Skin Rejuvenation

Photorejuvenation

Skin Tightening, Sun & Age Spot Removal
 
What is Photorejuvenation?
A non-laser, pulsed light treatment that effectively reduces facial redness and flushing as well as the visible signs of sun damage and aging. Additionally, laser light produces heat beneath the skin which stimulates collagen production, and results in tightening of the skin.  
 
What areas can be treated?
Virtually any part of your body with sun and age spots or freckles can be safely treated. The face, chest, shoulders and arms are the most popular areas for treatment because they typically receive the most sun exposure. Both discrete spots and skin densely covered with freckles respond well to Photorejuvenation.
 
How many treatments will I need? 
Typically, one or two treatments are sufficient to see dramatic results. Additional treatments may be required for very large or dark spots or for densely covered areas.
 
What happens after the treatment?
Immediately following the treatment, the spots may begin to darken. You may notice a slight reddening of the surrounding skin. This typically subsides within a few hours, and within one to three weeks the darkened spots will fade and flake off.
 
When will I see results?
Most patients see significant improvement within two to three weeks of treatment. However, your final results may not be apparent for a month or more. 
 

Fractional Non-Ablative Skin Rejuvenation

Professional Ageless Med Spa Salon – Utilizing Next Generation Palomar Laser Technology to rejuvenate and restore damaged skin while virtually eliminating acne scars and stretch marks.

Fractional Non-Ablative Skin RejuvenationWhat is Fractional Non-Ablative Skin Rejuvenation?
As we age, our skin can become uneven, wrinkled, dis-colored and scarred as a result of exposure to the elements. Our professional rejuvenation technicians use the latest Palomar lasers to improve photo-aged skin. The Palomar treatment has achieved FDA clearance because it is proven to reduce fine wrinkle lines and most acne scars with minimal treatments. This unique Med-Spa process uses lasers to conduct heat deeper into the dermis essentially by-passing the top layer of skin to treat tissue beneath the outer layers.
 
Who should use Fractional Non-Ablative Skin Rejuvenation?
The best candidates for this “skin rejuvenating” therapy are usually between 25 & 65 years of age with minimal facial sagging. This technique promotes skin coagulation without the recovery time and costly preparation of Ablative procedures. Non-Ablative laser technology is very effective at improving under-eye appearance, skin texture from acne scars, fine wrinkles, stretch marks & photo-aging.

Benefits of Fractional Non-Ablative Skin Rejuvenation

  • Excellent results with minimal treatment time – facial and chest treatments completed in as little as 12 minutes
  • Minimal to no pain during the procedure – mild topical anesthesia can make it painless
  • Fast Recovery time of 3-5 days – mild facial redness & minimal swelling occurs in most cases
  • 4-6 non-invasive treatments typically  produce the desired skin enhancing results
Why Use Non-Ablative rather than Ablative Technology?
Ablative treatments are typically used to improve thicker wrinkles or deep acne blemishes. This technology is more severe requiring topical anesthesia and can cause epidermal burning. Recovery times using this technique are much longer than Non-Ablative techniques, limiting work or social obligations for up to 10 days and may take up to 4-6 weeks to fully recover.
 
Non-Ablative treatments are typically 12 minutes long, are much less severe and do not require topical anesthesia in most cases. Non-Ablative treatments are ideal for mild to moderate wrinkling, stretch marks and photo-aging. This technique can effectively eliminate most acne scars and stretch marks over a series of 4-6 treatments. Most patients may experience only mild discomfort followed by roughly three days of redness. 
 
How Many Non-Ablative Treatments will I need?
The number of treatments required will depend on the severity of the imperfection and the type of correction desired. Most changes will occur gradually over 4-6 treatments providing the desired cumulative aesthetic benefit with impressive skin texture and tone.
 
Post Treatment Care
Our professional Ageless Med Spa technicians offer tailored post treatment relief based on individual patient requirements and needs. Typical post treatment care requires easy-to-apply daily application of healing ointments for a short period of time to reduce swelling and eliminate redness.
