Examples include the white scars that occur after face-lifts or aggressive facial laser procedures such as carbon dioxide laser resurfacing. A variety of burns and other traumatic accidents may also lead to hypopigmented scars. Doctors are currently researching the role of this laser in the treatment for chronic stretch marks that have lost their pigment. Treatment is undertaken in a series of laser sessions, and is absolutely painless. Improvement is the general rule. Occasional touch-up booster sessions may be required.
Treatment may be faster than most currently available treatments, and is undertaken in a series of laser sessions. It is absolutely painless; improvement is the general rule. Occasional touch-up booster sessions may be required.
Again, each office operates in its own individual way. In some instances, the consultation fee will go towards the first treatment. And in other cases, the consultation fee is completely separate from the cost of treatment.
Will my insurance cover treatment?
Most insurance companies will not pay for tattoo removal, since treatment is considered cosmetic. There are rare instances when tattoo removal might be considered medically necessary, such as an allergic reaction to the tattoo’s ink, or permanent marks on the skin due to trauma. There are also various programs that provide tattoo removal for a reduced cost, or for free if the tattoo is gang-related.
Multiple treatments are required to remove tattoos. Multi-coloured tattoos may require the use of more than one laser. Amateur tattoos tend to do better than professional tattoos. The rate at which tattoos are lightened relates directly to the quantity of ink present in the tattoo.

The laser used in hair removal targets the melanin (colour) in the hair follicle, damaging the follicle and removing the hair. Laser hair removal is safe enough to be used on all body parts, including the face, back, underarms, bikini line, legs, and arms.
For example, the CO2 laser is most effective on deep lines and wrinkles, as well as for full -face laser procedures. The Erbium: YAG laser is ideal for those with moderate lines and wrinkles and for those wanting to improve the overall texture of their skin. The Erbium: YAG is also effective on treating isolated areas, and other areas of the body, including the hands, chest and neck. Multi-mode laser resurfacing, which uses a combination of lasers, can further customise the procedure for a patient’s particular needs. Your doctor will assess the laser that is best for you.
The initial redness after the procedure will fade over a period of time. However, camouflage makeup may be used to cover the redness. As for side effects, as with any surgical procedure, there are risks associated with laser skin resurfacing. Your doctor will review with you in detail any risks involved in the procedure.
Laser treatment can be used for leg veins which respond poorly to sclerotherapy, or for patients who prefer to avoid needles. Smaller leg veins (up to 3 mm) may respond well to lasers and laser-like devices. Lasers used in this kind of treatment include the KTP laser and the newer long-pulse Nd: YAG laser. Your doctor will assess your specific situation.
The Short Laser treatment can also be combined with other procedures, making it an ideal complement to microdermabrasion, Anti-aging, and laser skin resurfacing for an overall facial rejuvenation.
Lines can be filled in by injecting a filler substance such as collagen, and the action of muscles causing certain lines can be weakened by using botulinum toxin, commonly called Anti-aging. Skin resurfacing can be accomplished with chemical peeling, manual dermabrasion, or laser resurfacing.
Generally, more aggressive, invasive procedures can produce quicker, more dramatic results but are more expensive, contain greater risks, and involve longer recovery periods.
Choosing the best approach depends upon an individual’s lifestyle and goals. It is best to consult with Dr. M. Khanna about the various treatment options available.
If you are interested in learning more about non-surgical face lift options, you may wish to speak with Dr. Manoj Khanna who is an experienced and knowledgeable cosmetic surgeon in this area. This expert can determine what procedure may be best for you and discuss the risks and benefits associated with prospective non-surgical face lift procedures.
There are some differences between instant face lift products, but most work by tightening the skin tissue, lifting it up and reducing wrinkles. Instant face lift powders and creams also frequently contain exfoliants, and a number of such products rely on the removal of dead skin layers to improve skin appearance. Some instant face lift results are due to increased moisturising, which smoothens the skin’s surface
The process of instant face lift usually takes less than an hour, and results often appear after the first application. An instant face lift (usually cream or powder applied as a masque tightening skin as it dries providing the instant face lift) allows individuals to treat themselves at home with almost no risk of side effects. They are generally meant to be used once or more a week, and such products mostly rely on repeat treatments to achieve optimal results.
Individuals interested in learning more about instant face lift products should consult our lead Doctor Dr. Manoj Khanna, a qualified plastic surgeon for additional information. With so many instant face lift products available in the market, careful comparison is necessary, and only a physician can recommend the instant face lift that will be most effective for each individual
There are a number of face lift cream products that contain an amino acid called acetyl hexapeptide- also known as Argireline- as their active ingredient. This ingredient is touted as a clinically safe and proven face lift cream constituent that can significantly reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines around the mouth, forehead, and eyes without surgery or injections.
This powerful non-toxic peptide compound is offered as an alternative to face lift cream products that contain alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) which can cause long term damage to the skin. AHAs work by peeling off the first layer of the skin to reveal the layer of skin beneath. In contrast, acetyl hexapeptide works by reducing the amount of nerve stimulation in the facial area in order to smooth and reduce the appearance of wrinkles. These face lift cream products are also said to extend the effects of complimentary procedures such as Anti-aging.
These face lift cream products are used once or twice a day for a few months and are applied all over the face much like a moisturiser is applied. Only a small amount of face lift cream is needed because most products are highly concentrated. Many face lift cream manufacturers claim that a thirty percent or greater reduction in wrinkles can be achieved in the first few months of treatment. Some experts claim that a face lift cream must have a ten percent solution of acetyl hexapeptide in order to be effective.
These face lift cream products may be a viable cost-effective alternative to other surgical and non-surgical cosmetic facial enhancement procedures though the cost varies by product.
A face lift cream may be a good option for patients who have minor wrinkling or fine lines in the face or for patients who have undergone other face lift procedures. In addition to acetyl hexapeptide face lift cream, there are a number of other products available to enhance the appearance of the skin, including but not limited to: glycol-ceramides, green tea extracts, hyaluronic acid, and a variety of others.
There are many kinds of vascular birthmarks. Port wine stains are usually found on the face or scalp; they are flat and faint early in life, but gradually become darker and thicker in adulthood. Hemangiomas, another kind of vascular birthmark, appear as raised bright red/purple lesions. Hemangiomas grow rapidly during infancy and usually regress spontaneously during childhood.
Pigmented birthmarks vary in colour, depending on the location of the pigment. In general, brown birthmarks contain pigment in the top layers of the skin, while blue or grey birthmarks contain pigment deeper in the skin.
Some pigmented birthmarks (i.e. cafe au lait macules) can be treated with lasers that target brown pigment, such as the Q-switched ruby laser, the alexandrite laser, or the Nd:YAG laser. The choice of laser depends upon the depth of the pigment. A consultation to determine the best treatment approach may be necessary.
