Laser Photorejuvenation

Over the years the skin is exposed to many factors that cause ageing of the skin. These include sun exposure, smoking, ageing causing loss of elasticity in the skin, family history, cold wind and pollutants.

These factors lead to loss of collagen production and therefore loss of elasticity of the skin causing wrinkles. There is also an increase in pore size leading to roughness and increased redness. Sunlight exposure may cause hyper-pigmentation and sunspots leading to an overall dull complexion which detracts from well being and appearance.

Solihull Medical Cosmetic Clinic offers a new laser procedure called photorejuvenation. This popular treatment causes new collagen formation within the skin after low dose treatments. Red blemishes from broken vessels and brown pigment from sun damaged skin all respond to the Nd:YAG laser. This latest non-invasive technology, rejuvenates both the superficial and deep skin layers giving dramatic improvements in skin texture, fine lines, large pores and facial redness and pigmentary changes. The result is younger, fresh looking skin. Results can be dramatically enhanced by combining with acid peel treatments.

How many treatments are required?

Usually 5 or 6 treatments, 2 weeks apart.

What other areas can be treated?

The same treatment can be effectively used on the neck, chest and hands.
