Skin Resurfacing in Toronto

Skin discolouration and wrinkles from sun damage is a common complaint. For those patients who can comply with daily cream application and do not develop problematic redness or flaking, the most effective products are Vitamin A creams. We do not sell skin care products, as the most effective products (Vitamin A creams) are only available by prescription in the pharmacy. Many patients have difficulty maintaining a strict daily skin care regimen, and opt instead for our medium-depth chemical peels. Medium-depth chemical peels (trichloracetic acid) remove the epidermis (vs. discolorations) and stimulate the dermis (vs. wrinkles) of the skin to tighten and form new collagen. Although you will require a week or two for cosmetic recovery following a medium depth peel, there is no ‘non-invasive’ laser technique that can match it for effectiveness. We also perform dermabrasion, the gold standard for treating particularly deep wrinkles as seen around the mouths of smokers.

Skin Resurfacing Steps

Skin Resurfacing 1

Caption A

A chemical peel involves the application of a caustic solution to the entire face or just certain regions. The patient is shown with the peel solution applied to the cheeks and lower face.

Skin Resurfacing 2

Caption B

Dermabrasion uses a small, rapidly spinning wheel with a roughened surface similar to fine-grained sandpaper to abrade the skin, removing its upper layers.

Skin Resurfacing 3

Caption C

The laser removes skin layers by vaporization. The surgeon is able to specify the amount of energy transmitted to the skin’s surface by the laser beam and control the depth of penetration.

Skin Resurfacing 4

Caption D

Injectable fillers are an option to help diminish the appearance of facial lines and wrinkles.

It's been 8 months since I did my gynecomastia surgery here and the results are amazing. Dr. Kreidstein treated post op scar tissue and made sure I was happy with the results, and honestly you can't even tell there has been in incision around the areola.

Intelligent, compassionate, professional, conscientious and creative are all words I would use to describe Dr. Michael Kreidstein. This surgeon has extensive experience and it is very evident. Recently, I underwent a breast lift/reduction and abdominoplasty with fascial plication. Each team member at this clinic go above and beyond to ensure that every patient has a great experience. I was very nervous the day of my surgery but after meeting with the surgical team I felt more relaxed and knew I was in good hands. After I woke up from surgery, I had the most lovely, young RN looking after me in recovery. I could not have had a better surgical experience. I am now three weeks post op and I can honestly say that the results of my surgery have exceeded my expectations. Plastic Surgery is not just a science, it is an art too. Dr. Kreidstein has a very good sense of what is aesthetically pleasing and is able to work his magic on his canvas, the patient. The team at this clinic are committed to excellence. I would highly recommend this surgeon to anyone.

Dr Kreidstein and his staff were polite, professional and fully attentive to my needs from Day 1. I was tentative about cosmetic surgery (and getting umbilical hernias fixed as well). This doctor's caring and thorough approach made me feel relaxed and confident that he was the best person for the job. Everything gets done in his own 'in-house' clinic, so organization, familiarity and reasonable work is all a given. I completely recommend Michael Kreidstein to anybody in need of surgery.

Dr. Kreidstein was able to allay all my concerns of the abdominoplasty procedure I needed. I had thought about it for many years, postponing it because of life and living. I felt I could live with the old scars and some discomfort that evolved over time. It was not an easy decision for me. Once meeting with Dr. Kreidstein, he asked me the questions I needed to answer not only to him but for myself. He answered all my questions, and he thoroughly discussed the procedure. I knew I was in good hands with Dr. Kreidstein and his team, and staff. I will say Thank You to all of you, though the words will never express the relief and satisfaction I feel of having followed through the with procedure. Thank You, Dr. Kreidstein, Team, Staff :)
