Rejuvenate your skin with precision. Our laser treatments offer powerful, minimally invasive solutions designed to address signs of aging, sun damage, and skin irregularities—revealing smoother, clearer, and more radiant skin.
What is the recommended age to start considering laser treatments?
Laser treatments can be beneficial at various life stages. While there’s no specific age requirement, many patients begin in their late 20s to early 30s for preventative care, or later to correct visible aging and skin damage.
Can laser treatments be performed on darker skin tones?
Yes, but with caution. Dr. Hovsepian carefully selects laser technologies and adjusts settings to suit all skin tones, minimizing the risk of pigmentation issues while optimizing results for patients with deeper complexions.
Are there any medications that might interfere with laser treatments?
Certain medications, like photosensitizing antibiotics, Accutane, or blood thinners, may need to be paused prior to treatment. Dr. Hovsepian will review your full medical history to ensure your safety and the efficacy of your procedure.
How should I prepare my skin before a laser session?
Dr. Hovsepian typically recommends avoiding sun exposure, self-tanners, retinoids, and exfoliants for at least one to two weeks before treatment. A personalized pre-treatment regimen will be provided during your consultation.
Can laser treatments help with surgical scars or stretch marks?
Absolutely. Select laser modalities are highly effective for improving the texture, color, and visibility of both surgical scars and stretch marks. Dr. Hovsepian will assess the area to determine the most appropriate solution.
Is there a best season for undergoing laser treatments?
Many patients opt for laser treatments during fall and winter when sun exposure is naturally reduced. However, with proper post-treatment care, laser procedures can be performed year-round under Dr. Hovsepian’s guidance.
How often will I need maintenance treatments?
This depends on the type of laser used and your skincare routine. Some patients enjoy long-lasting results from a single session, while others may benefit from a series or annual touch-ups to maintain their outcome.
