A lot of people suffer from cosmetic and dermatological problems.
These skin conditions may often cause a lot of distress and discomfort to those who suffer from it. Fortunately, there are some ways in which you can get rid of these scars. Fractional laser resurfacing is one such procedure. This is a procedure in which controlled laser pulses are used to resurface your skin so that new, younger, flawless skin can surface from underneath. This helps remove scars, blemishes and wrinkles.
Fractional laser resurfacing is a cosmetic procedure, one which is performed in a doctor's clinic under topical anesthesia. This is one of the most cost effective methods of improving your skin tone, complexion and texture. This laser resurfacing procedure is also extremely quick, and recovery times are relatively low. The procedure is most well-known for offering improved aesthetic outcome. Microbeams are used to treat specific areas of the skin.
Dermabrasion is a similar procedure in which the whole skin is treated. With fractional laser resurfacing, it is easier to choose specific areas of the skin that need attention. You can simply treat areas with blemishes, while leaving the surrounding healthy tissues untouched. This offers reduced side effects, and the skin also heals much better and much faster. There are several different types of treatment such as fractional non-ablative skin resurfacing, fractional ablative skin resurfacing, and a combination of ablative and non-ablative fractional laser resurfacing.
You will notice a stark difference in your skin before and after the procedure. A lot of people use it to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, so that they appear younger than they actually are. The cost is not much, and depends on the surface area of skin being treated. As a result, more and more people are opting for the procedure for improving the appearance of their skin.
Some of the specific conditions that fractional laser resurfacing procedures can help treat include melasma, blotchy skin, hyperpigmentation, scars (both acne and surgical), wrinkles, blemishes such as textural problems, and hypopigmentation. The procedure can be used at any part of your skin, but most people use it for the skin that remains exposed.
Like any other medical and cosmetic procedure, there are potential side effects. Immediately after the procedure, you may experience redness, swelling, and tenderness in the treated area. In rare cases, you may experience infections as well. You may have a prolonged recovery time if you experience any complications or side effects.
