Why THIS Is An Ideal Time for Laser Rejuvenation Of Your Face

Look at your calendar for the next three
months. It is probably the emptiest it has ever been
and scattered question marks are plentiful. If you have
been looking in the mirror lately, and wondering what
happened to your youthful appearance, now isthe time
to do something about it. Dr. Norris at Nicole Norris
MD Medical Spa told us that her schedule has been
very busy the last six months of 2020 because patients
are more willing than ever to have a little down time
torejuvenate theirlook.Notonly areoursocial calendars
lean, butwe are stillwearing masksin most public places.
Dr. Norris explains, “In my non-surgical
cosmetic office, we offer a plethora of anti-aging
procedures. In the past, the most popular procedures
have been the ones with the least down-time, even
though it takes multiple treatments to see the reward
of younger looking skin. Since COVID entered the
picture and stunted our social lives, patients are
much more willing to do more aggressive procedures
to reach their cosmetic goals. More intense nonsurgical anti-aging procedures might involve needles
or lasers and may require a weekend of staying home.
Many patients don’t want others to know they had
something done. Prior to 2020, downtime use to
be a lot to ask of my busy patients, but not now!”
Dr. Norris continues, “One of our most effective
skin rejuvenation procedures is laser resurfacing done
with a fractional ablative CO2 laser. Skin is one of our
few regenerative body parts.When itisinjured,the body
reacts by making brand new skin. With this specific
procedure, a fractional laser is used to ablate a fraction
of the skin with heat energy after it has been numbed.
The body recognizes this injury and immediately
begins a robust response to heal and make new skin
in the treated area. The patient who is ideal for this
is someone who has lines, loose skin, loss of collagen
and/or acne scarring. This type of laser is only safe to
use on lighter skin types in patients who are willing to
protect their skin from the sun after their procedure.
After an in-depth consultation, the patient and I decide
on how many days they will need to stay home after
their procedure so their face can heal properly. This is
one of my favorite procedures because of the marked
improvement patients see in the mirror over the next
month. These patients not only get younger looking
skin, but they get a spring in their step!”

Some patients may not be a good candidate
for laser resurfacing to make them appear refreshed.
Dr. Norris explained further, “There are other ways
to injure the skin and stimulate the body to make new
skin. Microneedling for anti-aging is very popular in
our office because there is really only part of a day that
we ask you to not wear make-up. This treatment is
done by a device that injects very small needlesin numb
skin at different depths. Microneedling is done in a
series of 3-6 treatments yearly and can be done on any
skin type. Another option to naturally turn back the
hands of time are chemical peels. Chemical peels are
essentially an injury to the skin with brief applications
of different strengths of acids. Patients will have some
eraser shaving-like peeling 3-10 days depending on
the strength of the peel. Chemical peels are also done
in a series building up to stronger peels. There is not
down-time with chemical peels because your skin just
looks a little dry 2-3 days after. Some patients even do
a combination of these procedures to get the results
they want. Since all these procedures, including laser
resurfacing, microneedling and peels, require our own
body to rejuvenate us, itisimpossible to look over done!”
If you are looking for naturalskin rejuvenation
and want to take advantage of your sparse social
calender, call Nicole Norris MD Medical Spa for your
consultation with Dr. Norris. If you are a new patient,
your $99 consultation fee for skin rejuvenation will go
toward your procedure or package over $399 in March!
