Laser Resurfacing:
Fractional laser treatments can target specific areas of sun damage, stimulating collagen production and helping to improve texture, tone, and fine lines.
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL):
IPL therapy targets areas of hyperpigmentation and redness, reducing the appearance of sunspots and uneven skin tone.
