Bay Area Aesthetic Surgery has incorporated the Cynosure SmartSkin laser into our suite of advanced technology. SmartSkin is a carbon dioxide (CO2) laser platform used to treat common facial signs of aging, including wrinkles and lines, by resurfacing and tightening the skin. Treatment is minimally invasive, with little downtime and quick recovery.
Candidates for SmartSkin Laser Skin Resurfacing and Tightening
SmartSkin is suitable for anyone with visible signs of aging around the face, such as:
- Lines
- Wrinkles
- Crows’ feet
- Droopy eyelids and eyebrows
- Dark circles under the eyes
Bay Area Aesthetic Surgery has been designated as Cynosure Clinical Training Center in the Greater San Francisco Bay Area.
Treatment is completely customizable to meet the specific needs of the patient.
The SmartSkin CO2 laser makes tiny holes in the damaged collagen of the skin. The skin responds by producing new collagen to essentially “remodel” the injured tissue. The SmartSkin laser can be adjusted to reach different depths within the skin. The result is an overall rejuvenation in the skin and reduction of lines, sagginess and other common cosmetic concerns. Three to five treatments is usually recommended, but our team can make specific recommendations during a personal consultation.
Recuperation
Treatment with the SmartSkin laser requires minimal downtime. Patients may experience some redness, dryness and tightening, which is normal. It is important, however, to avoid the sun while recovering from any laser skin resurfacing treatment.
The results will appear during the weeks following treatment. When performed by Dr. Liu and his team, board-certified and highly regarded San Francisco / San Jose laser skin resurfacing and tightening specialists, the results may last for years.
Other Options
SmartSkin CO2 laser skin resurfacing therapy is one of many treatment options for San Jose, San Mateo and San Francisco cosmetic surgery patients who want to reduce the effects of aging. Additional facial beautification procedures include microdermabrasion in San Francisco, DermaSweep, hydro-assisted dermabrasion and chemical peels, such as Vi peel and Pumpkin peel.
