A laser face lift is a general term – like laser skin rejuvenation -- that describes the use laser technology to rejuvenate or resurface the top layers of the skin -- giving it a tighter, smoother appearance.
There is a new, painless laser skin treatments called CP6. This involves a series of 6 different laser treatments -- the last and sixth treatment uses Amber LED Photo modulation treatment which interacts with mitochondria of the skin cells -- increasing collagen, eliminating wrinkles, shrinking pores, and improving tone and texture.
Benefits of the CP6 Non Surgical Laser Face Lift
Laser skin treatment has many advantages over other treatments such as chemical peels, because it’s much more precise and there is little or no bleeding. This procedure is quick and takes anywhere from 20 minutes to one hour, depending on how large of an area is being resurfaced.
Laser treatments can be done on specific areas of the face that are prone to wrinkling -- like the eye area (i.e., crows feet), or the mouth – or it can be done on the whole face.
How Long Will It Last
Recovery time is about 2 weeks but healing can take several months and final results last years. However, keep in mind that your skin will continue to age and you will most likely need to repeat this procedure every couple of years to maintain results.
The use of proper anti aging creams, like copper peptides, and good general skin care can prolong results or even eliminate the need for this procedure if done early enough, when you skin is still healthy.
Maintain Results
Copper peptides and facial exercising, is the best way to maintain results.
Especially, for those who are older and/or already have lots of skin damage a laser face lift could jump start your progress and then you can begin a good skin routine to maintain your results.
Side Effects
Side effects include temporary redness which can last for months during the healing process, crustiness, mild swelling, and increased sensitivity to sun.
Cost
The cost ranges anywhere from $2,000 to $5,000 depending on the doctor and how many areas of the face are done.
Is This For You?
