We all want a smooth, even, youthful-looking complexion. However, the sun, skin disorders, aging, and even genetics can all contribute to skin irregularities on the face and elsewhere on the body. These include textural irregularities like wrinkles and acne scars and pigmentation changes like freckles, sunspots, or visible blood vessels. In addition, skin may lose tone, feel less firm, and lose the healthy glow that is evident in younger skin.
At MDSkin®, we offer a selection of the most effective nonsurgical skin solution to help address any skin irregularities you may have.
TREATMENT OPTIONS
There are different treatment modalities available to treat the different aspects of skin damage. Laser resurfacing, mechanical resurfacing, chemical peels, and injectable products can improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles on the entire face or those that develop in specific regions of the face, such as the upper lip and around the eyes. These treatments can also be used to address pigmentation disorders, such as sun and age spots, and they can be used to improve the appearance of acne scars or other skin conditions.
The specific type of treatment that will best address your concerns are determined after a consultation with your board-certified plastic surgeon or provider at MDSkin®. Most skin treatments require a series of treatments and a multi-modality approach to achieving excellent results. Most importantly, the patient must be committed to protecting his or her skin going forward so that the results achieved will be longer lasting.
