San Diego Laser Skin Resurfacing & Laser Hair Removal Specialists
Coastal Plastic Surgeons – Del Mar, Temecula, San Clemente, San Juan Capistrano
Using the latest laser technologies, Coastal Plastic Surgeons can help San Diego / Del Mar laser hair removal patients remove dark, unsightly hair from any area of the body safely and quickly. Sometimes called 'phototricholysis' or 'photoepilation', this procedure is now most commonly referred to as laser hair removal. The strong but cool laser light is selectively absorbed by the hair follicles, which stops the growth of additional hair.
Similarly, laser light of a different type can be used to treat those red-wine-colored small veins in the face called `hemangiomas` that come from genetics plus exposure to sun over the years. The laser light is absorbed by the red veins much more than the surrounding skin and as a result causes the vessel to snap shut and stick to itself. After some time, the body realizes those veins are no longer needed and lets them stay closed, after which, they shrink and become much less apparent, and sometimes completely disappear.
Fraxel re:pair Laser is an ablative laser which is FDA approved for the treatment of fine lines, wrinkles, sun damage, and aging skin. In addition we have utilized it for the treatment of superficial skin cancers. The treatment is done under local anesthesia with oral sedation and nerve blocks. The treatment takes about 30 minutes and there is a week downtime. We have seen amazing results with this laser, and our San Diego, Del Mar and Temecula laser skin resurfacing patients have been very pleased with their outcomes.
