Question:
I used to have beautiful skin and those days are gone. My facial skin looks blemished all of the time. Will laser skin resurfacing even out the skin tone? Will it make my skin look younger?
Answer:
At Renu Med Spa and Plastic Surgery we use a few different modalities to help with facial skin discoloration and improving the overall appearance of your facial skin. Our aestheticians will start you off with a microdermabrasion and chemical peel combination. You will be prescribed a physician grade skin care regimen to maintain the results you will achieve with each facial treatment. If your skin discoloration is deeper, you will be referred to our physicians assistant for either IPL (intense pulsed light) or Fraxel laser resurfacing. The choice of laser facial skin treatments will depend upon the amount of skin discoloration and the degree of skin damage such as actinic keratosis or solar elastosis that is also present.
