Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Ablative resurfacing is a powerful tool for rejuvenation of the aging face and for the treatment of a wide array of skin lesions. In the proper hands, it is a safe and effective way to treat many of the problems of photodamaged skin that surgery or nonablative methods cannot address. This article discusses the three most common modalities used in ablative facial resurfacing: chemical peels, dermabrasion, and laser resurfacing. Indications, mechanism of action, techniques, results, and complications all are reviewed. |
