IPL or "INTENSE PULSED LIGHT" PHOTO FACIAL REJUVENATION

Is a non-invasive technique that erases skin damage without disrupting the skin’s surface.  Unlike laser resurfacing, there are no wounds to heal and as such, no disruption in your daily activities.  While certain lasers are used to treat red spots, others to treat brown discoloration, and still others for skin resurfacing, no technology provides both the improvement in skin color and texture as an IPL treatment – all without the slightest interruption in your busy lifestyle.  You can even apply make-up within 2 hours after having completed a treatment. 

The ideal IPL candidate is someone who demonstrates photo aging.  While IPL can improve fine lines and wrinkles, it will not improve, to a significant degree, sagging of the facial structures and is not a substitute for some of the more aggressive techniques.

IPL is ideal for: - Enlarged pores, - Fine Lines and Wrinkles, - Rosacea and Reddish Discoloration, - Lentigenes, Melasma and other brown pigmentation disorders, - Dull complexions.  After a series of treatments, you will see a significant reduction of unwanted pigmentation and the appearance of a smoother, revitalized younger appearing skin.  IPL can be used on the neck, chest and hands as well as the face.

LIGHT SHEAR DIODE HAIR REMOVAL LASER

In the past, the usual remedies for unwanted hair were plucking, shaving, waxing or other chemical depilatories.  For long-term hair removal, electrolysis is popular and effective but can be painful, slow and costly.  It typically would take months or even years of regular visits to improve even the smallest of areas.  With the Light Shear Diode Laser, larger areas can be treated more efficiently and effectively.  With three treatments there should be an over 90% reduction of hair. 

Laser Hair Removal works best for darkly pigmented coarse hair.  Individuals with fine blonde hair are not candidates for this technology.  Areas treated can include the face, legs, arm pits, bikini, arms, etc – wherever there is unwanted hair. 

MEDICAL MICRO-DERMABRASION ...

Is not a chemical, not a laser, not a surgical procedure! Gentle Micro-dermabrasion using the Parisian Peel System from Paris takes 30 minutes to treat your face.  A stream of very fine crystals and mild suction applied exactly where it is needed.  The gentle abrasive action of the crystals combined with suction removes the dead, outer layer of skin while bringing smoother, softer skin to the surface.  This process works equally well on all colors of skin and is effective in treating sun damaged skin, age spots, superficial pigmentation, fine lines and wrinkles, enlarged or oily pores, black-heads, whiteheads and acne scars.  Frequently Micro Dermabrasion is combined with Photo Facial Rejuvenation.
