Laser Therapy

Laser therapy is a broad term that describes treatments that use a single wavelength of light to target specific cells in the skin. The light energy is converted to heat energy, resulting in damage to the targeted cells and also triggering the skin’s repair mechanism, thereby stimulating collagen production. There are numerous types and brands of laser devices that provide a broad range of applications. Examples include: laser hair removal, tattoo removal, skin rejuvenation, treatment for scars, and stretch marks, and removal of unwanted red or brown spots.
