Dermaplaning
By exfoliating the skin's top layers, dermaplaning provides a quick and effective method of treating acne scars, wrinkles and fine lines, and sun damage. A specialized surgical blade is used to remove the dead upper layers of skin, leaving behind a more even complexion. Because dermaplaning does not require any recovery time, patients can apply make-up and return to their normal activities immediately after treatment.
Chemical Peel
A chemical peel can rejuvenate the face by safely removing the skin's dead outer layers to reveal the fresh and radiant underlying skin. A skin peel can smooth fine wrinkles and lines and reduce the prominence of uneven skin pigmentation and acne scars. In fact, a chemical peel can sometimes even be used to effectively control acne.
During the chemical peel procedure, a chemical solution is applied to the skin to safely exfoliate dead cells without affecting the healthy skin underneath. No anesthetic is necessary, and the patient feels only a slight tingling sensation. Depending on the solution used to perform the peel, recovery time can take just a few hours or as long as two weeks. We will advise you on the chemical peel most suited to your skin type and fully inform you of what to expect after the procedure.

Lumenis® UltraPulse CO2 Laser
Dr. Wittpenn is proud to feature the Lumenis® UltraPulse carbon dioxide laser for skin resurfacing at New Horizons Plastic Surgery in Nacogdoches. The UltraPulse CO2 laser is used to gently remove skin damaged or marred by photodamage (sun damage), moderate to deep wrinkles, brown spots, precancerous spots, improve scars from burns and acne and a number of other imperfections.
During laser skin resurfacing, we apply a high-energy laser beam to the skin, which has been numbed with a local anesthetic. The laser allows us to gently vaporize damaged skin, scars, and wrinkles. In as little as one hour and 3-5 days of healing, you could enjoy the fresh, younger looking skin that will take years off your look!
