Laser resurfacing

Laser skin resurfacing techniques utilize the focused energy of lasers to treat wrinkles, lines, sun and age spots; improving the overall tone and texture of skin. Fortunately, Dr. Weiss has been trained in the use of a variety of lasers designed to treat different conditions and to achieve outstanding results. Some equipment may combine more than one type of laser to treat multiple conditions in one session.

Dermal fillers

Dermal fillers are injectable solutions used to fill wrinkles, folds, scars, and other depressions in the surface of the skin. Fillers may be derived from materials as different types of collagen, fat, or hyaluronic acid – a naturally occurring material that helps skin retain moisture. Dermal fillers can also be used to enhance the fullness of one’s lips and to fill difficult-to-treat lines and folds.

Chemical peels

Chemical peels cause controlled damage to the skin in order to remove wrinkles, lines, and signs of aging and sun damage; encouraging the development of collagen during your skin’s natural healing process. There are several types of chemical peels to consider, each one treating the skin at different intensities, allowing physicians an opportunity to treat damage according to the level of severity. Recovery often may require days, and sometimes even weeks, for full recovery depending on the nature of the procedure.

Dermabrasion

Dermabrasion removes the upper layers of the epidermis, revealing fresh skin
as the healing process takes place. Micro-dermabrasion may also treat the top layers of skin, but is a more mild procedure to abrade the uppermost layers of skin. Deeper dermabrasion treatments are recommended for the treatment of moderate to severe acne scars. The amount of healing time may vary depending on the depth of treatment.
