What is Enhanced Skin Rejuvenation?
Enhanced Skin Rejuvenation is a gentle laser treatment for wrinkles and sun damage. This no-downtime procedure is appropriate for the face but also for the chest, neck and hands – anywhere that sun damage shows.
Enhanced Skin Rejuvenation is a non-ablative, non-invasive procedure- the surface of the skin is not damaged or removed. The gentle lasers correct pigmentation irregularities and encourage new collagen growth to smooth out existing facial wrinkles

Who is appropriate?
The lasers we use are safe for most skin types and colours.

What Can I Expect During a Treatment?
Prior to treatment your doctor might recommend that a mild, topical anaesthetic be applied to your face or another region that is scheduled for treatment. While not necessary, some patients prefer to be treated after a topical is applied.
Before treatment, a cool gel is applied in a thin layer over the treatment area. The cooled gel is applied in a thin layer over the treatment area. The cooled window of the laser is then placed upon the skin. When the energy is applied it feels a bit like a warm pulse against the skin.

Is the treatment painful?
Most patients feel minimal discomfort during the procedure. A topical anaesthetic can be applied to make the treatments more comfortable.

What can I expect following the treatment?
Following the treatment the physician will recommend a sun block for daily wear. Make-up can be applied immediately after treatment and you can resume normal activities. Many patients schedule their treatments over lunch and return to work right after. There may be some slight redness or swelling for a few hours or, on rare occasions a few days.

Darker pigments and freckles may get darker after the initial treatment and flake off in a few days.
Because the lasers reduce wrinkles by encouraging new collagen growth, wrinkle improvement is gradual. At the time of your third treatment, nine to twelve weeks after your initial treatments, you may begin to note wrinkle improvement.

How long do treatments take?
Enhanced Skin Rejuvenation typically uses two laser wavelengths in each treatment session. Each session takes about 30minutes depending on the size of the treatment area. Depending on your skin type and condition, between 3 to 8 treatments might be necessary.

How long do the effects last?
Aging is progressive. The wrinkles and sun damage that are visible today were often caused years before. Care should be taken to wear sun block so no new sun damage can occur. Additionally, new wrinkles cannot necessary be stopped from appearing. However, the laser’s encouragement of new collagen growth should help slow the appearance of new wrinkles.

Why should I choose Enhanced Skin Rejuvenation?
Enhanced Skin Rejuvenation is a wonderful, cost effective alternative for patients who want a more youthful appearance without needles, cosmetic surgery or weeks of recovery time.
