Laser treatment can be an effective way to treat lip wrinkles if they are superficial and not severe. Laser treatment will work best to get rid of them when they first appear to allow you to start taking preventive measure to keep them from coming back. Laser treatments resurface the skin by essentially damaging it and forcing it to grow new healthy skin. It can get rid of light wrinkles easily but there are limitations to what I can do. It is important that you know what to expect realistically from the laser treatment, how it will benefit you and what risks you run by getting the treatment.

Laser treatments can not help deep wrinkles nor can it help firm up sagging or loose skin. Also the effects of laster treatments are not permanent and further treatments will have to be done to keep up the desired results. This is because the causes of wrinkles are not helped by laser treatment, it only rids you of the results. That is why it is best to use the treatment at the first sign of a problem and then add preventive measure to minimize the need to use it again.

There are some risks associated with laser treatments. It is possible for your skin to suffer from either hyper or hypo pigmentation where the skin gets shade lighter or darker than usual following the treatment. This can last for days of up to many months. The darker your skin the more likely you are to get hyper-pigmentation. It worst case scenarios the effects may be permanent but this is extremely rare.

It is also possible to get the infection associated with cold sores, herpes virus infection. Most of the time the virus is already in the skin lying dormant and the laster treatment simply stimulates it. If you have had cold sores that were severe or frequent in your life time or have a recent herpes outbreak you can be prescribed anti-viral medications before the treatment to prevent infections.

There are several kinds of laser treatments on the market today so consult with your dermatologist or plastic surgeon to determine which on is best for you. is going to depend on your skin tone, the issues you are having and their severity. Laser treatments have had some major advances recently so if you have checked them out before and thought they were not for you, then you may want to see if there has been something new that will work for you.
