Laser Resurfacing Results After Age 60

Laser resurfacing can have nice results in the appropriate patients.  Without seeing your before pictures or knowing more about your clinical situation, it is impossible to give you specific advice.  Some patients have the impression that a quick laser treatment is equivalent to a facelift surgery.  However, there really is no substitute.  Lasers are good for fine lines and very minimal tightening.  Don't expect miracles from lasers.  If it seems too good to be true - low cost, minimal downtime, miraculous results - then it probably is not true.  

 

Good Luck.

Laser resurfacing treatments can be effective at any age, but patient selection is important. A dermatologist should help you determine which areas are most in need of improvement, be it texture and tone, old scarring, or dynamic wrinkles (Botox), or volume loss in the mid or lower face (fillers). Or, whether a facelift is necessary if there is too much sagging.
