Laser skin resurfacing has revolutionized the field of cosmetic surgery, offering a noninvasive alternative for skin rejuvenation. Non-ablative and CO2 ablative lasers are applied to the skin to gently remove damaged cells and make room for new cell regeneration and collagen production. Dr. Jerry Chidester, a board-certified plastic and reconstructive surgeon at The Plastics Clinic in South Jordan, UT utilizes his expertise in laser skin resurfacing to help transform the lives of his patients. There are numerous benefits to laser skin resurfacing. Let's delve into three specific skin conditions that can be improved by this advanced procedure: scars, sun spots, and hyperpigmentation.

Can nonsurgical laser skin resurfacing diminish scars?

Scars can often leave a physical and emotional mark, impacting an individual's self-confidence. Dr. Chidester uses the Alma Hybrid™, an innovative laser that is gently applied to the skin during a short, easy session. He uses nonsurgical laser skin resurfacing as an effective solution to diminish the appearance of these skin imperfections. The laser's thermal energy precisely targets the scar tissue, promoting new, healthy skin growth and improved texture. Whether acne scars, surgical scars, or scars from injuries, patients have observed significant improvement in skin smoothness and overall complexion.

Can sun spots be banished with laser skin resurfacing?

Sun spots, also known as age spots or liver spots, can be a telltale sign of aging and extensive sun exposure. Though harmless, stubborn discolorations can detract from your skin's youthful glow. With the help of laser skin resurfacing, Dr. Chidester has successfully reduced these signs of aging. The laser light targets the melanin, causing it to break up and gradually fade away. The result? A more even, radiant skin tone.

Can hyperpigmentation be treated with laser skin resurfacing?

Hyperpigmentation, characterized by dark patches on the skin, can be a source of insecurity for many. These can arise due to hormonal changes, acne, or simply aging. The laser skin resurfacing procedure offers an effective means to address this issue. The procedure safely removes the excessive pigment while triggering the growth of new skin cells, restoring a balanced, luminous complexion.
