Mirror, mirror on the wall, who’s the fairest of them all? For millennia, women (and men) have been pondering that very question. It’s led to the quest for the healthiest, most radiant and most youthful skin possible.

Laser treatments are the map you need to that elusive pot of gold at the end of the beautiful rainbow.

Laser treatments can help your skin in all sorts of different ways, and help get you the complexion and smoothness you’ve always dreamed of. Want to know what we mean?

Here are 8 things lasers can do for your skin.

1. Hair Removal

Laser for hair removal is one of the most popular laser treatments out there.

The benefits of this hair removal treatment are endless. The pain involved is minimal and the effects are long-term. The lack of regrowth means fewer ingrown hairs, too. Ingrown hairs can cause pain and scarring, so eliminating them is a great thing.

Also, when you don’t have to shave your legs in the morning, you can save quite a bit of time every morning!

Using an accurate, concentrated laser, your technician will zap each individual hair follicle, leaving you with skin that’s silky smooth and hair-free.

2. Tattoo Removal

Remember when your Mom told you that you should wait until you were older before getting a tattoo, and you didn’t listen? You might feel like you’ll have to live with the regret of that youthful mistake forever.

Well, now older you gets a second chance. Laser treatments for tattoo removal are highly sought-after for those whose ink was a mistake.

While each individual’s results vary, the procedure can be extremely effective in fading or eliminating that tat that makes you blush.

3. Remove Birthmarks

For some of us, the visible marks on our skin weren’t something we chose, but something we were born with.

Almost all of us have birthmarks. For some, though, birthmarks are more than a small, hidden blemish.

Similar to tattoo-removal, lasers work to break up the pigmentation beneath the skin and move it out of the area.

Prominent birthmarks can cause embarrassment, anxiety and a lack of confidence. But now, lasers are being used to treat birthmarks, and give you the skin you’ve always wanted.

4. Better Bloodflow

Cold feet and hands, a tingling sensation in your limbs and pain or numbness could all be signs of poor circulation. This could be caused by many different things including vascular issues, high cholesterol, diabetes or heart disease.

But did you know that lasers can improve your circulation?

While chilled extremities might not seem like that big a problem, for those with serious health concerns, a lack of circulation could lead to the loss of a limb, or worse.

Laser treatments help to break up the blockages in veins so that blood can more easily flow, and your body can get the cells it needs to keep you in one piece.

5. Even Out Skintone

There are many different reasons that, over the years, our skin can take a hammering. Too many vacations in the sun, perhaps. Or maybe cigarette smoke has messed with your complexion.

Teenage spots and zits could also have left their mark if you struggled to leave them alone.

Happily, there is an answer. Laser treatments can be used to renew and rejuvenate your skin, removing the old, upper layer to reveal the fresh, unmarked skin beneath. Now, you can turn back the clock and give yourself skin that’ll make you look years younger.

6. Banish Unsightly Thread Veins

Spider or thread veins can appear anywhere, but when they’re on the face or legs, they can be especially noticeable. Thread veins tend to spread and can affect your confidence on the beach, or in the office.

And if your thread veins are the result of rosacea, they could have a strong effect on your confidence.

With the advent of new laser treatments, though, you can now say goodbye to these unwelcome arrivals. The laser successfully breaks up the vein under the skin, and does it painlessly, too, leaving you with clear skin you’ll be proud of.

7. Smooth Away the Wrinkles

If you have fine lines or wrinkles, they probably bring back to you the undeniable fact: your skin is aging, and probably faster than you’d like.

While there have been plenty of treatments available over the years for smoother, younger skin, many of these treatments are incredibly invasive, dangerous, or include the use of chemicals, which some shy away from.

Laser skin resurfacing targets surface skin cells and can erase both fine and deeper wrinkles. The treatment does not involve going under the knife, or the injection of chemicals.

These lasers can also help with enlarged oil glands on the face, warts, and other issues.

8. Remove Acne Scars

Childhood, teenage or adult acne can leave some with extensive scarring. The effects of acne scarring are more than just skin deep, with many feeling a deep emotional response to their marked skin.

Any facial scarring can make us feel incredibly sensitive, and have a huge effect on the way we feel. Scars can also affect the way we dress or even our relationships.

With the availability of laser treatments for scar removal, however, those feelings and consequences can become a thing of the past. The laser will target the damaged tissue and remove it in thin layers, smoothing out the skin and changing its appearance.

When you opt for laser treatment on the results of your acne, your scars will either fade, or disappear, for beautiful glowing skin, and the confidence you deserve.
