The Ultra Pulse CO2
and erbim:YAG lasers are the most advanced machines used in skin resurfacing. The
laser light is absorbed by the water in your skin cells. The absorption
in turn causes instantaneous vaporization of the skin. As your physician
passes the laser light over your skin, a mere 30 millionths of an inch of
tissue is removed at a time. This incredible control allows your physician
to treat only as deeply as needed, from removing wrinkles to merely refreshing
your overall skin appearance. After the damaged skin is removed, new skin
quickly regrows in its place.
