Not Just For Celebrities: ProFractional Laser Skin Tightening
If facial wrinkles, skin discoloration attributed to sun damage or sagging skin is making you look older than you are, Georgia Dermatology Center’s ProFractional Laser Skin Resurfacing technology can improve the appearance of your skin without the risk or expense of surgery! Fractional laser resurfacing therapy is many celebrities’ best non-surgical fountain of youth technique. Watch any televised awards ceremony, talk show, documentary and you’ll wonder how THEY always have such a youthful appearance when you both graduated from high school the same year. You shake your head and say to yourself, “They’ve had some work done”. But many of them report saying a firm “NO” to invasive surgery, and choose instead to embrace laser skin tightening technology to retain that fresh appearance that never seems to change as they age.
How Does ProFractional Laser Work?
This non-surgical, celebrity practice is offered to patients in the Alpharetta, Cumming, Milton, Roswell, Johns Creek, South Forsyth, North Fulton and Atlanta metro area communities at Georgia Dermatology Center at a price you don’t have to be a celebrity to afford. It’s more than just resurfacing of the outer layers of the skin, it’s a deep laser skin rejuvenation process. Profractional utilizes an erbium:YAG laser which has the ability to vaporize tissue with very little thermal conduction resulting in minimal procedure discomfort. The beauty of the ProFractional laser is that it treats one micro portion of the skin surface at a time. The thousands of micro columns receive the appropriate amount of laser energy to vaporize the marred surface layer of skin while also stimulating new collagen growth of surrounding tissue. It only removes a small percentage of the upper layer of skin, resulting in faster healing, typically 7 to 10 days, and reduction in the length of time one goes about “pink”. The laser can be set at varying intensities depending on the age, skin condition, and desired outcome of the patient. Healing times are generally shortened at milder intensities, and non-smokers typically experience more effective results.
What Improvements Can I Expect?
ProFractional Laser treatment offers multiple skin renewal benefits:
- Smooth wrinkles and lines
- Improve texture and firmness
- Reverse the appearance of aged and sun damaged skin
- Reduce the appearance of acne and other scars
Following the initial recovery time, when swelling, peeling, a little ooze and discoloration typically occur, skin will be visibly smoother and tighter looking within about a month and sun damaged areas appear more evenly toned. As new collagen forms the tightening effects continue over the next several months, and it is generally held that the collagen remodeling process is permanent. Although results vary for each particular client, one typically can expect a reduction in the physical appearance of 8 to 10 years. So you’ll be the one at your 40th High School reunion that looks like you should be at your 30th reunion! Take a look at our Before and After Resurfacing Gallery to see for yourself.
