Chapter 5 – Serums and Products
In March of 2003, the American Dermatological Society suggested that the use
of anti-oxidant vitamin serums with photo rejuvenation gave better cosmetic
effects than using either alone. This observation has lead to the use of many
types of serums in conjunction with photo rejuvenation. Photo rejuvenation is a
new technology and exact protocols for using different types of serums are still
being established. We will give you some general guidelines to use these
products with photo rejuvenation. Contacting the manufacturer’s representative
of the particular products is always recommended.
