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.
