If you are considering laser skin rejuvenation in San Mateo, you need to come over to Foster City to Silicon Valley Aesthetic Dermatology. We use several different therapies for making your skin taught and smooth again, some of which involve the use of lasers, but exactly which we will recommend will depend on your particular skin condition.Laser therapy for skin rejuvenation

Aging has an effect on everyone as the body naturally gets older, but other things can also affect the condition of your skin such as too much sunshine, the use of chemicals, abrasion, and so on. Laser skin rejuvenation in San Mateo involves a high intensity light which will remove the skin layer by layer with extreme accuracy. As new skin cells grow during the healing process, they form a tighter and smoother looking surface. Laser skin rejuvenation is very effective for removing wrinkles around the eyes, mouth, and forehead. The procedure can take some time but is nonetheless offered as an outpatient procedure.

However, lasers can be used for other procedures as well, such as hair removal. If you have hair growing where it is not wanted, we can use lasers to remove it and prevent it from growing.

Tattoo Removal

Yet another procedure is the tattoo removal. This can be a big issue for many people because they may have a tattoo applied anywhere on the body, and very often where it shows up all the time, such as face, neck, forearms, and so on. Very often, the tattoo will be to honor a partner, but the problem can be that those partnerships can break up some time later, and now you can have the name of someone displayed on your body whom you would rather forget.

Well, today we can use a laser to remove that tattoo so that you can carry on with your life without a constant reminder of a relationship that has soured.

Lasers can also be used to deal with the after-effects of acne. When acne heals it can often leave behind scars and hyperpigmentation, and our laser therapy can remove these blemishes. It can also be used beneficially for inflammatory acne.

Another problem for many people is warts. An ablative CO2 laser can be used to remove warts, scars, and deep wrinkles, while an Erbium ablative laser is used to deal with fine lines and wrinkles. Both lasers work by removing layers of skin.

If you think that laser skin rejuvenation in San Mateo could be an appropriate treatment for your particular skin condition, you will be pleased to know that our team is happy to provide you with a totally free consultation when we can assess your skin and advise you as to the best course of treatment.
