Comparing the Methods of Laser Skin Resurfacing

We would all like to look younger and more vital, but the many demands of a busy, fast-paced lifestyle can often make it difficult to find the time and resources for cosmetic plastic surgery procedures.  Fortunately there is a wide array of less invasive facial rejuvenation procedures that can achieve impressive aesthetic results without the need for extended surgical recovery time.  One of the quickest and most effective ways to alleviate many of the signs of facial aging is laser skin resurfacing.  In 2013 alone, more than half a million people underwent various laser skin resurfacing procedures, an increase of nearly 200% since 2000.  However, as laser skin resurfacing technology has evolved, two distinctly different approaches have developed, the ablative and the non-ablative.  Understanding the differences between these two treatment modes can help you determine which is right for you.
