Traditional ablative, which literally means vaporization at a very high temperature, are very effective at destroying unwanted tissue but may have significant side-effects and require a lengthy healing period. As a sub specialist in dermatologic surgery, Dr. Shelton has a thorough understanding of the causes of damaged skin that can be improved by laser resurfacing. Prior to resurfacing, the physician will access skin's conditions as well as the prior history of facial procedures and Acne Treatment.
