State of the Art Laser TechnologyThe extremely brief duration of the ultra-pulsed laser beam avoids the production of heat, which is one of the causes of complications such as scarring. Older lasers, in contrast, had longer pulse durations that were sufficient to allow heat buildup. The laser surgeon is able to actually see the skin "tighten up" during the procedure, and can focus the instrument on specific acne scars, wrinkles, lines, or blemishes. In addition, the ultra-pulsed laser is thought to stimulate the synthesis of new collagen under the skin, enhancing your complexion. Advantages over chemical peels and dermabrasions include the precise depth control, skin tightening and lifting, targeting of specific areas, and absence of bleeding. |
