Ablative lasers are a type of laser technology used in dermatology and cosmetic surgery to improve skin texture and appearance by removing damaged skin layers. The procedure involves using a laser to precisely target and vaporize the outer layers of the skin, which promotes the growth of new, healthier skin underneath. Ablative lasers are commonly used for treating a range of skin concerns, including wrinkles, acne scars, age spots, and sun damage.
There are different types of ablative lasers, including carbon dioxide (CO2) lasers and erbium lasers. CO2 lasers are known for their ability to penetrate deeper into the skin, making them effective for treating more severe skin issues and deep wrinkles. Erbium lasers offer a more superficial treatment and are often used for less intense skin resurfacing needs.
Recovery time varies depending on the intensity of the treatment and the specific laser used. Patients may experience redness, swelling, and peeling as the skin heals. Results typically include smoother, more even skin texture and a reduction in visible imperfections. Ablative lasers are a popular choice for those seeking significant improvements in skin appearance with long-lasting results.
