The days leading up to the holidays are for skin prepping and beauty treatments that can accentuate your holiday glow. The perfect skin treatment can take a few days to offer full results, but once the holidays come through, you can be able to enjoy the benefits. The CUTERA® laser is one of these treatments, as it can help reduce your skin imperfections and even out your skin tone. 

The CUTERA® laser can help you with different skin concerns, depending on the type of laser that you decide on. Dr. Ariel Ostad offers a customized treatment so that you can enjoy beautifully smooth skin this holiday season. Let’s find out how the CUTERA® laser can help you.

What Is CUTERA® Laser?

CUTERA® is a minimally invasive laser treatment that uses pulses of light energy to heat blood vessel walls underneath your skin. This process can help shrink the veins and destroy them, reducing excessive redness caused by prominent or broken vessels. 

Once the vessels are destroyed, the body will naturally remove its remnants. Side effects are minimal, and while you may notice mild to moderate swelling within the first few days, this should not affect your daily routine. The treatment is very efficient at diffusing redness and brown spots. 

Types of CUTERA® Laser

Depending on the chosen frequency and your skin condition, you can opt for different kinds of CUTERA® lasers. Dr. Ostad offers the following treatment options: 

• CUTERA® Excel V Laser

The CUTERA® Excel V laser is recommended for patients who have mild rosacea and want to stop it from progressing. This treatment works by targeting the blood vessels responsible for the flushing and redness, closing them off. This laser offers a more even skin tone, reducing the chance of your skin reacting to certain triggers.

• CUTERA® Genesis Laser

For patients wanting to look more youthful on their holiday cards, the CUTERA® Genesis laser may be the best option. This laser treatment activates your body’s collagen production, reducing different signs associated with aging. This may include redness and rosacea, along with pigmentation marks. The laser also has the ability to kill bacteria and reduce the size of oil glands, diminishing acne breakouts. 

Why Get CUTERA® Before the Holidays?

Getting CUTERA® laser before the holidays comes with the following benefits: 

• Visible Vein Reduction

Your veins can become more visible as you advance in age. The CUTERA® laser can help reduce the size of those veins, shrinking them until they are sealed off. Your body will then start delivering blood through the other blood vessels. 

• Rosacea Reduction

Rosacea is a condition that can affect both women and men, regardless of their age. The condition can be triggered by various factors, including spicy foods, alcohol, or physical exertion, which can send blood through the vessels near the surface of your skin. CUTERA® can seal off those blood vessels so that you may enjoy your holiday activities in peace without having flare ups.

• Wrinkle Reduction

The heat provided by the CUTERA® laser stimulates collagen production, which can help you treat aging signs like wrinkles and fine lines. Increased collagen production can also tighten mild to moderately sagging skin, giving you a more youthful, sculpted look. 

• Acne Reduction

CUTERA® laser can target your sebaceous glands, preventing them from overproducing oil and blocking your pores. The heat of the laser may also destroy the bacteria trapped in the pores, reducing the chances of a breakout. Lastly, aside from wrinkle reduction, the collagen production started by CUTERA® can reduce the intensity of your acne scars.
