Chemical Peel
By using a chemical solution, the damaged outer layers of the skin are removed, so that the new smoother skin can resurface faster. The result is glowing skin, free of age spots, acne scars, and wrinkles. Depending on the condition of your skin, you can choose from mild to deep peels to treat the problematic area. While mild and medium peels reduce fine lines and acne, deep chemical peels use phenol and treat more severe problems as wrinkles and deep scars, and the results last up to 10 years.
Electric Facials
One of the newest treatments that are becoming popular rapidly are electrical facial treatments. Aestheticians use different types of current to remove dark circles, kill acne-causing bacteria, make the skin more radiant and enhance lymphatic drainage. It takes three days for the energy caused by the nanocurrent to build in the skin, and give the ultimate result. Three days after the treatment, the skin is looking radiant, acne free, and younger. The fact that electrical facial treatment produces such quick and fascinating results is the reason why many Hollywood stars choose precisely this treatment before they head out to the red carpet.
Laser Skin Resurfacing
Laser skin resurfacing treats scars, age spots, uneven skin tone, and wrinkles with the use of short pulsating beams of light. The treatment heats up deeper layers of the skin, and removes the outer layer. The skin is firm and smooth, due to collagen production onset by the treatment. Patients who wish to get rid of deep wrinkles and scars will be treated with an ablative laser, which produces faster results. A non-ablative laser is great at treating early signs of aging, and unlike ablative laser, it reduces discomfort and recovery time.
Laser Tattoo Removal
Laser tattoo removal is almost as popular as tattooing itself. Since many people decide to get a tattoo on the spur of the moment, they regret doing it eventually, which leads to laser tattoo removal. However, sometimes the tattoo is not done correctly, or it’s misspelled, and the person just wants to remove it from their body. The laser used for tattoo removal employs ultra-short pulses of high-energy heat. The Pico Way laser, works three time faster than the Q-switch laser, and doesn’t require as much treatments as the latter to remove the entire tattoo.
Photodynamic Therapy
One of the most effective new treatments for reducing acne lesions on the skin is photodynamic therapy. Bacteria that cause acne breakouts are successfully killed with the specific light wavelengths. First, a patient will get a light microdermabrasion followed by an aminolevulinic acid solution that enhances the laser effectiveness once it’s applied to the skin. Finally, the wavelengths kill the bacteria that causes acne after they penetrate the skin.
Thanks to chemical peels, electric facials, laser skin resurfacing, laser tattoo removal and photodynamic therapy we can quickly have the glowing skin free of wrinkles, acne, age spots, tattoos and freckles. However, keep in mind that every person must consult with a dermatologist before opting for any of these treatments, since everyone’s skin and body is unique and will react in a different way to these treatments. Therefore, talk to a professional before deciding on this step.
