Laser Treatment for Acne and Acne Scars in Cosmolaser Medical Centre, Sharjah
Dr Hanish Babu, MD, Dermatologist & Cosmetologist, Cosmolaser Medical Centre, Sharjah.
Acne treatment with medications may not completely remove the acne blemishes and scars. In such situations, laser treatment can be effective in relieving the acne problem and reducing the unsightly scars formed by acne lesions.
Cosmolaser Sharjah offers a comprehensive laser acne treatment protocol for the problem of acne. Our NdYag laser treatment for acne targets the overactive sebaceous glands and reduce the inflammatory reaction, thus limiting new acne formation. The laser treatment also accelerates the healing process by stimulating collage remodelling, important in the long-term management of acne.
For acne scars, Cosmolaser offers a precise and gentle resurfacing procedure. Our Er:Yag laser beam is absorbed by the top layers of the skin to vaporize scar tissue at the same time stimulating new collagen formation in the dermis.
Laser treatment of acne and acne scars in Cosmolaser provides faster results, without any significant side effects.
