Uses
-
Mosaic laser technology is used to treat skin discoloration and abnormal texture caused by scarring (specifically, acne scarring), aging and sun damage. It is also used to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Features
-
This type of laser technology uses the patented Controlled Chaos Technology (CCT), according to azooptics.com. This technology delivers multiple microscopic lasers to the skin simultaneously, in a "spray paint" fashion, rather than just one laser at a time.
-
How It Works
-
Laser beams penetrate the skin's surface to destroy abnormal cells, and stimulate a healing process that involves new growth of collagen and elastin tissue in the skin (two proteins responsible for the skin's architecture and appearance).
Benefits
-
According to Diane Matthews Clinic in Essex, England, the improvements are noticeable after one session. Mosaic treatment aims to deliver a brighter, more radiant skin tone; smoother texture; less visible pores; improved elasticity; and reduced wrinkles.
Side Effects
-
The Diane Matthews Clinic explains that the patient will experience redness and a mild sunburn feeling a few hours after treatment. Swelling, flaking and redness can last a few days, and a "bronze" appearance in the skin subsides within a week.
Results
-
While the Diane Matthews Clinic says results are seen after one treatment, the clinic recommends three to five treatments every two to six weeks for optimum results. Renewed skin requires extreme caution in sun exposure.
