(763) 545-0443Laser Skin Resurfacing
Technology That Gets to the Real You
Over the past two decades, laser resurfacing has become the most precise and effective technology available for treatment of facial lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and other surface skin damage. Dermabrasion and chemical peeling can also treat fine lines, wrinkles, scars, and pigmentation irregularities, but have some limitations that make them appropriate only in select circumstances.
Facial laser skin resurfacing options are found at our skin and body care clinic MAASC. Some medi-spas or physician offices, where surgical procedures are limited or unavailable (Dermatology or Family Practice offices, for example), offer or encourage certain procedures or treatments designed to utilize the laser or technology they own or “just purchased.” This “I’ve got a new hammer, so everything must be a nail” approach tends to give you less-ideal results than may have been possible with the best surgery, skin peel, or laser procedure optimized for your specific needs. At Minneapolis Anti-Aging and Skin Clinic, formerly Carillon Clinic, we own multiple lasers and IPL (BBL) machines, so we can use what’s best, not “what we have” or the promotional procedure du jour! Your individualized treatment will focus on removing unwanted elements from your skin and emphasizing what you like, ensuring you leave our office with renewed confidence and often major improvement in your skin that cannot be obtained elsewhere.

Lasers in Minneapolis
Using several of the best and proven laser techniques and equipment, the plastic surgeons at Minneapolis Plastic Surgery, LTD. and specialists at MAASC are able to reduce or remove wrinkles, scars, birthmarks, age spots, freckles, superficial blood vessels, unwanted hair, and sun damage, in addition to the other types of aesthetic plastic surgery they routinely perform.
Laser hair removal and other skin and body care services are available at our anti-aging and skin care clinic, Minneapolis Anti-Aging & Skin Clinic (MAASC), formerly Carillon Clinic, Ltd., and new laser techniques are being evaluated and perfected on an ongoing basis at our surgical facility. Our plastic surgeons provide dermabrasion, chemical peels, spider vein sclerotherapy, and facial vein removal at our plastic surgery practice; other less invasive skin treatments, such as microdermabrasion, microlaser peels, and chemical peels, are available at MAASC.
Laser technology is utilized when it provides a distinct advantage over “standard” or more traditional treatment choices, or when it is the best choice for a particular need. Unfortunately, some clinics or physicians promote “laser this” or “laser that” as “more advanced,” the “latest and greatest,” “less scarring,” or simply as a marketing tool to imply being up-to-date or technologically superior! Options for skin-surface wrinkle removal via laser and other modalities can be found at our skin and body care clinic MAASC, across the hall from MPS in Golden Valley.
