WRINKLE REDUCTION AND ACNE SCAR IMPROVEMENT

WRINKLE REDUCTION AND ACNE SCAR IMPROVEMENT

We are using the newest fractional technology to significantly reduce the appearance of wrinkles and acne scarring. The Palomar 1540 fractional technology produces thousands of tiny but deep columns of treatmens in your skin, known as microthermal treatment zones. This is done with limited discomfort to the patient as the Palomar 1540 utilizes patented cooling. Just as important as the treated areas are the areas of skin that are left untouched. The fractional treatment allows the skin to heal much faster than if the entire area was treated at once, using the body's natural healing process to create new, healthy tissue. For a limited time we are offering a special promotion utilizing the fractional technology!

We are now offering skin tightening with minimal discomfort. Introducing the LUXIR laser that sends infrared light pulses deep into the dermis, where it creates a carefully controlled area of elevated temperature. This technology has been shown to trigger a biological response which leads to collagen remodeling in the deep dermis. Remodeled collagen can smooth out fine wrinkles and tighten sagging skin.

Technologies Used >> Alma Soprano Diode Laser

Today, laser hair removal is the fastest-growing procedure in modern cosmetic dermatology.  For men and women, lasers have become a popular solution for excessive hair, generally on the face, legs, bikini (for women) and neck, back and chest (for men).  Both women and men will appreciate the diode laser's ability to remove even the coarsest hair from relatively large body areas.  Diode laser hair removal is a non-invasive and effective approach which yields permanent hair reduction and long-term hair removal - anywhere on the face or body.

HOW DOES DIODE LASER TECHNOLOGY WORK?

Diode lasers are the most effective of all laser wavelengths for hair removal.  The laser eliminates unwanted hair by emitting a beam of light on to skin.  Passing harmlessly through the skin, the light targets the pigment (melanin) within the hair follicle and hair shaft.  As the follicles absorb this laser energy, they are disabled, and unable to produce new hair.  The result: lasting hair removal with no downtime. 

 

Before After

IS IT SAFE?

Diode laser parameters are specially designed to match your skin type and hair type, assuring exceptionally exact and gentle treatments.  Immediately after treatment, the area may appear and feel mildly sunburned, a reaction that usually subsides within a day or so.

DOES IT HURT?

While pain tolerance is an individual matter, most people tolerate laser treatments well, and describe the sensation as a rubber band snap to the skin.  The majority of patients require no anesthesia, though topical anesthetic is an option if needed. 

HOW LONG DOES A LASER TREATMENT TAKE?

While this  laser is able to cover relatively large areas at high speed, the exact treatment time is determined by the size of the area being treated.  The eyebrow area may take only a few minutes; the back may require up to an hour.

HOW MANY TREATMENTS ARE NECESSARY?

All hair follicles go through periods of dormancy and growth.  As laser light only affects hair follicles that are actively producing hair at the time of  treatment, resting follicles must enter the growth phase before they can be effectively treated.  For this reason, treatment must be repeated until all follicles have passed through the growing phase.  It has been our experience that six or more treatments are needed at intervals of one month to three months.
