At their peak, Wyoming summers can reach heights of 80 and sometimes even 90 degrees! These temperatures may seem like a welcome relief from the winter cold at first, but tend to quickly become uncomfortable. Extensive sun exposure can add years to our complexions. The biggest signs of an aging face / neck include sun damage spots, wrinkles, and scars. While many non-surgical treatments exist for these issues, few are as effective as the Cynosure ICON laser system. The ICON is a specialized laser that tackles several issues at once. From wrinkles to sun damage spots, this tool tackles them all while minimizing pain and downtime.

What Contributes to Aging?
As we age, our skin begins producing less collagen and elastin. These essential proteins are responsible for maintaining our facial volume and the ability of our skin to snap back from stretching. As these proteins decline, we start to notice more wrinkles and fine lines. In addition, common contributors to an aged complexion include sun damage spots, age spots, and scars. When it comes to aging face treatments, Dr. Gerard’s all-in-one ICON laser tackles all of these issues at once. By doing so, this unique laser delivers excellent skin rejuvenation results.
Treating an Aging Face with ICON
The ICON laser system offers aging face treatment through the use of two laser wavelengths. This dual-action allows the device to treat sun damage and wrinkles simultaneously. Treatment with the ICON doesn’t require any prior injections and results in little to no downtime. Each session with Dr. Gerard begins with a thorough assessment of your skin care needs. After examining your trouble areas, the doc will determine whether the ICON system is right for you.
Aging Face Treatment with ICON Results
Following your aging face treatment, you may notice some initial swelling, redness, or skin darkening. These side effects will only last for a short while. Once your skin is healed, you will see a dramatic improvement in the look of your face. Your skin will look radiant, feel tighter, and your complexion will be smoother. For best results, 3-4 treatments with the ICON are usually recommended. Be sure to discuss your specific needs with Dr. Gerard to help us determine your best treatment course.
