What are laser treatments?

Laser treatments use carefully controlled, concentrated beams of light energy to alter your skin, creating improvements to the way your skin looks and feels. These treatments are incredibly powerful, which is why it is imperative to have any laser service performed by skilled and experienced medical professionals. 

Some laser treatments work by using laser energy to remove the outermost layers of your skin. This approach carries a high risk of infection and requires substantial downtime. 

At SafiraMD Medical Aesthetics and Wellness Center, several powerful treatments are available, but all options create results without damaging your skin. The ability to improve skin conditions without weeks of downtime is one of the reasons laser treatments are so popular. 

The practice proudly offers Aerolase™ technology to deliver NeoClear® treatments for acne as well as NeoSkin® treatments for overall skin improvements. If you’re searching for more in-depth results, the Halo® laser treatment from Sciton® may be a great fit. 

What kinds of skin issues can laser treatments improve?

Laser treatments are a wonderful option for those who want to address more than one skin condition at once. Some of the common skin complaints that laser treatments address include:

• Acne
• Loose or sagging skin
• Lines and wrinkles
• Enlarged pores
• Irregular skin texture
• Sun damage
• Rosacea or other types of redness
• Dull skin

Laser treatments are not just for your face; they can also create improvements in broken blood vessels, skin tags, ingrown hairs, warts, or other issues in all areas of your body. 

What is the aftercare needed following laser treatments?

It takes time for your body to adapt to the changes created through laser treatments. Minor swelling, bruising, and sensitivity are normal in the hours and days after your treatment sessions. Over-the-counter pain medication is all that’s needed to address any discomfort, and cold compresses help with swelling. 

It’s important to protect your skin from sun exposure in the days after your treatments. A high-quality sunscreen should be part of your daily skin care regimen, and you might consider wearing a hat or avoiding sun exposure for a few days as your skin adjusts.
