Laser skin
resurfacing
with the
CO2 or
erbium
lasers
involves
the
removal of
a layer of
skin so
that the
new skin
can
flourish
and fill
in the
wrinkles
and
crevices.
The laser
vaporizes
the old
wrinkled,
sun
damaged
and scarred
skin which
initiates
a cascade
for new
skin
formation.
The new
skin is
healthier
with less
visible
lines,
wrinkles,
sun damage
and scars.

resurfacing
with the
CO2 laser
remains
the gold
standard
for
reversing
the signs
of aging
associated
with
wrinkled
skin. The
CO2 laser
also
causes
dramatic
tightening
of the
skin. For
patient
who do
have
severe
wrinkles,
and are
not
smokers or
are able
to stop
smoking,

procedures
remains
the
treatment
of choice.

resurfacing

week down
time and

weeks down
time.
