Best Photorejuvenation Treatments
Photorejuvenation refers to the treatment of pigmentation on the surface of the skin caused by chronic exposure to ultraviolet radiation (UV) from the sun.
Photorejuvenation procedures target and remove brown and red pigments from the skin and have long term benefits in preventing and managing the photo ageing process of the skin. Photoaging is also known as dermatoheliosis, which refers to the changing characteristics of unprotected skin that has been exposed to prolonged periods of sun exposure.
Photorejuvenation With AFT Laser Treatments
Anti Ageing Procedures
Photorejuvenation with AFT (Advanced Florescence Technology) laser treatments are advanced anti ageing procedures that combat the ageing of skin that has been exposed to direct sunlight. Overtime, long durations of sun exposure and environmental stress factors can cause structural damage to the skin, resulting in skin that appears looser and more hallow. AFT laser is the next generation of IPL laser treatments, and they are most commonly recommended by dermatologists and plastic surgeons for the effective treatment of sun spots, moles, lesions, and wrinkles. AFT treatments require minimal downtime with mild irritation that lasts for a few days post treatment.
Dr. Torgerson and the educated staff at his private Yorkville clinic is the best way to determine whether you can benefit from AFT–IPL photorejuvenation treatments.
