Myths and truths about laser treatments revealed here! Myth 1: I'm only in my 20s or 30s so I don't need laser treatments. Fact: According to Dr Dana Elliott, doing a laser treatment is similar to giving your skin a work out, which keeps it in peak condition. It is better to prevent than cure. So, if you start your treatments now, your face will retain its youthfulness 10 years or more down the road.
New lasers now may or may not remove the top layers of skin and they are more targeted and less invasive, causing less tissue damage. An example is the Erbium laser which I am trying today. According to Dr Elliott, this laser has exfoliating properties which is good for acne and it also has skin tightening benefits.
How does IPL Photorejuvenation work? The flash lamp produces light which is carefully filtered before it reaches the skin. This ensures that only light of the correct wavelength is allowed to touch the skin.
Laser treatments are all the rage these days and they can help you achieve flawless skin. Here's a review of a laser treatment called Pixel Skin Resurfacing: Dr Z first examines Carol's face to assess her skin condition. Noting that she has some skin pigmentation and very light scars, he says that he will give her a mild laser treatment suitable for her skin type. She is then taken to a room where a numbing cream is applied and left on for 20 minutes to minimise discomfort during the treatment process.

Having made its name as a cult brand in Hollywood, Cosmelan is a breakthrough in depigmentation (whitening). The treatment works by the inhibition of an enzyme that causes the formation of melanin (tyrosine). It consists of a mixture of skin-friendly acids and antioxidants that aid to gently exfoliate and rejuvenate the skin, reducing the pigment blemishes. It acts rapidly, and does not give rise to the down time and severe flaking and redness that some harsh deep acid peels can cause.
When I think of chemical peels, red and raw skin comes to mind. Not, the new Ferulic Acid Chemical Peel though. This new chemical peel has no downtime at all. However, despite this, it has more antioxidant and free radical scavenging activities than other chemical peels, with its combination of skin rejuvenating ferulic acid, vitamins A, C, E, citric and lactic acids.
