Questions About Skin Rejuvenation

In Beverly Hills and serving the Los Angeles area

What are some benefits of skin rejuvenation?
Laser skin rejuvenation can be performed in the office. Using the latest laser technology there is virtually no down time after your treatments. There is little or no risk of complications after your treatment and pain is minimal. If you do experience pain, over the counter pain medications are recommended.

How many treatments do I need to have?
To achieve optimal results, several treatments are recommended. Depending on your specific needs, and the depth of your wrinkles or blemishes, four to six treatments are scheduled.

Is laser skin rejuvenation dangerous?
Over the last several years, improvements to lasers and techniques have made laser skin rejuvenation safer and more effective. According to the American Association of Plastic Surgeons, people seeking laser rejuvenation increased over 100 percent since the year 2000.

Dr. Azizzadeh uses the Palomar Lux1540™ Fractional Laser, which allows for deep skin penetration that promotes faster healing times.

Can Dr. Azizzadeh help me with age spots?
To treat skin discolorations like age spots, rosacea, and other pigment related problems, Dr. Azizzadeh uses the state of the art Palomar StarLux IPL in a procedure called an IPL Photofacial.

Are the treatments painful?
During the treatments, which last from 20 to 40 minutes, you may feel some slight discomfort. After treatment, your skin will appear red and flushed, but that will go away after a few days. Dr. Azizzadeh may suggest over the counter pain medications if you experience any continued discomfort.

Are there any risks involved?
All medical treatments have a certain amount of risks. That is why it is important to seek out a highly trained cosmetic surgeon who specializes in facial plastic surgery. After treatment there may be mild swelling and discomfort. If your laser treatments are more than superficial, there is a greater possibility of future problems. Seeking a skilled cosmetic surgeon helps minimize these risks.

Many people are afraid to jump right into cosmetic procedures like facelifts. There are other cosmetic treatment options available that are non-invasive, but which can still greatly improve your appearance. If you are interested in finding out more about skin rejuvenation options in the Beverly Hills area, please contact Dr. Azizzadeh today to schedule an initial consultation.
