Laser treatments combine the latest technology to address multiple skin and scar related changes.
They are a corner stone of skin care, maintenance and rejuvenation. The powerful effects of lasers result from the utilisation of intense beams of coherent monochromatic light targeted at specific tissue elements creating focal controlled injuries that lead to tissue regeneration and rejuvenation.
There are a number of different laser treatment offered at Clinispa aimed at improving skin tone, skin surface texture, fine lines and wrinkles, skin colour and crepiness.
Dualmode Laser – Combines fractionated technology harnessing the power of Erbium:YAG and CO2.
Dualmode focuses 1000’s of very fine columns of light energy to penetrate the outer layer of the skin into the underlying dermis. The columns of light energy result in vaporisation and coagulation of the tissue stimulating the body’s own healing response to produce new collagen and elastin.
This allows resurfacing of the epidermal layer combined with stimulation and rejuvenation of the underlying dermis. The epidermal changes result in reduction of fine wrinkles, improved skin tone and texture while the dermal changes improve skin quality, reduce crepiness and improve wrinkles.
The advantage of fractionated technology means that interspersed between the columns of light energy there are untouched and uninjured skin cells. These cells form the basis for rapid healing ultimately leading to reduced downtime while maintaining the powerful results. Traditional laser treatments would cause injury to the entire top layer of the skin resulting in prolonged healing times and increased risk of complications.
Dualmode lasers are therefore a powerful way to also improve scar quality. The epidermal layer is often thinner and more fragile in scars and the dermal layer is thickened and firm with irregular deposition of collagen. Dualmode laser treatment can result in improved quality and texture of the epidermis reducing fragility, reduced redness by shrinking small blood vessels and thinning and re-orientating collagen in the dermis producing softer thinner scars.
