The job market is competitive, and appearances can mean everything, which is why so many women and men in Ohio are turning to cosmetic surgery to help them improve their appearance and enhance their self-confidence. At the same time, though, tighter budgets influence people’s choice of procedures. Last week my colleague Dr. Robert Heck highlighted injectable treatments like dermal fillers and BOTOX® Cosmetic in Columbus, Ohio; this week’s post will touch on a few skin and surgical treatments that are particularly popular with budget-conscious patients.
Laser Hair Removal
Why it’s so popular – Laser hair removal’s biggest benefit is convenience – imagine remarkably smoother skin without fussing with razors or tweezers on a daily basis. Treatment sessions take about 30 minutes; most patients require 4 to 7 sessions.
How it works – All laser hair removal systems aim to destroy the hair root and follicle through targeted laser energy. However, a few different approaches are available, so it is important that you understand what system your laser hair removal center in Columbus, Ohio offers, and whether that system will provide the highest degree of accuracy for your skin type. At our practice, we use the Cynosure Elite system, which offers variable wavelengths so that we can adjust the treatment intensity to match your skin type more precisely.
Laser Skin Rejuvenation
Why it’s so popular – Laser skin rejuvenation procedures minimize wrinkles and correct pigmentation problems. This procedure has a tightening effect that creates a younger look, and is effective for areas including the face, hands and chest, as well. Treatments generally take under an hour, and most patients require a touch-up once or twice a year.
How it works – Aesthetic skin laser treatments can help Columbus, Ohio women and men achieve dramatic improvements in not only the appearance but also the health of their skin. By destroying dead and discolored skin cells, this treatment stimulates regenerative cell formation, creating a fresh new look and promoting healthier tone and texture for the skin. At our practice we use an intense pulsed light treatment, which works somewhat like the lasers used in laser skin resurfacing, but allows for precise results with a wider range of skin colors and types.
