Laser resurfacing is performed with a CO2 (carbon dioxide) laser that emits a succession of extremely short and focused pulses. In this way, very thin layers of skin can be removed one at a time. With multiple passes, relatively deep wrinkles and scars can be eliminated. This requires skill on the part of the surgeon.
We perform this procedure under local, tumescent, anesthesia without sedation. Following the treatment, the patient must adhere to a strict schedule of wound care and sun avoidance for 7 to 9 days.
Recently we have used Botox in combination with Laser resurfacing in certain areas. This way, the healing occurs on more relaxed skin and the results are better.
Results can be further refined andimproved by using subcision with and without sculptra injection, for the deepest scars.
