Potentially any skin is problem skin. Although you may not suffer from acne, may not smoke or go on sun beds, everybody is exposed to the sun's ageing rays from birth and as we grow older our skin ages more rapidly. Lasercare have helped countless people to improve the quality of their skin and as a company keep up to date with all the latest technology, making us ideally placed to answer any questions that you may have. You are welcome to visit your local clinic and receive a complimentary pre-assessment with a nurse.
At Lasercare we aim to provide an all round service for your skin, preventing as well as treating skin damage. We stock skin care preparations containing both L-ascorbic Acid and Glycolic Acid products which are not available over the counter.
L-ascorbic Acid
L-ascorbic Acid is the only form of Vitamin C that is biologically useful when applied directly to the skin. Without sufficient Vitamin C collagen production slows down, resulting in fine lines and wrinkles. Taking Vitamin C orally may help your general well being but takes a long time to reach your skin making it twenty times more effective to administer vitamin C topically. At Lasercare it is possible to buy a range of products containing L-ascorbic Acid. These products are clinically proven to improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and can slow the ageing process.
Glycolic Acid
Glycolic Acid is a form of fruit acid which maintains and cares for your skin by tackling any condition detrimental to the skin's well being. The skin care benefits of Glycolic Acid are well proven. Not only do they reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles but they also help clear problem blemishes and allow skin to heal. There is a wide range of products available at Lasercare and to supplement these it is also possible to have a course of Glycolic Acid Skin Peels.
Exposure to the sun is incredibly damaging to your skin and can be dangerous as it introduces the risk of skin cancer- something which we should all be aware of.
If you are worried about your skin, it is possible to have an Ultra Violet photo taken at Lasercare which will show you any damage unseen by the naked eye. This can then be analysed by a dermatologist who can advise you of any treatment needed.
Lasercare also provide a sunblock, which gives essential skin protection, and an Aloe Vera gel, a natural product which soothes and calms your skin. You can buy either of these products on-line or at any Lasercare clinic.
