Leading international facial laser and plastic surgeon Dr Ayham Al-Ayoubi has been raving about Cynosure’s new laser-the Performa.
Dr Ayham Al-Ayoubi, who is medical director of the London Medical and Aesthetic Clinic on Harley Street, has described the system as the ‘next generation in anti-ageing skin treatments’. He says, “The Cynosure- Performa is a newer, much more advanced fractional CO2 laser, which I introduced in to the UK in December 2010. I recommended it to my patients for treating skin conditions such as photo-aged skin, fine lines and wrinkles, severe acne scarring and surface lesions. In some cases it can even be used to treat burns patients at the later stages. Fractional technology allows for skin to treated with small micro-ablative areas. Areas for untouched tissue allows for much quicker healing times and decreased risk profile, with patients experiencing only a couple of days of slight redness and swelling.
“Whilst previous CO2 lasers were affective when they were first launched many years ago, they caused unbelievable redness of skin and thermal damage. The advantage was significantly tighter skin with a dramatic reduction in wrinkles and fine lines but damage to surrounding areas of skin was quite shocking. A lot of celebrities are seeing great results with the Cynosure- Performa CO2 laser in the US. I believe it is going to be huge in the UK for 2011 as we venture further into the realm of non-surgical laser surgery.”
