Laser Resurfacing Conveniently Located to Serve Kirkland and Bellevue

Laser Resurfacing Kirkland, WABoard-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Brad Remington is a top provider of laser resurfacing in Kirkland, WA. He offers personalized skin rejuvenation treatments with advanced laser devices to minimize fine lines and wrinkles, even out pigmentation, and reduce enlarged pores.

What Is Laser Resurfacing?

Laser resurfacing devices emit concentrated beams of light energy to achieve improvements in skin texture, firmness, and tone. The laser heat works to stimulate increased collagen production and exfoliate damaged skin cells to lift pigmentation and brighten the complexion.

There are many types of lasers used to improve the discoloration and/or wrinkling of the skin. The first laser used for the skin was the CO2 laser which removed a fair amount of the skin layer, which was good to reduce the wrinkles, but also left the patient to recover with a red face for many months. The other concerns were a demarcation line between the treated and untreated areas and possible hyperpigmentation (dark areas) or hypopigmentation (light areas). Better lasers have been developed, namely erbium lasers and fractionated CO2 lasers. These lasers offer a good compromise between wrinkle and coloration differences of the skin and rapid recovery time. Recovery is typically 3 to 10 days with very nice results.

Good Candidates for Laser Resurfacing

If your skin concerns include sun damage, mild acne scars, fine lines, wrinkles, and/or uneven skin texture, you may be a good candidate for laser skin resurfacing in Kirkland, WA. Laser skin treatments can resolve mild to moderate signs of aging. However, plastic surgery is likely a more suitable intervention for patients with advanced signs of aging, such as considerable skin laxity, drooping tissue, and/or severe facial creases.

Thanks to advancements in cosmetic laser technology, patients of many skin types and skin tones can benefit from this treatment. However, specialized pre-treatments may be necessary to prevent hyperpigmentation in patients with darker skin tones.

Candidates must be physically healthy with no known history of keloid scarring. Patients with certain skin conditions and/or active skin infections may be better candidates for alternative skin treatments.

Your Consultation

Dr. Remington can determine whether laser skin resurfacing in Kirkland, WA is an ideal treatment for you during your consultation. In order to confirm your compatibility for a laser procedure, Dr. Remington will physically examine the areas you want to treat and review your medical history.

Be prepared to discuss any underlying conditions or illnesses that could get in the way of your healing. It is important to advise Dr. Remington of any prescription medications, supplements, and vitamins you are taking as well.
