Would Laser Resurfacing work on deep lines around mouth area? (photos)

Fractional laser is an amazing and highly effective treatment in our office. We use the laser treatment to help with acne scars, large pores, fine wrinkles, tissue collagen loss, scars, sebaceous hyperplasia, active acne, and for brightening dark pigmentation. Although there are very strong fractional lasers such as CO2 laser, we use lighter treatments for corrective skincare and maintenance of results. Our Thulium fractional laser, clear and brilliant laser, and Ultra Thulium laser are excellent options in our clinic. We also perform CO2 fractional and erbium depending on skin tone and tolerance for downtime. Patients do have to use a Melarase cream before and after treatment to help further reduce pigmentation after laser. Dark spots can improve with these treatments. I recommend fractional laser for incisional scars as well, especially after plastic surgery.

Dear jill 95,I suggest consulting a local board certified facial plastic surgeon in-person to assist you in your decision-making. Examples of the most
common skin issues that are treated with laser skin resurfacing are as follows:
removal of facial wrinkles, removal of deep lines around the mouth and eyes,
treatment of facial scars, treatment of scarring related to acne, treatment of
areas of uneven skin pigmentation, removal of tattoos, and treatment of
precancerous skin conditions.Sincerely,Ross A. Clevens, MD, FACS

As we age, facial wrinkles and creases begin to appear around the lips and skin as the underlying collagen and elastin fibers begin to break down and wear out. Dermal fillers are used to immediately restore youthfulness and volume to the face. Dermal fillers can be used to plump thin lips, remove wrinkles, soften facial creases, revolumize shallow contours and improve the appearance of recessed scars. At Cosmetic Laser Dermatology, we offer various dermal fillers, including: Juvedurm, Voluma, Restylane, and Belotero.
