As demand for laser treatments has increased exponentially, more and more people are suffering from poorly done treatments.Although there is no data on exactly how many or what percentage of treatments are wrongly done, the effects are clear:
- Burning
- Scarring
- Pain
Remember, lasers are powerful tools. They can be used to cut steel, and when they are applied to your skin, they can cause extreme damage.
The basic process of laser skin resurfacing is essentially to vaporize the surface layer of your skin.The goal of laser hair removal is to preferentially kill your hair follicles with heat.In laser tattoo removal, the laser breaks down the pigment molecules of the tattoo.In all cases, the goal is to utilize the high power of the laser to destroy unwanted skin, hair, or pigment.Because of the laser’s high power, it can easily damage adjacent tissue, killing nerves and causing deep damage to the skin.
If you are considering getting laser skin resurfacing or laser hair removal to improve your appearance, or want to remove an old, fading, even stretching tattoo, make sure to get your treatment done in a fully certified facility by trained technicians under the direct supervision of cosmetic surgeons.
