About Lasers

The Cosmetic Lasers

The word Laser is an acronym standing for Light Amplification by the Stimulated Emission of Radiation.

A laser generates a high-intensity beam of light that has many applications in medicine. The light produced by the laser is a single wavelength, similar to choosing one pure color from a rainbow. Depending on the color chosen, the laser energy is only absorbed by certain tissues. For instance, a laser beam can pass safely through the surface of the skin and destroy blood vessels or hair follicles lying just beneath the surface. The laser light is converted to heat, causing thermal damage to the selected tissue without damaging the surrounding tissue.

What does laser treatment feel like?

Most patients feel a slight stinging, tingling, or snap like a rubber band for a fraction of a second. To minimize any discomfort, a cooling device is often used on the skin depending on the type of laser or intense pulsed light. In certain procedures, such as skin resurfacing, a local analgesia may be used when needed. Photographs may be taken for your medical record documentation and for future comparison, when deemed necessary.

Is it safe?

Yes. The energy that the laser utilizes is a wavelength of light which can penetrate the skin in a passive fashion, meaning it passes through your body and does not leave a residual, yet can selectively hit the target tissue (i.e., the hair follicle or blood vessels).

Finally…

Will cosmetic laser surgery and intense pulsed light treatments make you thin, rich and happy? No! Will it bring about amazing changes in your skin problems that you might have thought were beyond help? Absolutely! Cosmetic laser surgery promises a bright future for those seeking to enhance their looks and turn back the hands of time. It is certainly something that can improve both physical and emotional well being. Isn't it time to reward yourself? You deserve it!
