Building Collagen with LaserToning

LaserToning treatments are perfect if you’re looking for a safe, quick procedure to rejuvenate and revitalize your skin.   It’s one of the latest and most exciting cosmetic procedures available. 

LaserToning is a procedure of choice among top celebrities, as well as ‘the working population’ who can’t afford a great deal of time away from work to recover from intense procedures, or who want a better solution to sun-damaged, aging or acne-scarred skin.

How does LaserToning work?
Collagen provides the support network to our skin.  As we age, the collagen breaks down, causing wrinkles and lines.  The YAG-Laser works by stimulating collagen production.  The more collagen you have, the better your skin looks!

Which areas can I treat with LaserToning?
The laser can be used to rejuvenate many body areas including the face, hands, neck and chest.

What does LaserToning feel like?
LaserToning Treatments are not painful.  Many describe the sensation as a slight warm tingling.  Anesthesia is unnecessary for this treatment.

Will I have downtime after my treatment?
The beauty of LaserToning is that there is no downtime after your appointment.  There is no recovery time, as the laser doesn’t remove any skin or cause visible effects beyond:

  • Mild to moderate redness, which usually fades within an hour after treatment

There’s no specific after-care routine that you’ll need to follow, with the exception of applying a 30SPF to the treated skin.

How many visits will I need before I see an improvement in my skin?
Collagen production with LaserToning is a gradual process.  Usually individuals need 4-6 treatments.  Many choose to return for touch-up treatments after the initial treatment session ends.

How do I get started?
Call our Frederick, Maryland office to schedule an appointment with our Patient Coordinator, Brittany, or our Laser and Cosmetic Nurse, Nurse Young.   They’ll review your specific needs and goals.   In many cases, you can start treatment the same day as your consult.  301-698-2424.
