Treatment and Descriptions
Brown and Red Spots
Brown and red spots on the skin are caused by an excess of melanin in certain skin cells. Some pigmented lesions, such as birthmarks and age spots are closer to the surface, while others are deeper in the skin. Pulsed light heats the melanin in a pigmented lesion, which causes the lesions to disappear.
The procedure is done with AFT pulsed light which is applied in a series of gentle pulses over the treatment area.
While pain tolerance is an individual matter, most people tolerate AFT pulsed light treatment well, and describe the sensation as a slight rubber band snap to the skin.
AFT skin rejuvenation treatments range from 15 to 30 minutes depending on treatment area.
You can resume all regular activities immediately. There is no downtime! Treatment generally involves a series of three to five sessions. While some patients see significant improvement in two or three treatments, others may require more.
Side effects are rare. Immediately following treatment, the skin may appear flushed, brown pigmented spots may appear darker and capillaries may be more visible temporarily. To help guarantee the best results, limit your exposure to the sun for a few weeks before and after treatment.
Your skin will have a younger appearance, and will appear naturally even-toned and healthy, without the artificial look of other cosmetic treatments.
Fine Line and Wrinkles and Scar Removal
Pixel skin resurfacing improves skin texture and tone, smoothes wrinkles, and restores elasticity. It also improves scar appearance and enlarged pores. In short, this procedure erases those factors that add years to our appearance, restoring youthful vitality.
Pixel skin resurfacing is based on the principle of micro-thermal treatment zones. The laser pulses create tiny ablative zones, removing the epidermis and upper dermis. The treatment then triggers the body’s natural healing process, stimulating the growth of new, healthy skin tissue.
Generally, treatment involves two to four sessions, at four week intervals. Right after treatment you may feel a slight tingling sensation. You may experience slight swelling for a day or two. As new skin replaces dead tissue, your skin will flake a sign that healing is underway. Your skin will look better immediately, and will steadily improve over the next few months.
Pixel skin resurfacing can be used on patients of most skin types anywhere on the body. Since this procedure spares healthy tissue, it can be performed on delicate skin areas, such as the face, neck, chest and hands.
Skin Tightening
With its ever-growing popularity, skin tightening has quickly grown into a must-have application for clients interested in improving skin tone and texture. Skin Tightening with the Soprano is ideal for targeting those telltale signs of aging, including jowl and neck laxity, nasolabial folds (saggy cheeks), stomach, upper thighs and upper arms. Many people post pregnancy have found this procedure helpful in regaining their abdominal skin tone. Skin Tightening uses near infrared technology; deep dermal heating induces new youthful collagen production resulting in an increase in skin firmness. A series of five to six treatments produces a tighter, fresher appearance without pain or invasive procedures.
The Skin Tightening hand piece delivers uniform energy distribution and effectively targets lipids and connective tissue. It exerts its biological effect on the skin through two major mechanisms, heat-induced collagen shrinkage and micro-thermal injury producing dermal regeneration, repair and remodeling. This gives dramatic, yet comfortable deep dermal heating without damage to the epidermis and is used as an integral part of the popular Laser360™ treatment, which has seen success in our practice and in the media.
Acne
Skin rejuvenation is one of the most popular cosmetic procedures today which provides the ideal answer in removing sun damaged skin, brown and red spots, rosacea, as well as pigmented lesions. Rosacea, a skin disease in which blood vessels of the face enlarge resulting in a flushed appearance is treated as Skin Rejuvenation with IPL-AFT pulsed light.
The procedure is done with AFT pulsed light which is applied in a series of gentle pulses over the treatment area.
While pain tolerance is an individual matter, most people tolerate AFT pulsed light treatment well, and describe the sensation as a slight rubber band snap to the skin.
AFT skin rejuvenation treatments range from 15 to 30 minutes depending on treatment area. You can resume all regular activities immediately. There is no downtime! Treatment generally involves a series of three to five sessions. While some patients see significant improvement in two or three treatments, other may require more.
Side effects are rare. Immediately following treatment, the skin may appear flushed and capillaries may be more visible temporarily. To help guarantee the best results, limit your exposure to the sun for several weeks before and after treatment.
Your skin will have a younger appearance, and will appear naturally even-toned and healthy, without the artificial look of other cosmetic treatments.
Laser Hair Removal
Laser Light MD provides you with a new revolution, for permanent body hair reduction that is virtually painless. The Pain-Free, Hair-Free™ laser hair removal treatment, offered by spas and physicians around the world, can now free you from daily shaving, painful plucking and expensive waxing to give you silky smooth and beautifully bare skin.
Pain-Free, Hair-Free is an effective and permanent hair reduction solution that is simple and easy. It gently heats targeted hair follicles with gentle pulses of laser energy, while you stay comfortable. Nearly any part of the body can be treated, including the face, neck, legs, arms, bikini, stomach, back, etc.
Pain-Free, Hair-Free is laser hair removal at its finest and is only available on the SopranoXL system by Alma Lasers. The IN Motion technology gradually heats the hair follicles under the skin until they can no longer produce new hair. Since the laser is in constant motion, your treatment area can be wider- which makes sessions go quickly.
SopranoXL uses 810-nm diode laser technology, the gold standard in laser hair removal since its recent introduction. Unlike earlier systems, however, SopranoXL energy penetrates deep into the dermis (where the hair follicle is located) with high average power and a rapid 10 pulse-per-second repetition rate.
The unique pulse structure of SopranoXL incorporates two discrete pulses. The first is a preheated long pulse that safely heats the tissue; the second short pulse effectively destroys the hair follicle and its surrounding vasculature.
