Learning about microdermabrasion and laser skin resurfacing

Posted by Dr. Schoenfeld

Question:
I am 53 years old and I would like to know which procedure is the best for crow’s feet and several age spots. I have been learning about microdermabrasion and laser skin resurfacing. Which one provides the best results? Which one is cheaper? Which one has a shorter recovery period?

Answer:
Your question is really two different questions. The best treatment for crows feet is a combination of Botox or Dysport and the use of laser skin resurfacing. Age spots can be treated less aggressively than crow’s feet and laser technology such as the Fraxel laser or IPL are both very effective in the treatment of age spots and skin discoloration. I would suggest Botox or Dysport to the crow’s feet and Fraxel laser treatments to the rest of the face. These treatments have minimal recovery time, are reasonably priced, and will provide you with exceptional results.
