Diode Laser Hair Removal

For many people, body hair is far more than just a cosmetic problem.  In some cases, facial hair or a hairy back can have a devastating impact on self-esteem.  However, conventional methods of hair removal such as plucking, electrolysis or waxing are painful, time-consuming and always of limited duration only.  Frequent shaving stresses the skin, leaves stubble and must be repeated constantly.  The only real alternative is laser treatment.

Laser hair removal removes unsightly unwanted hair from different parts of the body.  Concentrated light energy tackles the problem of hair at its root.  Our systems are specialized for efficient and gentle hair removal.  The application of light damages the root of the hair and stops the hair from regrowing.

During the procedure, the skin is cooled to make the application almost painless— only a slight pinching sensation on the skin to indicate that the hair follicles were successfully destroyed.

This procedure is recommended to be done every 3-4 weeks and is performed by a board-certified dermatologist.

     

Pigment Laser

Pigment Laser (Revlite) is a state of the art Q-switch laser which specifically targets the pigment-producing cells and decreases pigment production.  It is one the most well-researched Q switch lasers with studies backing up its effectivity and good safety profile.  This revolutionary laser has a unique feature, the Photoacoustic Technology Pulse, which delivers very narrow pulse widths at peak energy, enabling highly effective procedures with less heat and increased safety.  The laser light penetrates the skin in the form of photoacoustic waves that gently shatters the unwanted pigment molecules, and these broken down pigments are gradually and naturally eliminated by the immune system.

The procedure takes less than 10 mins– the laser is that powerful and effective.  This treatment is relatively painless with minimal downtime.  Most individuals can resume their normal activities right after the procedure.  You may experience some slight, temporary redness right after the procedure, which usually disappears within a few hours to a day after treatment.  You can expect to see initial results right after treatment, with continued improvements during weeks following treatment, as new collagen continues to form in the treatment area.

Fotona Laser 4D Facelift

Fotona 4D Laser is a procedure that involves non-invasive laser face lifting.  It is a unique combination of four distinct modes of aesthetic treatment harnessed in concert to combat facial aging.  It is a series of synergistic non-invasive treatments of both the exterior face and interior oral cavity, enabling full-thickness contraction of collagen for persistent tightening and volumization (wrinkle reduction) without injectables.  The four dimensions of Fotona 4D are:

1. Smoothliftin™: The first step involves a pain-free treatment which targets volume through a process called collagen induction. The effects are an overall improvement of tightness and elasticity of the skin along a plumping effect, much like a filler.
2. FRAC3®: The second step involves the targetedtreatment of specific, deeper imperfections in the skin like spots and vascular components. This is fast, effective and will help restore youthful texture.
3. PIANO®: The third stage of Fotona 4D involves heating the skin safely and rapidly from the outside by concentrating energy delivery subcutaneously. This is done using a brusging technique and provides an outstanding tightening effect for areas experiencing skin laxity.
4. Superficial™: The final stage is like a polishing effect for your skin. The treatment removes dead skin cells to reveal the brighter, healthier tissue below and provides that noticeable “glow” to your skin.
