Our skin goes through a lot as we age. Between being exposed to the elements and our sometimes lack of care, it is no wonder that our skin shows signs of aging. While there are some things we can do to protect our skin, sometimes it takes an expert like a dermatologist. Our board-certified team is a valuable resource to help maintain the health and appearance of your skin. While maintaining a healthy skin regimen at home is vitally important, some skin treatments require the services of an experienced dermatologist.
Chemical Peels
Most people have heard of how effective a medical-grade chemical peel can be when it comes to reducing the appearance of skin problems like scars, wrinkles, and blemishes. The treatment involves the application of a special solution in varying strengths and types. All chemical peels remove some portion of the outer skin layer to promote the development of fresher skin.
If you are looking for a type of gentle exfoliation, a superficial chemical peel will remove only the outermost skin layer composed of dead skin cells, fats, and cellular debris. This has the effect of lightning and brightening your complexion. Since these chemical peels only involve the application of gentle acids, they sometimes require repeated treatments at our office in Jupiter to obtain optimal results.
A medium or deeper chemical peel can reach deeper into your skin to correct problems like wrinkles and scars. These peels involve the application of stronger solutions and require downtime and aftercare. During your initial consultation with our dermatologist in Jupiter, you can learn more information about which type of peel may benefit you the most.
Laser Hair Removal
No matter where you require hair removal, a laser hair removal procedure could help you. In only minutes, the hair follicles producing the unwanted hair are destroyed in a safe and effective way. The process works through the targeted application of carefully controlled laser energy. The energy of the laser focuses on the hair pigment. In the weeks following your laser hair removal treatment, the treated hair will start to go away. Optimum results necessitate a series of laser treatments, but you may notice results after only one session.
