Skin Resurfacing

I get this question often..."Am I a good candidate for skin resurfacing"? If you have any of the following conditions, you are a good candidate for skin resurfacing:
wrinkled or sun-damaged facial skin, vertical wrinkles around your mouth, such as those that cause lipstick "bleed", "crow's feet" lines around your eyes, acne or chicken pox scars or superficial facial scars from a past injury. There are many lasers on the market that help to resurface the skin (ablative, non-ablative and fractionated)...however there are also 'old school' methods that work great too, such as dermabrasion and medical grade chemical peels. The best option is to seek out a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to review your options. There is no reason anymore to live with skin that you are not happy with!
