LASER SKIN RESURFACING in Beverly Hills, Long Beach California by Dr. Chugay Laser Skin Resurfacing, Laser Skin Resurfacing specialist in Beverly Hills, Long Beach California

Laser resurfacing uses a precise beam of laser light, most frequently known as carbon dioxide (CO2) or erbium (Erbium-YAG), to vaporize away the various layers of skin.

New types of lasers are constantly in development and will undoubtedly be added to the repertoire. Dr. Chugay's or other qualified surgeon's experience and recommendation is a better guide than the latest stories in the media.

Disadvantages Of Laser Skin Resurfacing

Every risk factor that is true for a Phenol Peel is doubly true for a CO2 Skin Resurfacing (Please, read about Phenol Peeling ). Recent data indicates that this procedure is almost guaranteed to cause pigmentations changes or scarring.

When it comes to Yag Lasers, they are simply less effective than Dermabrasion or TCA Peeling; yet, they are usually riskier.

Why Are Lasers So Popular?

Because they embody the spirit of the New Millennium and are a symbol of "space-age" technology. We simply want to believe that anything is possible with lasers. In truth, lasers are indispensable when it comes to HAIR REMOVAL, Vein or Tattoo Removal. However, we are yet to see their true benefit when it comes to Skin Resurfacing. Perhaps the next generation of lasers will do better. There are lasers that purport to cause new Collagen formation and skin regeneration - time will tell.
