If the effects of sun damage, aging, or scars have affected your appearance, laser resurfacing may be an option for you. Smooth away superficial lines and wrinkles with our skin rejuvenation services and discover a younger-looking you!

Dr. Schlessinger has been specially trained in the innovative Cool Touch II™ SilkTouch®, FeatherTouch®, Derma-K® and Erbium:YAG lasers. Dr. Schlessinger is Nebraska's first certificated skin-rejuvenation laser surgeon, lectures nationally and trains numerous physicians on techniques regarding these advanced lasers.

After a local anesthetic is applied to the area, the top layer of skin is treated, revealing new skin underneath. Treatment for our laser resurfacing patients may also include Botox®, collagen, peels, microdermabrasion and glycolic applications for optimum results.

Derma Peel Microdermabrasion is a new skin rejuvenation process using microscopic crystals to gently exfoliate skin and restore smoothness and softness. Derma Peel takes only minutes to perform and is called the 'lunchtime peel' because it can be performed over the lunch hour. After the peel you can put your make-up on and go back to work right away! It takes only about 10 minutes and is followed by a soothing mask on your face - and just the right amount of pampering!

Derma-K®
Skin Specialists was one of the first practices in the nation to offer the exciting Derma-K® skin resurfacing treatment. Derma-K® represents the new standard in laser resurfacing of the skin - utilizing a combination of CO and erbium:YAG technology to alleviate wrinkles, blemishes and the effects of sun damage. If you're looking for the most effective way to rejuvenate your skin, Derma-K® laser may be a great option for you!
