Are you one of the people who grew up when it was “cool” to bake in the sun? It’s okay. You can admit it. After all, millions of people from your generation are right there with you. They’ve also accumulated sun damage. And with it the consequences, which include aged-looking skin and an increased risk of skin cancer.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Fortunately, modern science can undo this damage with LASERS. That’s right. <\/span>Lasers<\/span><\/i>. They send forth magical bursts of light that can make new skin grow. If it sounds high-tech, it’s because it is. Let’s dive right in, shall we?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

What Are Lasers?<\/h2>\n

A skin laser is a tool used to improve your skin’s tone, texture, and coloration with targeted, controlled light and heat. NASA said Laser means:<\/span><\/p>\n

L – light<\/span><\/p>\n

A – amplified<\/span><\/p>\n

S – stimulated<\/span><\/p>\n

E – emission<\/span><\/p>\n

R – radiation<\/span><\/p>\n

How Do Lasers Work?<\/h2>\n

Some lasers (non-ablative) penetrate the layers of your skin and injure it in a tiny, controlled way. This stimulates your body’s healing process. Collagen and elastin rush in to build fresh skin cells and collagen. The result is newer-looking skin that is tighter, smoother, and more clear.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Other lasers (ablative) remove the top layer of skin to reveal fresher skin underneath.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Now that we know the fountain of youth is in your dermatologist’s office (in the form of a laser) let’s take a look at what different lasers can do for your aged, sun-damaged skin.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
