All About Youth's Laser skin resurfacing, similar to having (6) Microdermabrasion procedures simultaneously, removes the outer layer of skin through the use of an Erbium YAG Laser. When repeated once a month over a five-month period, clients will notice at least a 50% improvement in the elasticity, fullness, texture, color, and appearance of their skin. Common treatment conditions include: 

• Fine wrinkles 
• Sagging Cheeks, Joules and Neck, Bags under the eyes 
• Sun damaged skin 
• Acne prone skin 
• Oily skin 
• Superficial age spots 
• Scar reduction 

Unlike chemical peels where it is all or nothing in one treatment plan, Laser skin resurfacing is a multiple step process that is both gradual and less invasive than older methods of exfoliation and Rejuvenates Collagen! Depending on the skin condition, most clients require 5-9 treatments, each spaced one month apart taking 30 minutes each. Anesthesia is not necessary, and because there is minimal irritation after the procedure, client do not need to worry about recuperation time. The results are truly amazing. Many patients see a remarkable reduction in fine lines and crows feet around the eyes. All About Youth Staff has personally benefited from these thirty-minute treatment sessions and recommend the procedure to anyone whose skin is aging prematurely. 

Unlike many other skin resurfacing techniques, Erbium YAG Laser skin resurfacing does not discriminate. It is ideal for heavily pigmented skin types including that of Hispanics, African Americans, and Asians. As many doctors and aestheticians will tell you, there are many contraindications for chemical and CO2 laser peels. Because there is no acid and minimal thermal effect, hypopigmentation and hyperpigmentation are non issues with Erbium YAG Laser skin resurfacing. In addition, there is minimal risk with this "lunch time" Laser skin peel procedure. It is also less expensive than traditional FaceLift procedures, and because treatments are spaced monthly, the cost can be deferred over months. 

This type of Erbium YAG Laser skin peel was pioneered by LaserScope. Hundreds have been successfully treated. During your consultation, you may request a sample of the Laser skin resurfacing treatment on your hand to verify its effectiveness and painlessness. Contact us for more information.

Laser Skin Resurfacing Vs. Conventional Face Lift 

A growing number of people prefer laser skin resurfacing to the conventional face lift. With a conventional face lift, a physician uses a scalpel to cut, remove and stretch your skin. 

With laser skin resurfacing, the outer layers of skin are essentially burned away, while the lower layers are tightened. A new layer of skin then exposed over the treated area, ultimately becoming a new, smoother surface layer of skin. 

When performing laser skin resurfacing, we at All About Youth are using Laserscope's new Venus™ Laser System. By carefully controlling the interaction between the laser energy and the skin, we can smooth the skin as well as eliminate the bleeding and potential
scarring associated with conventional surgical methods. 

Erbium YAG Laser Resurfacing procedures are considered cosmetic, and the patient is responsible for payment. The specific risks and the suitability of Erbium YAG Laser Resurfacing for a given individual can be determined only at the time of consultation. Unlike invasive surgical procedures there is very little degree of risk. Minor complications that do not affect the outcome occur occasionally. Major complications are very rare.
