What Are Laser Treatments?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Laser treatments utilise specific light energy to treat certain skin conditions. The technique directs short, concentrated beams of light into the skin, which target certain parts of the skin depending on the wavelength being used. This may stimulate collagen activity, influence sebum production, and potentially improve skin texture, depending on individual response.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Laser Treatments for Pore Reduction<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

One common skin problem is large pores. As people grow older, their skin starts to lose its elasticity, which causes it to sag and stretch, making its pores appear larger. Overproduction of oil can clog pores with sebum, resulting in the formation of blackheads, which can increase pore sizes. Additionally, years of sun exposure can cause the tissue beneath the skin to shrink and pull at the edge of the pores, making them sag and appear larger than normal.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Daily cleansing and exfoliation may help to deter the formation of enlarged pores<\/a>. However, such facial care methods are usually not enough to put them at bay. Some individuals may consider laser treatments as one option to address pore appearance.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are two main types of laser treatments: ablative laser and non-ablative laser.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ablative laser treatments like CO2 lasers are used to treat certain skin lesions such as moles, skin tags, sebaceous hyperplasia, and milia, following medical evaluation.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the other hand, Non-ablative treatments such as AEON Total Clarity are used to address concerns like pore appearance and pigmentation, based on individual suitability. This<\/span> enlarged pore treatment<\/a> uses laser energy in short pulses, which may stimulate collagen activity and influence oil production, which can affect how pores appear. As a non-ablative procedure, downtime is generally limited, although individual experiences may vary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Who is Suitable For Laser Treatments?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Besides having enlarged pores and shallow scars from acne, patients with pigmentations<\/a> around their eyes, nose, and forehead<\/span> may be suitable for laser treatments following medical assessment. During a consultation, our aesthetic doctor will assess the condition of your skin and discuss your needs in order to come up with a suitable laser treatment plan for you, be it to treat acne scars or wrinkle reduction treatment<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n

What to Expect During and After The Laser Procedure<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Before the laser treatment, the therapist will apply a thin layer of lotion onto your skin that will help with laser energy absorption. Your eyes will then be protected with a pair of metal goggles. During the treatment, the doctor will gently apply the laser energy onto your skin without making physical contact. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the laser energy is absorbed into the skin and pores, heat is generated which may feel warm or slightly hot. Into the session, you will hear a snapping sound and feel a slight tingling or warm sensation as the lotion \u201cevaporates\u201d from your skin. These sensations are part of how the treatment delivers energy into the skin, which may influence collagen activity and oil production.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most patients are able to resume daily activities shortly after the procedure, depending on individual response. However, it is advised to avoid UV radiation from sun exposure to avoid the development of darker pigmentations in the treatment areas.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Multiple sessions may be recommended depending on skin condition and treatment goals. The number of sessions varies between individuals. With laser treatments, your skin will gradually appear brighter and smoother, with reduction of large pores.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Potential Side-Effects<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Laser treatments are medical procedures and should be performed by a qualified doctor. However, like any treatment, there are always risks involved. In the case of laser treatments, patients may experience redness or a slight itching sensation in the treated pore areas.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

There may also be temporary skin hyperpigmentation or permanent darkening of the skin, especially for dark-skinned patients who wish to undergo the procedure. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
