Rejuvenation and Resurfacing:
Nonablative Laser Resurfacing

Nonablative resurfacing is an effective, well proven skin-plumping treatment. Wendy’s office is equipped with highest quality, state-of-the-art, superbly maintained laser devices.

For this procedure, Wendy uses a focused laser beam to disturb the collagen matrix in the deep layers of your skin. In response, your body produces new, fresh collagen that plumps up your skin, smoothing out fine lines and restoring elasticity. The treatment is fast and comfortable: It feels as though Wendy is sprinkling fairy dust over your skin! And, indeed, the results can seem magical. You leave the office with no sign of your treatment except a faint rosy glow. Changes occur gradually over the coming months, so people notice only that you are looking refreshed and lovely.

Most patients choose a month-long series of eight or ten treatments. For convenience, many schedule other services during this period, or complement the benefits of laser treatment with Gentle Waves® sessions.

Instead of resigning yourself to the unsightly effects of time and sun exposure, enlist Wendy to counteract them. Call her office (408-866-4884) to schedule your consultation and treatment.

Note that this treatment should not be confused with ablative resurfacing. To “ablate” means to eliminate, excise, or remove. In ablative resurfacing, a doctor uses a laser or other means to remove a number of upper layers from the skin. Ablative resurfacing can be highly effective in removing imperfections and rejuvenating the skin. It is an invasive procedure that requires a recovery period during which the skin may be at first unsightly and later ultrasensitive. In contrast, the laser procedures that Wendy offers are completely noninvasive.
