Wrinkles are simply folds or creases that result from repetitive movements of the body, like facial expressions. Environmental and behavioral factors like sun damage and smoking can exacerbate and deepen wrinkles. The appearance of wrinkles and fine lines can be diminished with the use of ablative lasers like the Sciton® Profractional™ or the Sciton® MicroLaserPeel™. These lasers resurface your skin by removing skins cells in a targeted manner. This triggers the production of new collagen which improves the texture, firmness and appearance of your skin. The Mentor Peel™, developed and trademarked by Dr. Vanek, is a procedure that combines the Profractional™ and MicroLaserPeel™ treatments to provide exceptional resurfacing outcomes.
