Laser Treatments
We provide all types of laser treatments at Lane Dermatology and Dermatologic Surgery and Lane Aesthetics in Columbus, GA. With a variety of laser, radiofrequency (RF), intense pulsed light (IPL), and photodynamic (PDT) treatments, we are able to serve a large and diverse population of patients.
Many laser treatments are primarily used to treat skin laxity by facial tightening, and are best suited for patients with mild to moderate sagging of facial tissues, usually those in their mid 30s to 60s. It is commonly used to treat the forehead, under the eyes, cheeks, mid-face, jawline, and neck. Based on current laser treatments and technologies, most people should see at least a mild improvement in their skin tightness, with minimal risks and downtime compared to surgery.

Fraxel Dual
Fraxel® DUAL RESTORING YOUR YOUTHFULNESS
The Fraxel treatment is a safe, non-ablative laser skin procedure that can resurface damaged skin and uncover the youthful skin you long for:
• Improved tone and texture
• Reduced wrinkles around the eyes
• Erasing of unwanted brown spots
• Improved appearance of acne scars and surgical scars
• Effective treatment of pre-cancerous lesions (actinic keratosis)
• Excellent treatment for face, neck, chest, arms, legs, and back
Fraxel treatment uses patented fractional technology to target damaged skin with microscopic laser columns that penetrate deep into the skin. The laser treats only a fraction of tissue at a time, leaving the surrounding tissue untouched, which promotes rapid healing. This stimulates your body’s own natural healing process, replacing the old and damaged cells with fresh, glowing, healthy skin.
The results are both immediate and progressive. Soon after the treatment, the surface of your skin will feel softer and smoother, look brighter and show a more even tone. The next 3 to 6 months will bring more improvement as the deeper layers of the skin continue to create new collagen. Results are long lasting depending on your lifestyle, age, skin condition and skin care regimen.
Desired outcomes are typically reached in multiple treatments. The specific number of treatments is tailored to your goals and desired results as well as your lifestyle. We will work with you to identify the appropriate level of treatment and your preferred downtime.
Depending on the level of the treatment, you may experience redness or swelling after the procedure which diminishes as quickly as the next day or over the next several days. Your skin will naturally bronze over the next week or two. As you continue with the treatment sessions, the sunburned-to-bronzed appearance will repeat after each treatment. As with a sunburn, your skin will flake and exfoliate normally, revealing fresher, glowing and smoother looking and feeling skin.
Fraxel treatment is a safe option backed by extensive research. Of course, as with any laser procedure, there’s always some risk* and/or downtime. You should discuss this with your clinician prior to treatment.
Carbon Dioxide (CO2) Fraxel re:pair by Solta medical
The Fraxel Re:pair is the most powerful cutaneous laser and aimed at fighting wrinkles and chronic sun damage. Dr. Lane has used carbon dioxide lasers since his training and has published numerous peer-reviewed journal articles and textbook chapters on multiple uses with the CO2 laser.
Fractional laser technology means that precise surgical laser pulses are delivered such that small skip areas of normal skin remain to speed up the recovery process. This method also allows for the skin-tightening effect of this laser.
Fraxel is for people who want to look good – and want real results – but don’t want the overcharge or extended downtimes that come with surgery.
Fraxel fits into any lifestyle and your current beauty regimen:
- Non-invasive, clinically proven to be safe, easily managed into your routine
- Real change you just can’t get from lotions and creams
- A simple, effective treatment that really reverses signs of aging
GentleYag by Syneron-candela
The GentleYAG laser system uses a high-energy wavelength that emits a gentle beam of light to target problem hair without affecting the healthy surrounding skin. The skin is first sprayed with a cooling device to increase comfort during the procedure. The GentleYAG has a long pulse duration to effectively remove hair no matter how fair or dark the patient’s skin type. It eliminates the endless hair removal headaches of waxing, plucking, and shaving. The procedure is less painful than electrolysis, less tedious, and can be completed quickly. Delicate pores and skin are safe during this procedure. The laser energy is transformed into heat permanently destroying the hair at the follicle without damaging the surrounding skin. The whole process can typically be completed in under 30 minutes to an hour.
