Laser treatments use focused light beams to target specific areas of the skin or body. They can be used for various purposes, including skin resurfacing, hair removal, and treating conditions like acne scars or wrinkles. The procedure is generally quick and can be performed in a doctor's office, often requiring little to no downtime.
Different types of lasers are available, such as CO2 lasers for deeper skin issues and Alexandrite lasers for hair removal. The choice of laser depends on the treatment area and the desired outcome. Patients typically experience minimal discomfort, and results can vary based on individual skin types and conditions.
