuvenate your face and overall appearance.
