Some of the properties of the skin are by ageing or other external or intrinsic influences like sun exposure, smoking or undesirable pollutive factors lost. These are contributing to the signs of fine-wrinkled leathery skin and these wrinkles can never be eliminated by a face-lift.

Wrinkles, pigmentation, freckles, acne prone skin or post acne scarring are conditions suitable for skin-resurfacing treatment, either chemically or mechanically.
