Skincare Tips from Dr. Riggins

Laser skin resurfacing
Reduce Facial wrinkles

Laser resurfacing is a relatively new treatment for reducing facial wrinkles and skin irregularities, such as blemishes or acne scars.
 
The technique directs short, concentrated pulsating beams of light at irregular skin. Laser skin resurfacing removes skin very precisely, layer by layer, resulting in fewer problems with hypo pigmentation (lightening of skin). This popular procedure is known by several other names, including laserbrasion, laser peel or laser vaporization.
 
Erbium laser resurfacing is designed to remove superficial and moderately deep lines and wrinkles on the face hands, neck, or chest. One of the benefits of erbium laser resurfacing is minimal burning of surrounding tissue. This laser causes minimal side effects, such as swelling, bruising and redness, so your recovery time will be more rapid than with CO2 laser resurfacing - one week in most cases.
 
If you have a darker skin tone, erbium laser resurfacing may work better for you. Dr. Riggins will determine which laser is best for you after he or she fully evaluates your medical history, current physical condition, and desired results.
