Question 2: |
Why are laser treatments
better than other types of skin rejuvenation treatments? |
|
Answer
2: |
Because they are less invasive
than other types of treatments. For younger patients that do not need
plastic surgery, laser surgery is easier, less painful, and there is no
"down time."
For patients who cannot have
plastic surgery for medical or other reasons, laser treatments are ideal
because they do not require general anesthesia and patients can
immediately return to work or daily schedules.
Oftentimes, laser surgery will
be used to augment plastic surgery to remove the effects of photo damage
such as red and brown spots. |
