What is Laser Skin Resurfacing in Houston, TX

Advances in skin rejuvenation have evolved in recent years. Dermatologists have used the carbon dioxide laser for treating acne scars, fine lines, wrinkles, pigment discolorations and generalized skin damage from sun exposure. No recent advancement in cosmetic surgery has had more of an impact than the development of laser skin resurfacing. Recent advances in carbon dioxide laser technology using fractionated lasers have improved recovery and results. Lasers work by emitting a powerful beam of light which generates energy and heat that removes the superficial layers of skin. As the skin heals it is replaced by new living cells and collagen which tightens the skin resulting in a younger and smoother surface with a noticeable reduction in pore size.
