1 Hospitals For Laser Collagen Stimulation In Kentucky

Laser Collagen Stimulation (click for worldwide facilities list): Cosmetic laser surgery works by heating tissue. Laser generated heat can be used to vaporize or remove unwanted skin tissue like a skin wrinkle. Heat can also be used to stimulate the new growth of tissue for example new collagen in the skin. What is so special about this technique is that the heat produced can be very specifically and accurately directed to heat only the tissue that is to be removed or affected, and not heat the normal surrounding tissues that are to be left in place.

Laser stimulation of new skin collagen or skin plumping laser treatments creates a regeneration of collagen fibers and contraction of the tissue, resulting in a healthier, younger looking skin.

Sun damage and aging destroy the collagen in the deep layer of our skin called the dermis. The dermis is that pink or red tissue that you see when you scrape your knee. When the dermis of the skin loses collagen, the skin becomes lax and wrinkles. When the dermis is irritated or inflamed it responds by producing new collagen to plump the skin and fill wrinkles.

New, non-ablative fractional erbium resurfacing lasers can go through the surface of the skin and inflame the dermis and cause the production of new collagen. Examples are the Fraxel, the Lux1440 and Lux1540 Erbium, and the 980 nm solid state diode laser machines. Because the skin is not ablated there is minimal redness and recovery time.
