Laser Skin Rejuvenation
Wrinkles, enlarged pores, and uneven skin texture are widespread problems associated with aging. As an alternative to ineffective creams and harsh ablative treatments, Astanza non-ablative laser skin resurfacing gives patients a smart treatment solution with impressive results and virtually no downtime.
About Skin Rejuvenation
Laser skin rejuvenation involves brief, high-energy laser pulses applied to the skin. The intense energy causes a photoacoustic effect in the skin, stimulating cells to produce more collagen. The increased collagen production reduces the appearance of skin imperfections such as fine lines, wrinkles, crow’s feet, acne scars, enlarged pores, and uneven skin tone.
Laser skin rejuvenation has been a popular aesthetic procedure for many years. Older ablative lasers removed top skin layers, causing pain and requiring downtime. Astanza technology offers alternative, gentler solution with the same collagen-producing results. Astanza lasers use non-ablative skin resurfacing, making the procedure painless, with minimal side effects.
The Procedure
A skin rejuvenation procedure takes less than ten minutes, requires no consumables, and is completely painless. Q-switched laser light is applied in a continuous motion across the patient’s treatment area, avoiding sensitive locations. Treatments are typically performed on the face, neck, and/or hands. Side effects from the skin rejuvenation procedure are typically mild. Patients may have a slightly pinkish skin tone, as if they had just exfoliated.
Typical Results
Patients can see a variety of improvements to skin appearance, elasticity, and tone as early as the first treatment. Fine lines are diminished, skin texture feels more consistent, and scars are less apparent.
Impressive resurfacing results can continue to be seen if a patient receives multiple treatments over time. Laser skin rejuvenation is a great repeat procedure– patients like the results and want to continue the progress.
