“These treatments are actually not about ‘anti-aging.’ Aging should be viewed as a blessing! Having another 1, 5, 10 years of life is a blessing. It is the SIDE EFFECTS of the aging process that we are fighting against! And these treatments can do just that!”
Utilizing laser technology, skin concerns such as fine lines and wrinkles, uneven pigment, brown spots from UV damage, unwanted veins or hair, rosacea, acne, even precancerous skin cells, can be effectively treated to repair and improve the skins health.
Laser and Intense Pulse Light(IPL) treatments use a beam of light, set to a particular wavelength, to target and eliminate abnormal or damaged tissue. The wavelength of the IPL and laser beam will also stimulate the growth of healthy new skin cells, collagen and elastin. Collagen and elastin are the vital components of skin that provide firmness and elasticity. and strength and healthy youthful glow.
Laser skin treatments will improve the health of the skin and ultimately the overall appearance, wiping away years of the SIDE EFFECTS that can come from the natural aging process.
IPL Photofacial
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) is different than a laser in that the technology is different. An IPL releases a broadband of light (BBL) with many wavelengths vs. a laser that has a single, focused wavelength of light directed at its target. Both modalities are highly effective, but may be used for particular skin concerns.
IPL Photofacial targets melanin(pigment of freckles/brown spots) caused by UV exposure, drawing it the the skins surface and gradually self exfoliates, leaving the skin with a youthful, even skin tone.
