Make Sure to Pamper Your Skin After Your Laser Procedure

Lasers are used for so many things nowadays. In the medical field, they can destroy kidney stones, treat cancer, and correct vision. They can also be used in cosmetic procedures, and although there are so many benefits to having a laser procedure over other procedures, the laser can leave your skin just a bit uncomfortable. Here are some ways to pamper your skin after a laser procedure!

What are lasers used for cosmetically?

Lasers can be used to remove unwanted hair (without the annoyance, hassle, and expense of shaving or waxing), remove unwanted tattoos, and they can even help to give you younger-, smoother-looking skin.

In laser skin rejuvenation, the laser goes deep into the layers of the skin to stimulate the production of collagen (an important protein for beautiful skin) and the generation of new skin cells. It is used to reduce lines and wrinkles, tighten loose skin on the face and neck, and to give skin a refreshed, new look.

Laser treatments are popular because they are noninvasive, safe, and effective. Although it may take more than one treatment to see the results you want, these treatments are done on an outpatient basis and can be done in a short amount of time – just a few minutes or a couple of hours, depending on what you need to have done.

What happens after a laser treatment?

Your skin may be a bit uncomfortable, sensitive, and easily irritated after a laser treatment. You should stay out of the sun, and wear sunscreen if you do have to go outside. Avoid any exfoliants and harsh cleansers that might irritate the skin. Aloe vera can help to reduce inflammation and keep the skin moisturized, which will reduce irritation.

A little bit of pampering is always a good idea, but you should always take extra special care of your skin after any treatment! Whether you need a tattoo or unwanted hair removed or you would like to give your skin a younger, refreshed look, the Weinstein Plastic Surgery Center can help, with a laser treatment!

How Laser Technology Can Help You

Have you ever stopped to think about lasers? Probably not, but these gadgets serve many different yet important purposes in our lives today, from helping us run our errands to keeping us healthy. Lasers are also used for cosmetic procedures, to help patients get the results they want! 

Why use lasers?

Lasers help us by speeding up our trip to the store by reading barcodes on groceries, they are used in communication, and they can even help in construction projects. They are often used in medicine nowadays, from correcting eyesight to treating cancer. 

And they serve many purposes at your plastic surgery clinic, too. Lasers are safe, effective, and noninvasive. As opposed to other procedures that might involve surgery, lasers involve much less hassle and downtime – and, lasers are noninvasive. Patients may report, at most, some discomfort with a laser procedure, but the pain that comes with surgery is avoided. Lasers can be used on most skin types and hair colors. And, a laser treatment can be done very quickly, although some treatments may require more than one session. Lasers can do a lot for patients, including: 

Tattoo removal

Do you regret getting that tattoo? You can have it painlessly and easily removed with a laser treatment. Laser beams break up the pigments in the tattoo so that your skin looks as if you’ve never had one. 

Skin rejuvenation

Laser beams can penetrate deep into the skin, which triggers the creation of new collagen. New collagen gives skin a rejuvenated, refreshed, younger look. Different laser treatments can focus on different problems. Lasers can reduce wrinkles, fine lines, and blotchy spots; reduce acne and other scars; and can clean out oil from pores, reducing the pores and existing acne. 

Hair removal

If you are tired of the hassle (and pain!) that can come with shaving and waxing, laser hair removal may be the answer. Lasers can remove unwanted hair in almost any location on men or women. It is quick and the results are long-lasting. 

Lasers really can do some amazing things – let laser technology help you to have the beautiful skin you want. Call Weinstein Plastic Surgery Center in Chester, New Jersey, for more information about how lasers can help you! Call (908) 879-2222 today!
