How is it done?All techniques – from more traditional chemical peels and facial sanding (dermabrasion) to the latest laser treatments – involve resurfacing the skin. In essence the surface layer of the skin (epithelium) is removed exposing the underlying dermis. This stimulates ingrowth of new collagen which tightens and smoothes the skin.
