If you’re considering skin rejuvenation through laser treatments, you’ve got a lot of options. In fact, there are so many that it can get a little overwhelming. But don’t worry – there’s an upside. Because of all of the options available, you can get an incredibly customizable treatment suited to your specific needs.

At Best Self Medical Arts, we’re here to help you decide on the ideal treatment for you. If you’re torn on whether or not you should seek ablative or non-ablative laser treatments, we’d love to discuss them with you.

Ablative Laser Treatments

If you’re looking to reverse sun damage or just the aging process in general, an ablative treatment may be right for you. By removing the top few layers of skin, ablative laser treatments have been proven to be very effective for treating the following:

• Uneven Skin Tone
• Fine to Moderate Wrinkles
• Liver Spots
• Sun Damage
• Acne/Chickenpox Scars

While there is a little downtime involved, an ablative treatment can take years off of your appearance with a simple procedure. Ablative treatments are more invasive, but they deliver dramatic, long-lasting results after as little as one session.

Non-Ablative Treatments

If you are looking to treat a different skin issue or just don’t have the time for an ablative treatment, a non-ablative treatment may be the answer. Non-ablative treatments penetrate through the top layers of skin to get down into the dermis to stimulate collagen production, causing the skin itself to heal over time and reverse damage from the following skin conditions:

• Age Spots
• Scars
• Sun Damage
• Wrinkles

Typically, several treatments are needed, but downtime and side effects are mild. This makes it ideal for people who have moderate to mild damage, can’t take time off of work, and are fine with gradual skin repair happening over time.

What’s Right For Me?

First off, it’s important to remember that both kinds of laser treatments have upsides and downsides. It’s really a matter of what you’re looking for and the type of skin damage you want to treat. Downtime is also a factor. If you’re curious about whether or not either treatment is right for you, our staff at Best Self Medical Arts can help you decide on a plan to get you comfortable in your own skin. You’ll be in good hands.
