Sun damage and natural aging often cause unpleasant characteristic to appear on the facial skin, which can be corrected with non-invasive treatments. Larry H. Pollack, M.D., F.A.C.S. of Del Mar Plastic Surgery in San Diego is a laser resurfacing specialist who can help patients achieve a more even skin tone.
Skin resurfacing using the Fraxel ® re:pair laser can help patients diminish the appearance of irregular skin texture, wrinkles, fine lines, redness, and sunspots. The laser uses points of light to treat microscopic areas of the skin. The treatment removes old, damaged skin cells, stimulating the body's natural healing process, and replacing the cells to produce fresh, glowing, healthy skin. Fraxel laser resurfacing can be performed on the face, neck, chest and hands, providing patients with a refreshed appearance. In addition, patients may anticipate a rapid results and minimal down time.
However, those who wish to undergo a more dramatic rejuvenation may be interested in a cosmetic surgery procedure, such as facelift surgery ("rhytidectomy"). This procedure reduces the appearance of sagging in the cheek, jowl, and neck areas, as well as removes excess skin. When combined with laser skin resurfacing, patients can achieve a youthful look.
