Lasers Help With Acne Scar Removal

Some of us were lucky enough to never have to experience acne. However, many of us were not so lucky. Unfortunately, many of us have the acne scars to tell the story.

However, acne scar removal is possible without surgery through an amazing new approach called non-ablative lasers including smoothbean...

Fraxel....


and the YAG lasers.

The yag laser used for tattoo removal also treats acne scars in 5 sessions 3 weeks apart with no downtime. It also lightens dark skin color similar to the Fraxel laser at a fraction of the cost. Another recent addition is infrared for stretch marks- results are visible at the manufacturers sight at www.mylightwave.com. Also, the Vipeel is an excellent medium depth peel for all skin colors to lighten uneven color on the face for any complexion. Lastly, Artefilll, the long term filler has not been available since the manufacturer declared bankruptcy in December. Fillers currently available include Prevelle Silk, Restylane, Perlane, Juveder Ultra Plus, and Radiesse. A new long term filler is expected in late 2009 or early 2010.

Each of these treatments are about 3 to 4 weeks apart. It's important to understand that none of these treaments will remove deep scars 100% but you can see a significant improvement as seen below:

At Morris Westfried MD PC we have tested out many lasers for acne scar removal and in our professional opinion have found that the YAG Medlite laser can result in amazing results at a far lower cost.
