Laser Skin Resurfacing

As a consequence of environmental changes and increased outdoor leisure time, we are seeing a significant increase in prematurely aged and sun damaged skin.  Laser skin resurfacing not only improves the texture and tone of the skin, but it actually promotes production of new collagen under the skin, creating a healthier more youthful appearance. The severe scarring from acne can be improved with laser resurfacing too. Similarly, for those patients with the right skin type, a deep chemical phenol peel can achieve a dramatic reduction of wrinkles and restore your skin to a youthful and smoother condition.

Dr. Stagnone has extensive experience with both chemical peels and laser resurfacing. The Plastic Surgery Center of Dallas uses a CO2 Laser in selected patients for the treatment of wrinkles and acne scars. The laser or sometimes a deep chemical peel can be used to treat limited areas such as lines around the mouth or eyes. However, the majority of patients choose to treat their whole face for the most dramatic improvements.
