  • Beautiful Skin is a Pulse Away

    A new laser is sweeping the market and making old skin new in the process, the new SmartSkin laser by Cynosure. SmartSkin CO2 has shown impressive results for wrinkle treatment, age spots, redness and overall rejuvenation. Patients are also singing its praises. "I think my skin looks great," says Diane S. from Philadelphia. Carol P. from Bryn Mawr says "People are telling me my skin looks great and asking me what I did."

    Physician Praise

    Many physicians are also giving it positive reviews. "The SmartSkin has become a central part of my practice." Says Dr. Eric Bernstien, Clinical Associate Professor of Dermatology at the University of Pennsylvania. He also added that "With no downtime and no need to use even topical numbing cream, the fact that patient satisfaction is so high was a huge bonus." "The SmartSkin CO2 gives you the versatility to perform light to aggressive treatment with a single laser." Dr. Brian Biesman of the Nashville Centre for Laser and Facial Surgery said "When used properly, the SmartSkin CO2 LaserSkinRenewal's unique technology is effective and safe for improving the texture and appearance of photoaged skin."

    Short But Effective Treatment

    According to Cynosure, the SmartSkin CO2 laser treatment takes approximately 20 minutes, and outstanding results may be achieved in as little as 1 treatment. The SmartSkin CO2 device utilizes a carbon dioxide laser which has been a cornerstone of laser resurfacing for decades, but uses a novel micro ablative technique which is a revolutionary method for laser rejuvenation of the face. By only treating minute segments of the facial area at a time, the SmartSkin CO2 is able to minimize downtime and healing while still rejuvenating the whole area of the skin including the collagen beneath the skin.

    What SmartSkin Treats

    Cynosure has stated that SmartSkin lasers have shown impressive results for advanced signs of aging such as:
    • Deep Lines and Wrinkles
    • Age & Brown Spots
    • Keratoses
    • Skin Tone & Texture
    • Collagen Rejuvenation

    All of these conditions have been treated using the SmartSkin CO2 with minimal downtime. Most patients see significant improvement in as little as 1 treatment. Short term side effects may include redness, swelling and crusting for few days.

    The Technology

    Fractional laser devices have been all the rage this year among cosmetic laser surgeons, offering to treat difficult conditions which had not responded well to other non-ablative methods. Advanced signes of aging such as deep wrinkles around the mouth and the eyes have shown promising results with fractional devices. What sets the SmartSkin apart is its unique setting flexibility that allows to customize each treatment to the patient's expectations in terms of downtime and aesthetic outcomes. In addition, the SmartSkin CO2 is uniquely configured to target the right depth of ablation while also stimulating collagen to regenerate and remodel and coagulating blood. As a result, patient will quickly recover from their treatment and will be able to "WOW" their friends and family with a "years younger" look.
