Laser Skin Resurfacing in Boca Raton

Laser skin resurfacing is an effective method for reducing wrinkles, acne scars, age spots and blemishes. It is equally effective in balancing skin tone and texture. There are several different types and brands of laser devices. Each has its own unique characteristics and purpose. The different names, categories and ratings can be a challenge to keep up with, even for those in the field and are positively overwhelming for the general consumer. Generally, we characterize a laser device by the light wavelength it emits. This determines which targets in the skin will absorb it. Longer wavelengths penetrate deeper. Secondly, the device’s pulse width is the rate at which it delivers the beam to the target area. Swifter pulses are more desirable for smaller targets.
