LASER RESURFACING:

Laser skin resurfacing eliminates the external layers of skin that have been affected. The laser resurfacing method promotes the growth of collagen and new skin cells in the underlying layers of the skin. Laser resurfacing is often used to minimize or lessen scars and wrinkles on the neck and face.

LASER SKIN REJUVENATION:

Laser skin treatment is an effective procedure for wrinkle elimination that employs infrared light to fix the skin without operation. The laser light provides heat to layers below the surface of the skin, promotes the development of collagen and makes the skin look firmer. Most people find the treatment to be a great option to the standard facelift, since it needs no scalpel, no downtime and no anaesthesia.

MICRODERMABRASION:

This method is one of the procedures for wrinkles treatment as it is done easily in the facial esthetics office. It is used to fix age spots and light acne marks. The doctor uses a handheld device to spray tiny crystals on the skin surface. The crystals exfoliate the layers of the skin by using suction to extract crystals and dead skin cells at the same time. More than one microdermabrasion treatment may be required for removing wrinkles as well as other treatments for the skin.

CHEMICAL PEELS:

Chemical peels commonly known as derma-peeling or chemexfoliation procedures are cosmetic treatments done on the face, usually used as an anti-aging method to rejuvenate the skin. Chemical peels will be used to fix skin defects in the texture, like wrinkles and pigment eg spots triggered by sun exposure. Such peels have differing powers, identified by the different types of acids used in the chemical solution applied. Chemical-peel products use three primary acid ingredients to produce varying intensity levels: trichloroacetic acid (TCA) , phenol and alphahydroxy acid (AHA).
