True or False: Understanding Band Aid Laser Skin Resurfacing
Aging is inevitable. As are the effects of aging and how the years can impact the quality of a person’s skin. Even people who go to great lengths to develop and maintain effective skincare routines will not be able to prevent common signs of aging like wrinkles, fine lines, and a dulled complexion. But that inevitability doesn’t mean that there aren’t outstanding cosmetic solutions available to help rejuvenate the skin and fight off these effects. Today, I wanted to go into detail about my signature Band Aid Laser Skin Resurfacing procedure by answering a few true and false statements on the subject.
True or False: I Might Only Need One Band Aid Laser Skin Resurfacing Treatment
This is true. While it is not a guarantee, many patients are able to achieve the facial rejuvenation they desire after just one treatment session. As new collagen continues to produce following your treatment, the results will become more pronounced in the days and weeks following treatment. We will discuss your specific needs and develop an appropriate treatment plan at your pre-treatment consultation appointment.
True or False: Band Aid Laser Skin Resurfacing Can Be a Substitute to Plastic Surgery
This is false. The benefits of Band Aid Laser Skin Resurfacing treatments are not intended to replace or be a substitute for plastic surgery. Band Aid Laser Skin Resurfacing is unique among the procedures I perform in its ability to repair damage on the skin’s surface. In addition to making the skin smoother, it can also effectively address age spots, sun damage, and even improve scarring and acne that plastic surgery is not intended to treat. In fact, many patients utilize Band Aid Laser Skin Resurfacing after they have undergone a plastic surgery procedure like a facelift in order to maximize their results.
True or False: There Will Be No Downtime Required After Band Aid Laser Skin Resurfacing
This is false, but this downtime is short. Additionally, despite how powerful the anti-aging results can be from this treatment for the face, patients will be able to resume their normal daily activities as soon as one day, but will need at least a week before starting back any intense workout routines. Patients will experience some degree of facial redness (similar to a sunburn) (and some temporary oozing and crusting) after Band Aid Laser Skin Resurfacing, but this is minor and will fade in about a week or so following your treatment. It is also important to note that the patient will need to avoid sun until the face is fully healed at which time they can wear sunscreen. All of these details will be reviewed prior to treatment.
My Band Aid Laser Skin Resurfacing procedure can be an excellent solution for a wide variety of aesthetic issues. If you think that you might be a good candidate for this treatment, I advise you to reach out and inquire about a consultation to confirm if it’s the right fit for your needs.
