How does it work?
It works by stimulating collagen production in the skin. This takes place because of the energy that the skin receives from the laser and which converts into heat once absorbed in the skin. The skin thus begins to produce more collagen which will in turn lead to tightening of the skin and of open pores, leaving the skin looking smooth and rejuvenated.
What to expect during the procedure?
These are the main steps of the treatment:
Numbing cream will be applied to the concerned area to make the procedure as comfortable for you as possible.
You will be asked to put on a protective eye mask.
The doctor will begin treatment with a hand held laser. You might feel a tingling sensation.
A cooling mask will be applied to the treated skin.
You will be advised about aftercare.
It really depends on the condition of your skin. However, like with any skin treatment maintenance is always required. Therefore, for consistent and long lasting results you might be asked to come back for some follow up sessions.
After the treatment you will experience some swelling and mild redness. This will, however, go down within a day. There is no bruising from this treatment. You should let your doctor know beforehand if your skin is sensitive or prone to bruising.
No, the procedure does not hurt. We do apply numbing cream beforehand but there is no need for anesthesia. You might feel a slight stinging sensation but it will not last long.
The cost depends on the amount of work that needs to be done and the number of sessions required. Please visit us to get an exact figure for your treatment.

What to expect after treatment?
After the treatment you can expect your skin to look a little swollen and reddish. You might also feel a mild stinging sensation. These aftereffects will also subside within an hour or two at max. Over the next two days the treated skin will peel slightly but it’s not anything to worry about. That’s the expected outcome of the treatment.
