Laser resurfacing is a treatment that reduces facial wrinkles and skin irregularities including blemishes or acne scars. The technique directs laser light at irregular skin. The process can improve skin tone, texture, and coloration by creating a controlled injury in the tissue that stimulates the body to have a healing response that leaves the skin looking better.
Morpheus8
This skin treatment uses needling and fractional lasers to stimulate collagen production of the underlying layers of the skin to reveal a more radiant youthful appearance. Morpheus8 can be used on the face and neck, for a tighter, smoother look, and on larger areas of the body to reduce the look of wrinkles, lines, and sagging that comes with aging and a loss of natural elasticity. Results are permanent and lasting with the proper treatment plan and annual maintenance treatments.
Lumecca
Also known as a photofacial, this is the most powerful intense pulsed light (IPL) designed to treat pigmented and vascular lesions. After just one use, patients notice significant improvement in the complexion and clarity of the skin. Lumecca improves the appearance of age spots, vascular lesions, rosacea, freckles, and sun damage. We offer single and multiple treatment options, depending on desired results.
Vasculaze
Vasculaze is used to alleviate vascular blemishes on the body with a laser that specifically targets the blood vessels causing the blemish. It is used to treat and heal visible veins, spider veins, port-wine stains, telangiectasias, and angiomas on the body, including on the arms, upper and rear thighs, and lower legs caused by genetics, aging, lifestyle, weight gain, prolonged standing, and even pregnancy. We typically recommend a 3-treatment protocol.
Laser Treatment of Hyperhidrosis
Laser treatments apply laser energy to the primary axillary glands under the arm to effectively treat hyperhidrosis, also known as excessive sweating. The area is often treated with a local anesthetic before the procedure for minimal discomfort. We recommend a 4-treatment protocol.
How long does it last?
On average, patients can expect laser results to last anywhere from 3-5 years from having the procedure done. It’s possible for patients to extend their results beyond five years and we recommend a maintenance plan to keep you looking your best.
What about downtime?
Laser treatments require no down time. However, your skin heals from within and therefore final results take about two weeks to be visible. Many patients report peeling 5-10 days after treatment and some redness or scabbiness is normal and part of the healing process. We’ll provide additional tips and guidelines at the time of your appointment.
