With Photo Facial we are trying to reverse some of those problems and also trying to correct some of the damage to the deeper layers of the skin called the dermis. This is the collagen and elastin layer and it is here that many of the features of aging, sun damaged skin originate.
PhotoFacial increases skin collagen (supporting tissue) and after several such treatments patients were noted to have much improved skin texture. The general redness had decreased, the skin was a more uniform colour and the skin generally looked healthier and more youthful.
Further investigation has shown that by using settings that are less intense than a full treatment and varying the parameters of the machine to effect different skin layers, the skin can be rejuvenated. Because the treatments are less intense there is very little immediate change in the skin so this is a ‘walk-in walk-out’ type of treatment.
Photo Facial offers clients a method of treating their sun damaged skin without the down time associated with deep skin peels or laser resurfacing. It it can dramatically reduce many of the damaging effects of the sun. |
