Read on to learn about laser skin resurfacing and chemical peel in Toronto.

Skin Resurfacing in Toronto: Am I a Candidate?

Laser skin resurfacing is a sophisticated treatment that uses laser energy to gently remove the outer layers of skin and reveal the fresh skin underneath. The treatment also stimulates the production of collagen and improves the skin tone. Laser skin resurfacing can also be used to treat scars and facial pigmentation.

Chemical peel skin resurfacing works by causing the outer layer of skin to peel off over time. As a result, the damaged outer cells are removed and beautiful, new skin is revealed. You might be a Toronto chemical peel candidate if you wish to smooth fine lines and wrinkles, reduce the prominence of age spots, or minimize the signs of sun damage caused by overexposure to sunlight or tanning booths.

Preparing for Your Laser Skin Resurfacing Treatment

As with all other facial rejuvenation patients, Toronto skin resurfacing candidates should be in good overall health. Because smoking can interfere with treatment results, nonsmokers are the best candidates. Dr. Golger personally meets with all of his patients prior to their treatments to discuss the details of their procedures and answer their questions. In addition, Dr. Golger encourages his patients to voice any concerns so that he can address their worries and help them feel at ease and well taken care of.

Skin Resurfacing: Recovery and Results

Laser skin resurfacing and chemical peel are non-surgical facial rejuvenation procedures. However, they might require some downtime as they might cause temporary swelling and peeling. The extent of downtime depends on the precise nature of the treatment and the strength of the chemical peel used. Dr. Golger will explain exactly what to expect during the recovery period so that you are completely prepared. In addition, he closely monitors his Toronto skin resurfacing patients during the healing period to help ensure a smooth, quick recovery.

The results of skin resurfacing become apparent within a few weeks as the new skin is revealed. Depending on the skin condition and the extent of damage, a series of treatments might be needed to achieve the best possible results. Upon the completion of the treatment course, the skin will look smoother, more even and radiant. The results of skin resurfacing are long-lasting. However, follow-up treatments might be needed to maintain and extend the beautiful effects of the procedure.
