LASERS - WHO DOES IT
Board-certified dermatologists, plastic surgeons and facial plastic
surgeons appropriately perform laser treatments of the face.
Ablative lasers are generally performed on an outpatient basis and require an
accredited surgical setting, administration of anesthesia by a licensed
medical professional and may be used in conjunction with surgical procedures
of the face. Non-ablative laser treatments can be performed in an office
setting with an occcasional need for a topical numbing cream. They are often
used in conjunction with other treatments to achieve your goals. For wrinkle
removal, Botox, retinoids or fillers may be used in addition to the lasers.
For vein removal, your doctor may recommend sclerotherapy (injections) along with the laser.
