PROCEDURE DESCRIPTION		RECUPERATION AND HEALING
The procedure is done on an outpatient basis under sedation and local or general anesthesia. The superficial layers of the skin are removed by the pulsed laser. The advantage of the laser is that the depth of treatment is extremely controlled and predictable. The laser treatment also tightens the skin.		You will be sent home with specific written instructions. Depending on location, the treated areas are covered with a tape like covering or ointment. The treatment post operatively will prevent formation of a crust of scab. Healing will be complete in 7-10 days. Redness( pink color) will usually last from 1-6 months. Makeup can be worn once healing is complete 7-10 days.

OTHER OPTIONS		INSURANCE GUIDELINES
Other facial procedures such as blepharoplasty (eyelid lift) , face lift, rhinoplasty, cheek implants, etc. can be performed at the same time.		This procedure is now considered cosmetic and therefore is not covered by insurance. The patient is responsible for payment.
NOTE
The specific risks and the suitability of this procedure for a given individual can be determined only at the time of consultation. All surgical procedures have some degree of risk. Minor complications that do not affect the outcome occur occasionally. Major complications are unusual.
