People who wish to reduce the effects of aging and sun exposure which is visible on their face and neck are ideal candidates for non-invasive laser rejuvenation treatment.
Laser rejuvenation reduces redness on the face, the appearance of open pores, skin roughness and fine wrinkles, and also firms the skin and lightens freckles.
