Both teenaged and adult patients in the New Orleans area often speak to a quality dermatologist about problems such as acne. Acne is no longer just a problem for teenagers. Instead, many men and women deal with adult acne well into their later years and may be troubled when over-the-counter acne products do not provide results. This is when patients in the area often come to visit with Dr. Mary Lupo of the Lupo Center for Aesthetic and General Dermatology to find out about laser skin treatments which may be beneficial for rejuvenating the skin and addressing acne and acne scars.
Laser skin treatments are incredibly popular. Technology has improved dramatically to allow patients to enjoy beautiful, healthy skin with ease. Dr. Mary Lupo is a board certified dermatologist who has a wide range of laser therapies designed to address many skin issues and can help patients choose the ones right for them.
One acne treatment that works for one patient may not work for another, so it is important for individuals to consult closely with a board certified dermatologist such as Dr. Mary Lupo to learn about the ways in which they can achieve more healthy looking skin. Acne treatments may range from over-the-counter medications to continued prescription product use along with light therapies, laser skin treatments, lesion injections, chemical peels, and microdermabrasion. An evaluation of the skin and a discussion of one’s medical history and past experiences with acne is the best way to determine what treatment option is best.
Laser treatments have come a long way and many patients can enjoy them without excessive downtime and healing that used to accompany these services. Some lasers specifically target and shrink enlarged oil glands. Laser treatments can rejuvenate the skin and while treating acne while also helping in reducing the appearance of hyperpigmentation and even fine lines and wrinkles associated with aging. By using laser treatments, patients can not only address their acne but turn back the hands of time on their face.
