Treatment Options
Limelight Facial Treatment (IPL)
The LimeLight Facial is a non-invasive approach to skin revitalization and it is our IPL (intense pulse light) treatment. Using a special handheld device, Limelight (IPL) is applied to the treatment area. The light will penetrate the outer layers of the skin and be absorbed by the target cell. Your body’s immune system will then cleanse the tissue and stimulate new cell growth. This new cell growth creates improved skin tone, texture, and appearance. IPL may be a great treatment for you if you have the following concerns:
- Brown spots and hyperpigmentation
- Pigmented lesions
- Vascular irregularities
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Sun damage
Most patients can expect to see results within 2-4 treatments, such as darkened spots flaking or falling off, a decrease in diffuse redness, and an improvement in uneven complexion. Patients may experience a mild pinch or stinging sensation with the pulse of the light, but this will quickly diminish when the treatment ends.
Our provider will customize this treatment to suit your skin type and treatment goals. Most patients report minimal discomfort and downtime. Multiple treatments are recommended for optimal results–the exact number of treatments often depends on the specific area being treated.
YAG Laser Genesis
Laser Genesis is an innovative way to promote vibrant and healthy looking skin in both men and women. It has been shown to produce new collagen, reduce pore size, and smooth fine lines and wrinkles. The treatment works by gently heating the upper dermis well below your skin’s surface. While you can expect to see a subtle response following each treatment, we recommend receiving 4-5 consistent treatments to see the best results.
YAG Coolglide Laser
The Cutera CoolGlide Laser safely and effectively treats the tiny, superficial veins and the deeper blue leg veins in men and women of all skin tones. By delivering a pulse of light energy into the vessel, the blood within the vein coagulates, eventually destroying the vessel and redirecting the blood flow to veins deeper below the skin’s surface. The number of treatments needed depends on the size, number, and color of the vessels being targeted. Re-treatment may be necessary as veins may reappear. Some patients may experience a stinging sensation while the pulses are being delivered, however after the treatment, there is minimal to no discomfort.
