Away With Brown Spots & Broken Blood Vessels

How you look speaks volumes. Why not have a voice in what it says? Today, procedures such as Fraxel™ and Intense Pulsed Light are empowering people with sun related brown spots and broken blood vessels to do just that. And, the Key Laser Institute for Aesthetic Medicine® can help.

Fun In the Sun. Spots on the Face

By taking part in outdoor activities, you've taken care of your spirit. But, while enjoying an active lifestyle, it's easy to forget just how important it is to take care of your skin, such as wearing a sunscreen of at least SPF 30 and avoiding the midday sun. Even when you take precautions to protect yourself from the harmful effects of ultraviolet (UV) light, eventually most everyone - men and women alike - will have to contend with photodamaged skin. In fact, over 90% of the signs of premature aging are sunlight related. We see it in men and women as young as 20, although photoaging is most apparent in those approaching middle age. The signs of sun damaged skin include a thinning of the epidermis, fine lines and wrinkles, uneven pigmentation, roughness, broken blood vessels and brown spots.

Serving the Pacific Northwest, the Key Laser Institute for Aesthetic Medicine in Portland, Oregon is on the forefront on the West Coast in the use of noninvasive lasers, light and energy to reverse the signs of aging and to restore the health, appearance and overall well being of your skin.

Do Away With Brown Spots & Broken Blood Vessels

Although associated with aging, lentigines (brown spots) are actually your body's attempt to protect itself from overexposure to the sun's ultraviolet rays by overproducing melanin. Also known as liver spots and sun spots, this form of hyperpigmentation can persist on exposed areas of skin such as on the face, neck, shoulders, chest and arms and appear in a variety of colors ranging from dark yellow or brown to black.

Broken blood vessels aren't broken at all, but rather dilated. The result of genetics, extreme heat, spicy foods, strenuous exercise, excessive alcohol consumption, anxiety or overexposure to the sun's UV rays, enlarged capillaries show themselves on the face, neck and upper chest.

The treatment of undesirable brown spots and broken blood vessels is easily accomplished at the Key Laser Institute with our exclusive Layered Light™ program. By layering non-surgical laser treatments like Fraxel™ (approved by the FDA for the treatment of age spots) with procedures such as Intense Pulsed Light, the growth of new collagen is not only stimulated, but imperfections associated with sun aging are also eliminated. The result is smoother, healthier, more youthful looking skin free of age spots and broken vessels. And, when followed by a Photodynamic Therapy(PDT) such as Gentle Waves™, skin rejuvenation is achieved even faster. The Key Laser Institute was one of the first cosmetic medical centers to release findings on the treatment enhancing qualities of PDT. You don't have to change the way you live to love the way you look.
