What is laser treatment?

The skilled dermatology team has many years of experience treating patients using lasers to make them look younger, improve the appearance of their skin, and help them gain confidence.

What is laser treatment used for?

• Lines and wrinkles
• Age spots
• Birthmarks
• Uneven-toned skin
• Acne rosacea
• Acne scars and other scars
• Broken blood vessels and other vascular lesions 
• Unwanted facial or body hair
• Lax skin

Laser treatment helps revitalize your skin, improving its appearance without pain or downtime.

Is laser treatment right for me?

To find out if you’re a candidate for laser treatment at Redwood Empire Dermatology, your specialist reviews your medical history and desired results, checks your vital signs, and examines your skin or hair in areas you’re concerned about. They then tailor a treatment that matches your needs and aesthetic goals. 

What should I expect during laser treatment?

The first step of laser treatment is numbing the treatment area to make sure you avoid any discomfort. Your Redwood Empire Dermatology specialist gives you special glasses to protect your eyes from the laser. 

Using a handheld device, your provider emits laser energy into targeted areas of your skin. You might feel the sensation of rubber bands snapping, but it’s not extremely painful due to the numbing cream. The length of time your treatment lasts depends on the size of the treated areas.

What happens after the procedure?

Depending on which laser treatment you receive, you can expect some swelling, tenderness, redness or bruising at the treatment site, but these side effects are temporary. 

Over time as treated cells regenerate, you can expect smoother, younger-looking, even-toned skin, or reduced facial or body hair. Multiple laser treatment sessions spaced over time offer the most effective results. Your Redwood Empire Dermatology provider lets you know when to schedule your next treatment.
