Light-based therapy is hot<br />
property, but which treatment<br />
works best for what?<br />
AimÉe Surtenich reports.<br />
Today’s lasers <strong>and</strong> light-based systems can<br />
significantly diminish <strong>and</strong> even reverse many<br />
of the tell-tale signs of ageing, from early<br />
lines, uneven pigmentation <strong>and</strong> broken capillaries<br />
to deep wrinkles <strong>and</strong> severe sun damage.<br />
They can reach much deeper levels <strong>and</strong><br />
affect far more significant changes than would<br />
be possible with most other common modalities<br />
of treatment, <strong>and</strong> without needing to invest<br />
significant money.<br />
Another bonus is that a light-based procedure<br />
procedure can often be performed in less than an<br />
hour <strong>and</strong> typically required little or no downtime.<br />
One of the most influential advances in<br />
aesthetic laser technology is fractional laser<br />
resurfacing (ablative <strong>and</strong> non-ablative), which can<br />
achieve skin rejuvenation results that approximate<br />
conventional ablative laser but with less aggressive<br />
treatment protocols <strong>and</strong>, so, fewer potential<br />
side effects.<br />
Here we list the most popular light therapies,<br />
from most heavy duty to least aggressive. csbm<br />
