Hi-Tech Beauty-Buster Fixers
Whether your problem is thinning hair or acne, there are a few hot, new products on that claim to take away everything from wrinkles to too much hair. The products use some of the same technologies that a dermatologist may have used on you -- lasers, LED lights, and infrared light -- and you can use them all in your own home.
But do they work?
"These products provide at-home versions of procedures typically performed in a doctor's office: light treatments, laser hair removal, or chemical peels," says Linda Wells, editor in chief of Allure magazine.
"In terms of at-home treatments, this is just the beginning."
Wells and some Allure staffers visited The Early Show Wednesday and reported on the effectiveness of products the staffers tried for several weeks.
Acne And Rosacea Getting You Down? Laser, Light And Cosmetic Treatments Give Patients A Much Needed Boost
It is estimated that approximately 50 million people in the United States alone are affected by acne vulgaris, and another 14 million Americans experience the redness, flushing and pronounced blood vessels associated with rosacea. While there are no cures for these persistent skin conditions, dermatologists are broadening their treatment options to include laser, light and cosmetic therapies that are proving effective in managing these conditions and improving patient satisfaction.
Speaking at the 66th Annual Meeting of the American Academy of Dermatology, dermatologist Jenny J. Kim, MD, PhD, FAAD, assistant professor of medicine and dermatology at the David Geffen School of Medicine, University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA), in Los Angeles, Calif., discussed the latest approaches for treating acne, acne scarring and rosacea with laser and light therapies by themselves, in combination with each other or with cosmetic treatments, such as fillers.
Silverton may sue doc over laser treatment
British news presenter Kate Silverton is threatening to sue the doctor who conducted the laser skin-rejuvenation procedure that temporarily disfigured her.
Silverton, 37, underwent the treatment to have acne scars removed and to improve her skin tone; however, her face ended up swollen and covered in painful sores and lumps, the Daily Telegraph reported.
She was also forced to take two weeks off from her job at the BBC, the report said.
Although Silverton is now back to work, she told her attorneys to begin proceedings against the Jan Stanek clinic in London.
"It's been awful. I went in to get some minor scarring on my cheeks treated. I was told it would be a routine procedure and I'd be back to work in days. The treatment, however, caused a massive skin reaction," Silverton told the Telegraph.
SLU researchers to look at laser treatment for acne scars
ST on Monday, January 14, 2008 ST. LOUIS (AP) -- Researchers at the Saint Louis University School of Medicine plan to test a special laser treatment that might improve acne scars on people with darker skin. The scars are difficult to remove. Physicians usually treat the scars by removing the surface of the skin with powerful lasers or chemical treatments. These treatments can cause discoloration for people with darker skin. Dermatologists at Saint Louis University plan a clinical trial to see if a gentler laser treatment might help. The technique would use lasers that bypass the surface of the skin and stimulate collagen growth underneath. .
