• Acne Rosacea
Acne Rosacea is a common skin condition, and is often confused with active acne. It is actually caused by sun damage, frequently in your early years, showing up much later as redness and broken capillaries. And because the vessels enlarge over time, it is better to treat acne rosacea earlier rather than later.

• Sun Damage
We call it sun damage, you call it premature ageing, broken capillaries, wrinkles, pigmentation variations, freckles, age/liver spots, large pores and skin cancers. Wrinkles are a direct result of UV damage, usually at an early age. With this type of laser treatment, much of the damage caused by the sun can be reversed.

• Stretchmarks
We know just how embarassing stretchmarks can be, and we can help. Stretchmarks are easiest to treat when they first appear in adolescence during a rapid growth spurt. At this early stage, they are just red. Later they settle and become whiter than normal skin because the skin is stretched and there are fewer pigment cells than in the normal surrounding skin.

• Pigmentation
The most common pigmentation problems are in the form of freckles and brown spots. The body tries to protect itself from sun damage (UV radiation) by producing more melanins, which is the brown pigment in the skin. The fairer and thinner the skin, the more likely UV exposure will cause damage.
Other examples of pigmentation problems are vitiligo, and various types of birthmarks. All can be treated to some extent, and almost all require repeat laser treatments. Click here to learn more, or alternatively, download a printable pdf file on pigmentation.
