What is the Best Treatment for Hyperpigmentation & Sun Damage?

Unwanted pigmentation problems, like sun damage, brown spots, redness, or splotchy skin can cause our faces to age prematurely. A smooth, even complexion is often associated with youth. Though the best treatment is prevention through use of sunscreen, flawless skin is attainable. Laser Skin Care Center offers several treatments to treat hyperpigmentation and sun damage specifically. Chemical Peels Chemical Peels come in several different intensities (mild, medium, and deep) and remove damaged outer layers of skin on the face for smoother texture, diminished blemishes and pre-cancerous growths, improved scarring, and glowing skin. Chemical peels enhance cell turnover and improve collagen production. Fraxel Fraxel laser produces thousands of microscopic laser columns, which penetrate deep into the skin. The heat from the energy bursts removes damaged cells but does not cause significant damage to surrounding healthy tissues. This treats uneven pigmentation commonly associated with sun spots, melasma, and even precancerous conditions.

How Often Should I Get Checked for Skin Cancer?

Skin cancer is extremely common. More people are diagnosed with skin cancer each year in the U.S. than all other cancers combined. One in five Americans will develop skin cancer by the age of 70. That’s why it’s so important to get checked for skin cancer. Early detection is second only to prevention when it comes to survival rates. Getting checked regularly is important for everyone, but particularly those with high risks of skin cancer. People with fair skin, who tend to have a hard time tanning and burn easily, and are Caucasian with blue eyes, light hair, and freckles have the highest risk. Skin cancer risk is based on other risk factors, the largest of which is a history of skin cancer either yourself or in your family. Other risk factors include histories of severe sunburn and using tanning beds. People should be checked annually for skin cancer, particularly those at risk. However, you should be performing your own checks several times a year. Patients themselves detect half of all skin cancer [...]

How Can I Remove Acne Scars?

Many people, teenagers and adults suffer from acne. For many, the condition clears up over time. However, others are left with redness and craters in the form of acne scars. Laser Skin Care Center offers Microneedling/Microneedling procedures for those suffering from acne scars. Microneedling /Microneedling Microneedling is a micro-needling system that uses a disposable tip consisting of 12 micro-needles that penetrate the skin, creating micro-injuries that stimulate collagen production. This encourages the body to repair through the skin’s normal physiological process. Penetrating deep into the dermis, the Microneedling creates the growth of elastin and collagen using the body’s own natural healing. It treats tone and texture at a very deep level, including wrinkles and acne scars. This leaves smoother, more even, and flawless skin. Immediately after your Microneedling procedure, you will experience redness, pinpoint bleeding, minimal swelling and you may feel like you have had a mild sunburn. The benefits of one Microneedling procedure will be apparent immediately; however, we recommend 3-6 treatments, 4-6 weeks apart for optimal results. Before After [...]
