How do laser treatments deliver skin-tightening effects?

Lasers, an acronym for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation, converts light into electromagnetic energy. Lasers work by creating heat in the deeper layers of skin. 

When it comes to laser hair removal, that heat damages the hair root, preventing normal regrowth. Regarding laser tattoo removal, the laser breaks apart ink particles, making them small enough to be processed and eliminated by your lymphatic system. 

Skin tightening uses laser energy to heat the deeper dermal layers, triggering new collagen and elastin production that smooths and tightens skin. Some lasers also evaporate the outermost layers of skin to reveal a layer of fresh, healthy cells. 

What kinds of laser treatments are available?

Erbium lasers use advanced technology to ablate (remove) the outermost layers of skin while also prompting renewal in the deeper layers. These treatments are a wonderful solution for superficial or moderate lines and wrinkles, creating a renewed and refreshed appearance. 

Moxi®

The Moxi laser by Sciton® is a gentle laser option that reduces the appearance of sun damage and aging. It’s a great fit for those who want to prevent and slow the visible signs of aging and is suitable for all skin tones and types. 

HALO®

The HALO laser by Sciton can remove years of sun damage, acne scarring, and lines and wrinkles. Treatments combine both ablative and non-ablative laser energy to create immediate improvements while prompting new collagen production.

Broadband Light Therapy (BBL)

These treatments are light-based but are not truly laser therapies. They use short bursts of broad-spectrum light energy and can improve hyperpigmentation, acne scarring, and redness. 

Dr. Madni can combine BBL and Moxi or HALO to enhance results further and remove signs of aging. 

When you rely on Dr. Madni for aesthetic care, you receive customized advice on which laser option is right for your needs and goals.  

Are laser treatments safe?

The technology used in medical aesthetic laser treatments is backed by decades of research and clinical trials. These systems have built-in controls that keep your skin at a safe and comfortable temperature while triggering new cell production. 

Numbing cream can help reduce sensations during laser treatments, and your practitioner is also happy to give you a break if you become uncomfortable during sessions. Most people find laser therapies to be so tolerable and affective that they make laser treatments part of their ongoing skin care routines.
