Facial wrinkles are an inevitable side effect of aging and many treatments are available to reduce wrinkles including botox, dermal fillers and surgery. For certain types of facial wrinkles, these treatments fall short of achieving a significant and lasting improvement. Examples of such wrinkles would include vertical ?smoker?s lines? of the upper and lower lips, criss-cross lines of the cheeks, crepey skin of the eyelids and cobble stone skin texture around the mouth. While some of these types of wrinkles may be improved to some degree by dermal fillers, many people have wrinkles that are too widespread or that don?t respond well to injectable treatments. In these patients, laser resurfacing may present an excellent option.
