This new generation of lasers allows the physician to tailor the treatment specifically to each issue on a patient’s face, whereas previous generations of lasers obliged the doctor to treat the face with multiple processes. Including microneedling is part of that tailoring, using microscopic needles to puncture the skin, causing controlled wounding that stimulates the natural healing process and the production of collagen, which restores both radiance and elasticity to the surface of the skin.
For specific tightening and toning, Henry says, “I love using the Aerolase 1064 Laser for skin rejuvenation and laser toning in darker skin types.”
Designed to deal with thicker areas of the skin, this laser is helpful for acne scars, stretch marks, spider veins, keloid revision and fungal issues with nails, among other things. Scars can thankfully now be permanently removed, commonly in about two to four treatments.
drmichellehenry Do you have acne but can not tolerate topical or oral medications? Lasers treatments could be the answer. Here I am treating a long time acne sufferer with the Aerolase Lightpod Neo. Because of this laser’s wavelength and 650 microsecond pulse duration it is painless and safe for all skin types. Seconds after the procedure, my patient has mild redness which resolves within minutes. I treat every two weeks for the best results.
