What could modern cosmetology do for an oak tree? (Theoretically, of course — but using the most cutting-edge procedures of 2026)An oak tree carries 300–1000 years of history, thick bark, powerful roots, and the eternal problem of "age." Imagine we have a giant laser device, an RF station the size of a house, and an unlimited budget.

Here's what could be done to make the oak look like a "young maple after a spa day."

  1. Fractional laser resurfacing of the bark
    Giant-scale CO2 laser (10,600 nm) + Er:YAG (2940 nm).
    Removes cracks, moss, lichens, old lightning scars, and fungal lesions.
    Result: smooth, even bark without "wrinkles," like a young tree after a peel.
  2. Photo-rejuvenation and tone evening
    IPL (560–1200 nm) + picosecond 1064 nm.
    Lightens gray-brown spots, eliminates uneven coloring from sun and rain.
    The oak gets a uniform warm chocolate tone — premium aesthetic vibes.
  3. RF-lifting and trunk tightening
    Monopolar RF + HIFU at 4–7 MHz (depth up to 13 mm).
    Stimulates "collagen" synthesis in the wood (lignin + cellulose).
    Result: the trunk becomes slightly more elastic, sags less under its own weight.
  4. Laser leaf peeling
    532 nm (green) + 755 nm alexandrite.
    Removes yellowness, spots, and fungus. Leaves become bright green, as if it's spring all year round.
  5. Root mesotherapy
    Injections of hyaluronic acid + vitamins + peptides directly into the soil around the roots (theoretically).
    Improves moisture retention and nutrition. The oak looks "hydrated" and fresh.
  6. Laser removal of "warts" (galls and growths)
    808 nm diode + CO2 ablation.
    All bumps, growths, and insect galls — gone, smooth, no traces.
  7. Internal wood bleaching
    If someone decides to cut a branch — picosecond laser lightens the cut surface.
    The oak becomes a "blond" inside — perfect for designer furniture.
  8. Laser hair removal of moss and lichens
    1064 nm Nd:YAG — deep removal of all "hairy" guests on the bark.
    The oak remains perfectly clean and "shaved."
  9. Crown contouring
    RF-microneedles + laser branch lifting.
    Tightens drooping branches, makes the crown more compact and "fashionable."
  10. Full VIP package "Oak 2.0"

The result: A 500-year-old oak looks like a 50-year-old — young, smooth, radiant, bursting with vitality.
Now it's not just a tree — it's an Instagram millionaire tree.
