Aura Laser & Photo Rejuvenation

Wednesday, March 3rd, 2010

Aura laser is one of our classic lasers. We have been using it in one of its forms for over 13years. We think it is still the best laser for treating blood vessels and spider angioma. It is also a great laser for background redness and flushing, red and purple birthmarks like haemangiomas and port wine stains. And we use this laser for removing and lightening pigmented marks like freckles lentigines and chloasma.

 

The Aura laser is also used for a cosmetic procedure called photo rejuvenation. Photo rejuvenation is where we use the laser light to heat up the deep dermis where the fibroblasts live and then the fibroblast cells start to make new collagen which then crosslinks with elastin and plumps up and smooths the skin hence rejuvenation making the skin look as it was when you were younger.

 

But the best bit about the Aura laser is not just how effective this laser is, but that the laser has almost no downtime especially for rejuvenation. So it really is a walk in walk out laser treatment or cosmetic procedure in the case of photo rejuvenation.

 

An ideal person for aura may have some veins and pigmented spots also that get removed.
