Combining laser therapies for optimal outcomes in treating the aging face and acne scars

Abstract

Aging and sun damage of the skin results in skin laxity, rhytides, texture irregularities, dyspigmentation, and vascular changes. Many different laser devices are frequently used to correct these changes from age and photodamage. This article describes the author's experience in combining laser technologies (different wavelengths and applications) in one treatment session to achieve better outcomes with fewer visits for the patient.
