Laser Toning – What to Expect

Laser technology has greatly advanced the arena of cosmetic enhancement.  We can now achieve amazing results with little to no invasiveness and with naturally progressing, rather than sudden, results. The gentle unveiling of a more youthful you is almost like aging backward.   At Metro Dermatology, laser toning is one of the procedures we recommend for patients who have cosmetic concerns such as:

  • Blotchiness of the skin
  • Damage from the sun
  • Melasma
  • Acne scarring

It has been found to be both safe and effective for all skin types.  The treatment is considered non-ablative.  It has the benefit of allowing you to return to your scheduled activities very quickly.  The laser toning process can plump, smooth and clarify your skin.  It also promotes collagen production and can even the overall tone of your skin.  The results of the treatment have an effect that becomes more enhanced as time passes.

Regular laser toning treatments can be likened to medical-grade facials.  They allow for superior maintenance of your skin’s health and beauty.  Regular treatments can improve:

  • Hyperpigmentation
  • Rosacea imperfections
  • Enlarged pores
  • Signs of aging

The treatment is convenient and hassle-free for most people.  At most, you may feel the warmth of the laser passing over your skin.

Who is a Good Candidate for Laser Toning?

Most people who prefer to get positive aesthetic results without downtime are excellent candidates for this treatment.  The treatment is also favored because it has much lower risk than invasive cosmetic procedures without sacrifice to effectiveness.  The treatment is not just for your face.  It can be used on other areas of your body as well.

Since the treatment is non-ablative, there is no damage to your skin.  Following the procedure, you will not immediately look different.  The treatment relies on your body’s own systems to dispose of the cell fragments broken down in the toning process.  As such, results will follow a process that appears natural, rather than a sudden, rapid and unnatural-looking change.

Laser toning is a wonderful way to achieve beautiful results without the intimidation of more aggressive treatments. At Metro Dermatology, our goal is to help you discover the best and most advanced options available for your cosmetic enhancement needs.  We welcome you to contact our office today for a consultation at one of our locations in Englewood, Elmhurst, Flushing, or the Bronx!
