Isolaz™
Isolaz™ is powered by a breakthrough technology called Photo pneumatics™ (Photo = light-based, Pneumatics = vacuum) which is the only therapy in the world that combines a vacuum with a painless laser to deep cleanse and purify your pores from the inside out.
Painless Isolaz™ therapies with deep pore purification include:
- Acne
- Skin rejuvenation to help resolve sun damaged skin, brown spots and tiny broken capillaries associated with rosacea
- Hair removal
Isolaz™ is quick, easy and painless. In fact, many people have their treatments done during lunch without any downtime. Many patients have found their skin feels tighter and has a healthy radiant glow following Isolaz therapy. Read more about ISOLAZ.
Pixel Laser treatments
The technology is known as ablative fractional technology. Skin is treated by removing tissue via a dot Pixel hand-piece. Pixel technology is performed as a localized or "scattered" ablation vs. total ablation as seen in other technology. The Pixel treats a small fraction of the skin, in a particular manner, where in which the tiny pixelations of skin are lasered within the assigned zone. The Pixel allows about 65% of the lasered skin to remain "as is" and untreated around the Pixel therapy treated areas. The untouched skin may then act as a reservoir for the promotion of rapid healing to the newly lasered skin, reducing the downtime significantly.
Skin resurfacing occurs as the laser passes over the affected skin to remove damaged outer layers and, through heat, stimulates the production of collagen and new skin cells in the underlying layers.
The Pixel technology allows for a smoother, tighter, and more improved skin texture after just several sessions, if not visible in the first session. The technology has demonstrated a triggering of biological responses that may lead to collagen remodeling; responsible for the smoothing of fine lines and wrinkles, improvement of laxity and discoloration.
The Pixel technology has been shown to improve the appearance of difficult to treat acne and keloid scars with just several treatments. The improvement that has been seen with tissue laxity, whether around the mouth, eyelids, or the neck, it is an excellent alternative to botox for several skin types.
Indications:
- Lessens acne or surgical scars
- Treats pigment related conditions
- Evens out uneven skin tone and smoothes skin texture
- Rejuvenates skin
- Lessens wrinkles and fine lines
- Reduces stretch marks
The Pixel laser resurfacing protocol has been shown to be so gentle that treatment can translate to those hard to treat areas once prohibitive by traditional resurfacing procedures, while being effective in such a short amount of time.
FotoFacial RF™
Aurora treatments
All
patients notice a consistent improvement in the appearance of their
skin. The degree of improvement is gradual and persistent over a
series of from three to six treatments depending upon the severity
of the environmental damage the patient has experienced.
The
degree of improvement can vary, but you will see significant improvement
in pink and brown discoloration, spider veins, generalized sun damage,
age spots, pore size, acne scarring, fine to moderate wrinkles,
acne scarring, skin texture irregularities, laxity and smoothness.
Would
this be a good treatment for my rosacea? - The
ELOS and IPL treatment described above is an accepted and extremely
successful procedure in reduction of the vascular lesions that characterize
rosacea. The PhotoFacial™ ELOS system treats the vascular
area at the appropriate settings to achieve general vein reduction,
and the Cutera IPL targets specific veins. The veins will either
fade or become dark as they are disabled, and will be absorbed into
your system within a few days. We also have topical solutions for
the management of Rosacea.
How
does the Aurora do this? - Each
pulse of the Aurora FotoFacial™ RF device sends two types
of energy into your skin, intense, pulsed visible light (IPL) which
is converted to thermal energy, followed by radio frequency (RF)
energy. The IPL heats the targeted lesion, the RF further weakens
it, causing brown spots, blood vessels, and redness to gradually
and gently fade, and in the case of hair reduction, causes hair
follicles to stop growing. At different settings, the synergistic
IPL and RF energy delivered by the Aurora penetrates to the dermis,
tightening and heating the collagen layer which stimulates new cell
growth.
Will
this treatment hurt - and will I have to miss work? - The
treatments have a tolerable level of discomfort, greatly reduced
or eliminated by the use of a topical anesthetic cream or our forced-air
skin cooling system. After each treatment patients can apply makeup
and return to normal activities. They rarely have down time or miss
work or their regular activities.
Orion Harmony Laser
The Harmony uses gentle light to restore skin to a more youthful
state. Brown spots caused from sun damage and aging, red or flushed
skin from rosacea or spider vessels, and rough skin texture will
improve or disappear following a series of treatments.
Each laser skin treatment will result in a gradual
lightening and improvement of pigmented and vascular imperfections.
After each laser skin treatment, there will be temporary pinkness in
the treated area and brown spots will become darker, before they lighten.
There is no downtime involved with Harmony photofacial rejuvenation.
Cutera
The
Intense Pulse Light or IPL works great at removing visible blood
vessels and removes a broad range of pigmented and vascular
lesions, while at the same time promoting collagen growth. The intense
pulse light penetrates the skin without disturbing the outer layers
of the dermis, basically working from the inside out.
The Cutera CoolGlide was designed to be the most
outstanding laser hair removal system on the market for all skin
types, from light to dark, including tanned patients. Its unique
design, longer wavelength, and innovative cooling allow extremely
effective, safe and permanent results.
Genesis
Laser Genesis improves the skin's overall appearance, particularly on face, neck and chest, decreasing fine line wrinkles and restoring even skin tones. Laser Genesis evens out acne scarring and is particularly effective in combination with other treatments such as chemical peels. Genesis can also be used to improve the appearance of other scars anywhere on the body. Genesis tightens pores and improves skin texture, smoothes ruddy complexions and diffuses excessive facial redness, including that caused by rosacea.
