What Is Facial Rejuvenation or Laser Facelift Treatment Using a CO2 Fractional Laser?
Facial Rejuvenation, laser facelift or laser skin repair is the visible improvement of wrinkled, pigmented, and/or sun-damaged skin by removing enlarged blood vessels and irregular pigmentation and stimulating the underlying collagen. It is performed with a fractional laser also referred to as a CO2 laser or CO2 Fractionated laser. This treatment can also be used for photodamage, brown spots, liver spots, age spots, sun spots, wrinkles and acne scarring.

Can The Laser Treat Infants With Port-Wine Birthmarks?
Yes. The laser can be used to safely treat all sizes of Port-Wine Birthmarks in infants and adults.
How Does a Laser Help?
Using a beam of light, the laser treats a broad range of vascular conditions by selectively treating the areas of concern. The laser light selectively targets and coagulates problem blood vessels while leaving the surrounding skin unchanged. It destroys the underlying blood vessels that support growths such as warts and psoriasis and can selectively target red vessels and blotches on the face and legs, effectively treating facial and leg veins, rosacea and acne.
How Many Treatments Are Required?
Patients will see results within three to four weeks. Typically one to two treatments are recommended. For conditions such as birthmarks or hemangiomas, several treatments will be required.
Is The Treatment Painful?
There is some minor discomfort associated with laser treatment. Most patients describe the sensation as a series of rubber band snaps to the skin. The doctor can often reduce or eliminate this by cooling the treated area with an air-cooling device.

Photo Facials, or Intense Pulsed Light Photorejuvenation, utilizes high-energy pulses of light to produce younger and healthier looking skin. Broken blood vessels and pigmented regions on the skin surface selectively absorb the pulses of light, shrinking or fading after treatment evening your skin tone while tightening and smoothing your skin texture. IPL can also be used for treating scars from acne or rosacea as well as poikloderma (pigmentation) conditions on the skin. Learn more about IPL Therapy.
