Our physicians offer a wide array of cosmetic procedures. A highlighted service is the treatment of facial wrinkles. With the advanced technology of the CO2 laser, the doctors are able to reduce or eliminate the effects of time on our skin.

We were all born with smooth, baby soft skin. As we go through life, exposure to the sun, smoking and less than optimal nutrition can accelerate the signs of aging. The doctors at Heaton Eye Associates have been treating patients for several years with tremendous results.

The CO2 laser allows precise alteration of damaged skin. With the first pass of the laser beam, the old skin is vaporized. Subsequent passes with the laser cause the collagen in the underlying layers to tighten, resulting in smoother, healthier looking skin. When compared to a chemical peel or dermabrasion, the CO2 laser allows the doctor to customize the surgery not only for each patient, but to each area of the face.

Since results can vary depending on your age, skin type and condition, a preliminary evaluation with your physician is necessary to determine if Laser Skin Resurfacing is recommended for treatment of your individual skin conditions.
