Facial Rejuvenation – Fine Wrinkle Removal – Photofacials
Dr. Shia Wolgelernter, M.D. specializes in Toronto facial rejuvenation and fine wrinkle removal, offering laser-based photofacial treatments designed to improve the appearance of sun-damaged skin.
The Laser Solution for Skin Damage
Are you a candidate for facial rejuvenation, also known as photofacials? The answer may be yes if your skin shows signs of chronic exposure to the sun’s ultraviolet light.
Physicians call this condition photodamage. The most obvious signs include coarsening of skin texture, wrinkling, irregular pigmentation, enlarged blood vessels, and enlarged pores.
Skin rejuvenation is the visible improvement of sun-damaged skin through the use of pulse dye laser technology, which helps stimulate the underlying collagen and improve the skin’s overall appearance.
How Do I Know If I Have Photodamaged Skin?
If you are over 30 years old and enjoy an active lifestyle, your skin may already be showing signs of damage from sun exposure, environmental factors, and aging.
How Many Treatments Are Required?
Several treatments are typically required for full-face facial rejuvenation. The average treatment takes about 20 minutes, and results may become noticeable after a few treatments, usually over a period of about two months.
How Does Pulse Dye Laser Treatment Differ from CO2 Lasers, Chemical Peels, and Dermabrasion?
Unlike CO2 lasers, dermabrasion, or chemical peels that remove the outer skin and may require significant healing time, pulse dye laser treatment gently penetrates the skin without damaging the surface.
What Will I Look Like After Treatment?
Results will vary, but you should expect the skin to appear reddened after treatment. Most patients can return to normal activities immediately with minimal precautions, such as using sunscreen and protecting treated skin from sun exposure.
Fee to be determined at consultation.
Approximately $250 per session or a package of 5 for $1000.
