Procedures - NLite Treatment

Before

After

The new NLite wrinkle reduction laser treatment is an outpatient procedure, which requires no anesthesia and has no real downtime. This laser was developed in Great Britain and was released in the United States in October 2000 with FDA clearance. The laser uses yellow light to penetrate the skin and excite the small blood vessels in the upper dermis without damaging the superficial skin. This excitation causes a proliferative response of the fibroblasts stimulating the new deposition of collagen. The new collagen fills the wrinkle from the inside. Studies from Europe have shown excellent change in skin characteristics and wrinkle depth. The side effects noted are minimal redness, which resolves within 24 hours and mild purpura. The maximum effect is noted between one and three months after the procedure.
