Frequently Asked Questions About Hand Rejuvenation at Laser Lights

Uncategorized chemical peel Atlanta GA, hand aging, hand rejuvenation treatment, how can I rejuvenate my hands, skin care products

Our hands are sometimes neglected and only treated as tools that complete everyday tasks. With the amount of sun exposure and wear that they experience on a daily basis, hands can show signs of significant aging over time. Hand rejuvenation is an easy process for patients at Laser Lights with our advanced cosmetic treatments and customized options. To promote better patient education, we’re

How do hands age?

Often through a combination of sun damage, handling cleaning chemicals without gloves, collagen depletion, and loss of skin elasticity, hands can lose their youthful form and begin to look noticeably aged as early as a person’s 30s. Spots, patches of rough skin, wrinkles, loss of volume, and the emergence of visible veins are all potential cosmetic issues. People who don’t actively take care of their hands tend to have more substantial damage than those who use consistent treatment.

Which cosmetic treatment should I use for hand rejuvenation?

The process for hand rejuvenation differs with each patient. Since there are numerous factors that go into deciding which treatment route our experienced providers will use, patients are encouraged to schedule an in-person consultation. During this visit, the type of hand rejuvenation will be determined to produce the best possible results for you.

What hand rejuvenating options does Laser Lights offer?

Because hand rejuvenation should be specially customized for each patient, our providers at Laser Lights will recommend a combination of the following cosmetic treatments.

Dermal fillers
Cosmetic laser treatments
Chemical peels
Microdermabrasion
Sunscreen
Advanced skincare products

How do I prevent my hands from looking aged?

Aging is a natural part of life, but there is still a lot you can do to prevent your physical features from diminishing over time. Strategic prevention is the best solution for preserving and improving your hand rejuvenation. There are a few easy ways that patients can accomplish this. Applying SPF 30 sunscreen, wearing gloves when handling harsh cleaning chemicals, moisturizing skin and making follow-up cosmetic appointments are all important for great long-term results. Preventing future damage is typically easier than reversing aging that has already occurred.

How to Fade Stubborn Wrinkles

Uncategorized botox, cosmetic laser procedures, how to remove crow’s feet, skin care products, wrinkle removal

At Laser Lights Cosmetic Laser Center, we believe that every patient is entitled to vibrant and youthful skin—no matter their age. Wrinkles are a physical reminder of growing older, but they aren’t features that you have to accept. Our practice performs numerous treatments to safely fade your wrinkles.

Who is the right age for wrinkle treatment?

The answer to this question is—nobody! There is no “right age” for cosmetic wrinkle treatment. Each person’s skin changes at different rates, so it’s an outdated thought process to wait until you’re a certain age to start taking active measures to find a solution. Recently, there has been a growing trend of younger people in their 20s and 30s to start receiving wrinkle-prevention procedures such as Botox^® and chemical peels before their wrinkles become more obvious.

Why am I developing wrinkles?

Most wrinkles develop on areas of the body that receive the most sun exposure: hands, forearms, neck and face. Because of varying degrees of sunlight-contact, genetics, facial expressions, and lifestyle habits, people develop wrinkles at their own unique rate. You could be developing wrinkles due to any one of these mentioned contributors. In addition, skin loses elastin and collagen with age, so wrinkles deepen into the skin over time, no matter your lifestyle.

What can Laser Lights do about my wrinkles?

We provide customized treatment for patients of all ages and skin types. Whether you’re just starting to notice your fine lines and wrinkles, or you’ve had them for years, we can help diminish them to give you a more refreshed appearance.

A Laser Lights cosmetic laser technician can use our Fractionated CO2 Laser to treat fine facial lines as well as deep wrinkles. It emits pulsed beams of light to accurately target the areas of skin that have visible signs of aging. This comprehensive laser also improves the look of age spots, acne scars and other blemishes. Plus, this is a work-friendly procedure because there’s minimal recovery time required.

You’ve probably already heard of Botox^® and Dysport^®, but if not, these cosmetic injectables are the most popular nonsurgical methods to take a stance against wrinkles. These treatments work by temporarily preventing muscle contractions that cause wrinkles and are quite popular with millennials for wrinkle prevention. The results from an injection typically last for about three to four months.

Cosmetic skincare products are excellent tools to supplement the results after your injectables or Fractionated CO2 Laser treatment. Laser Lights offers everything from cleansers to sunscreens to mineral makeup. We have products that can fit any of our beauty needs. Our experienced providers can help you find the precise product and brand that brings out your best cosmetic qualities.

Nobody is immune to wrinkles during their natural aging process. Laser Lights Cosmetic Laser Center is committed to helping our patients fade and diminish them without complicated procedures. Our approach is directly tailored to the needs of each individual, so the final results can make you look and feel younger. For more information, contact our office at (770) 495-9322.

Start Caring for Skin Sooner: Skin Care Tips for Teens

It’s human nature to want to look our best, and you may even remember a time when looking your best didn’t require as much work. Although teenagers and people in their 20s can often get by with a minimalist’s skin care routine, taking care of skin early in life will help keep it looking great longer. While we often share tips for skin rejuvenation and restoring a youthful look, we would like to use this blog to encourage healthy skin care habits beginning at a young age.

Summer is the perfect time for teens and pre-teens to begin practicing a regular skin care routine since it can be difficult to make time for skin care when school’s in session. Although teenagers are often very concerned with acne and their appearance overall, they do not always take steps to control it because many simply do not know where to start. It is important to understand that your skin’s condition is as unique as you, so products that work for one person may not help someone else. No matter what type of skin care products you choose, there are certain steps that should be taken daily for better skin no matter what your age.

It’s important to wash your face at least twice daily. If you have teenagers, start by buying them a generic over-the-counter facial cleanser that is gentle on skin. Do not teach teens to pop pimples or pick at acne as doing so can lead to unsightly scars. Using a toner or astringent after washing the face can further benefit the skin by helping to balance PH levels. Teens usually benefit from products containing salicylic acid and glycolic acid that target acne-causing sebum without irritating the skin.

The most important skin care tip for young people is ALWAYS WEAR SUNSCREEN and AVOID TANNING BEDS! Not only does sun damage cause uneven pigmentation, melasma, and eventually wrinkles, but it can also cause skin cancer. We recommend using SPF 30 sunscreen daily and reapplying often. You can even go a step further in caring for your skin by choosing a mineral makeup with SPF included to wear over sunscreen for added protection.

If you have teenagers, it’s important to teach them how to take care of their skin, but it’s also important to know when it’s time to seek help. If your child’s skin conditions do not respond to over-the-counter treatments, take them to a professional. A dermatologist may prescribe topical or oral medications to treat active condition(s), but certain concerns may also be helped with cosmetic skin treatments. Microdermabrasion and certain chemical peels and facials can improve the appearance of uneven pigmentation, acne, and acne scarring, and patients with severe acne may benefit from acne light therapy.

Acne light therapy uses photodynamic therapy (PDT) to eliminate acne by shrinking over-active oil glands, killing bacteria within pores, and regulating skin cell turnover. Unlike harmful UV rays, PDT uses a blue light source that does not damage the skin. During treatment, a photosynthesizing agent is applied to the treatment area and is activated by the light source. Although patients notice results in one treatment, most patients receive multiple treatments over several weeks for optimal results. In fact, some patients choose to alternate between acne light treatments and chemical peels for even clearer skin.

The providers of Laser Lights know how important it is to teach children healthy skin care habits because the better they take care of their skin during youth, the better it looks down the road.

Anti-Aging Treatments: Use Caution with Unproven Treatments

Educational, In The News, Skin Care, Uncategorized anti- aging treatments, anti-aging creams, Atlanta chemical peel, Atlanta facial rejuvenation, Atlanta skin care treatments, chemical peels, cosmetic injectables, facial fillers, laser skin resurfacing in Atlanta, mercury in skincare products, microdermabrasion, microdermabrasion Atlanta, pre-treatment consultation, restore youthful appearance, skin care products, skin tightening, stimulate collagen production, Viora reaction, Viora reaction skin tightening Atlanta

Have you ever had a friend offer you a new anti-aging cream with promises of results nothing short of a miracle? Although many of these items seem too good to be true, we often fall for their cute packaging and lofty promises, but according to the US News and World Health Report, many commonly used over-the-counter anti-aging treatments may not produce the results they promise, and even worse, they could even be harmful. In fact, the FDA reported last March that skin care products containing mercury, which can damage the kidney and nervous system, have illegally found their way into the country. Since the FDA considers skin care products cosmetics rather than drugs, they are not required to go through the same extensive testing to determine safety or effectiveness.

Instead of spending time and money looking for skin care products that don’t work, it’s important to do your part in taking care of your skin by protecting it through wearing sunscreen, not smoking, and eating right. However, no matter how well you care for your skin, you will eventually experience signs of aging. Although many over-the-counter anti-aging creams are ineffective, there are skin care treatments that can rejuvenate the appearance.

Many factors like sun spots, fine lines, melasma, sagging skin and wrinkles contribute to an aged appearance, but we offer a variety of treatments at Laser Lights to treat each concern factor individually, as well as treatments that target multiple signs of aging at once. During a pre-treatment consultation, we listen and discuss your concerns and treatment goals while evaluating your skin to determine which treatment will best meet your needs.

Everyone’s anti-aging needs vary. Patients with lax skin of the face and neck often benefit from skin tightening treatment with Viora Reaction, while patients with wrinkles, melasma and uneven skin texture may benefit from laser skin resurfacing. Facial rejuvenation with cosmetic injectables and facial fillers provide the perfect options for patients bothered by wrinkles. Treatments like microdermabrasion and chemical peels can smooth an uneven complexion while stimulating collagen production.

With so many proven treatments to restore a youthful appearance, there’s no need to waste time with products that do not work. If you’re tired of spending a small fortune on creams that aren’t producing the results you’re after, then schedule a consultation with one of our licensed estheticians today.
