I have lines on my upper lip. They are not noticeable except in bright sunlight. The office where I inquired was cautious, but said they would do a mild Pearl laser resurfacing all over the face, and concentrate with higher settings on the upper lip area. Is it worth a try? Thanks.
Answer: Pearl laser is not good treament for "smoker's lines". The delicate wrinkling around your mouth will probably be not affected by the Pearl laser. If you have coincidental skin discoloration, which the Pearl does a great job on, then I would invest in the Pear (counting on a good result for the color issues and hoping for some improvement in the wrinkles). If the wrinkles are the only problem, I wouldn't bet on the Pearl.

Answer: CO2 laser to tighten the skin around the lips and reduce fine lines. 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. Melarase AM, Melarase PM, and Melapads can seriously improve surface sun damage and UV related pigmentation. Dark spots can improve with these treatments. I recommend fractional laser for incisional scars as well, especially after plastic surgery.
