The Lowdown on Cynosure

The Cynosure laser is a clinically proven aesthetic laser that provides comfortable treatments with efficacy. The treatment was created to address sun and age spots, sun-damaged skin and spider veins. One of the best methods for removing pigmented areas on your skin and diminishing the look of damage from the sun is laser technology.

Selective photothermolysis is the principle behind this treatment. The laser targets the molecules on your skin responsible for the lesions and damaged areas. The light energy or laser is selectively absorbed by the lesions and darker areas of your skin as heat. This tones the lesions and the damaged pigmented skin so it can be cleared by your body.

The Cynosure laser can be used to rejuvenate the skin on your neck, face, chest and hands. The benefits include a reduction in pigment changes and a decrease in wrinkles and scars. The heat produced by the laser is responsible for the skin rejuvenation. For optimal results, you may want to have a series of Cynosure laser treatments done.

Hyperpigmentation lesions appear as a darker shade on your skin. They often resemble a freckle, but they are usually much bigger. This type of lesion is most common with fairer skin. They can also appear on all skin tones due to damage caused by frequent sun exposure. The most common locations for age spots are the face, chest, arms, and hands.

The Cynosure laser treatment targets the melanin to clear away pigmented lesions. The heat emitted by the laser is absorbed by the darker pigmented lesions.

This is a state-of-the-art treatment. The procedure is known to be comfortable because of a device that is used to cool the surface tissues. Cold air is continuously blown onto the surface of your skin in the area being targeted by the laser energy. This enables a fast and extremely gentle treatment. The actual number of treatments needed depends on what area of your body you are having treated, among other factors.
