Pre and Post-Op Laser Home Care Treatment and Protocol
Laser resurfacing is a method by which the skin is precisely removed, layer by layer, using a high energy laser. This procedure cleanly vaporizes tissue and minimizes the risk of scarring or pigment changes. Currently, lasers are considered a valuable tool for treating wrinkles, acne scars, surgical or traumatic scars, eyelid surgeries, endoscopic surgeries, surgical incisions, and hair transplantations.
Patient Home Care
A critical factor in overall outcome and patient satisfaction is the emphasis placed on skin conditioning prior to the procedure along with appropriate aftercare. The key goals that should be addressed are:
- Pre-operative and Post-operative topical agents that lessen the possibility of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
- Pre-operative skin conditioning and resurfacing topical agents that increase skin receptivity and responsiveness by reducing the stratum corneum barrier and speeding up the skin’s metabolism. This accelerated exfoliation causes the epidermis to produce cells at a much more rapid rate and stimulates new collagen formation in the dermis.
- Post-operative topical preparations that significantly enhance healing, decrease inflammation, and generally assist in making the recovery period less eventful. Surveys also reveal that patients are more likely to be compliant when they are able to participate in the healing process in a meaningful way.
- Pre and post-operative protection from the harmful effects of sun exposure.
The pre and post-op laser home care product kit is an advanced system of specialized preparations that successfully address these all-important considerations. Each product consists of the latest medically based skin care technology that enables the patient to fully benefit from a supervised, systemized approach that will significantly aid in achieving and maintaining the desired improvements.
