Laser Treatments at estetica: Achieve Flawless, Radiant Skin

Laser treatments have revolutionised the aesthetic industry, offering remarkable solutions for clearer, smoother, and more radiant skin without the downtime associated with invasive procedures. At estetica, our Chertsey and Windsor clinics provide state-of-the-art laser therapies using cutting-edge technology to address various skin concerns with precision and effectiveness. Our expert practitioners are dedicated to helping you achieve your skincare goals with treatments tailored to your unique needs.

The Science of Laser Technology

Understanding how laser technology works helps our clients appreciate why these treatments are so effective at transforming skin quality and appearance. Laser treatments utilize focused light energy delivered at specific wavelengths that target different skin concerns with remarkable precision.

When applied to the skin, this light energy converts to heat energy, which can selectively target unwanted pigmentation, stimulate collagen production, or address other skin issues without damaging surrounding tissue. The versatility of laser technology allows us to customise treatments for a wide range of concerns, including:

• Hyperpigmentation and sun damage

• Fine lines and wrinkles

• Acne scarring and textural irregularities

• Vascular lesions such as spider veins and rosacea

• Unwanted hair

• Enlarged pores and uneven skin tone

What makes laser treatments particularly effective is their ability to work beneath the skin's surface, triggering the body's natural healing processes to rebuild healthier, more youthful-looking skin over time. This dual approach of immediate surface improvement combined with deeper structural changes provides both immediate and progressive results.

Types of Laser Treatments at estetica

At our Chertsey and Windsor clinics, we offer a comprehensive range of laser treatments, each designed to address specific skin concerns while ensuring safety and comfort. Our medical professionals carefully select the most appropriate technology for each client's unique skin type and condition.

Fractional Laser Treatments

Our fractional laser technology creates thousands of microscopic treatment zones in the skin, stimulating the body's natural healing process to replace damaged cells with healthy new ones. This approach is particularly effective for:

• Reducing fine lines and wrinkles

• Improving skin texture and tone

• Minimising acne scars and surgical scars

• Treating sun damage and age spots

The "fractional" approach treats only a fraction of the skin at a time, allowing for faster healing and reduced downtime compared to traditional ablative lasers.

Vascular Laser Treatments

These specialised lasers target hemoglobin in the blood, making them ideal for addressing vascular concerns such as:

• Facial spider veins

• Rosacea

• Cherry angiomas

• Port wine stains

The laser energy is absorbed by the blood vessels, causing them to collapse and eventually fade from view while leaving surrounding tissue undamaged.

Pigmentation Laser Treatments

Our pigmentation-targeting lasers specifically address unwanted discoloration on the skin by breaking down excess melanin, effectively treating:

• Age spots and sun spots

• Melasma

• Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation

• Freckles

These treatments create a more even, radiant complexion by eliminating or reducing areas of darker pigmentation.

Skin Rejuvenation Lasers

Our comprehensive skin rejuvenation laser treatments address multiple concerns simultaneously, offering overall improvement in skin quality through:

• Collagen stimulation

• Enhanced skin elasticity

• Reduced pore size

• Improvement in overall skin tone and texture

All of our laser treatments are performed with the highest safety standards by our experienced medical practitioners. Before any treatment, we conduct a thorough assessment of your skin to ensure the selected laser therapy is appropriate for your skin type and concerns.

What Does a Laser Treatment Session Look Like?

Understanding the treatment process helps our clients feel more comfortable and confident when visiting our Chertsey and Windsor clinics. A typical laser treatment session at estetica follows these steps:

Pre-Treatment Consultation

Every laser journey begins with a comprehensive consultation, during which our practitioners will:

• Assess your skin condition and concerns

• Review your medical history to ensure treatment suitability

• Explain the recommended laser procedure in detail

• Set realistic expectations for results

• Answer any questions you may have

Treatment Day Preparation

On the day of your appointment, we'll prepare your skin by:

• Thoroughly cleansing the treatment area

• Applying topical anaesthetic if needed for comfort

• Taking clinical photographs to track your progress

• Configuring the laser settings specifically for your skin

The Laser Procedure

During the actual treatment:

• Protective eyewear will be provided for both you and our practitioner

• The laser handpiece will be systematically passed over the treatment area

• You may feel a sensation similar to a rubber band snap or mild warming, depending on the laser type

• Most sessions last between 15-45 minutes, depending on the treatment area and type of laser

Immediate Post-Treatment Care

Immediately after your treatment, we'll:

• Apply soothing products to calm the skin

• Provide immediate aftercare instructions

• Schedule your follow-up appointment if a series is recommended

Most of our laser treatments involve minimal downtime, with many clients returning to their normal activities immediately or within 24-48 hours. Some redness, mild swelling, or a sensation similar to a slight sunburn is normal and typically subsides quickly.

Maximising Your Laser Results

The success of laser treatments depends not only on the procedure itself but also on proper aftercare and maintenance. At estetica, we provide comprehensive guidance to ensure optimal and long-lasting results from your treatments.

Essential Post-Treatment Care

To support your skin's healing process and enhance results, we recommend:

• Diligent sun protection with a broad-spectrum SPF 50+ sunscreen, as treated skin is more sensitive to UV damage

• Keeping the skin well hydrated with recommended moisturisers

• Avoiding harsh skincare products, including retinoids and acids, for the time period specified by your practitioner

• Staying well-hydrated by drinking plenty of water to support skin regeneration

• Avoiding excessive heat (saunas, hot yoga, intense exercise) for 24-48 hours after treatment

Long-Term Maintenance

For sustained improvement, consider:

• Following the complete series of treatments recommended by your practitioner, as results are cumulative

• Adopting a medical-grade skincare routine that complements your laser treatments

• Scheduling maintenance treatments as advised, typically every 6-12 months

• Continuing to protect your skin from sun damage, which can undo the benefits of laser therapy

Our team at both the Chertsey and Windsor clinics will create a personalised aftercare plan tailored to your specific treatment and skin type, ensuring you achieve the best possible results from your laser treatments.
