Cosmetic Laser Treatments

Cosmetic Laser Treatments have become a paramount solution in effectively addressing a host of skin irregularities including facial lines, blemishes, redness, sun damage and acne scars.  Several varieties of laser treatments using different laser energies effectively target and remedy each particular diagnosis.  Light/Photo energies target and remedy pigmentation and redness issues.  Thulium and Erbium energies are an effective treatment for skin resurfacing.  Finally, Radio Frequency Energies are effective for deep skin tightening.  In all laser scenarios, as the treatment area heals, the end result is a significantly improved and revitalized appearance without the need of full cosmetic surgery.  

Below are some of the more popular laser treatment options which are available.

ThermiSmooth RF: 

ThermiSmooth RF heats the treatment area at a selected therapeutic temperature to contract collagen molecules and stimulate collagen production, tighten the skin and reduce wrinkles. This procedure improves a sagging jawline, eyelids and laxity of the neck.  May be used on face and body.  The ThermiSmooth RF treatment typically takes 4 treatments performed at 3-week intervals and is very tolerable. Downtime: None.

Cutera Xeo: 

The Cutera Xeo treatments have been a mainstay in the aesthetic industry for over 20 years.  The Xeo is a multi-application that is customizable and treats a wide array of today’s most common nonsurgical aesthetic concerns - veins, pigment, wrinkles, hair removal and skin revitalization.

Xeo Laser Genesis Skin Revitalization & Resurfacing:  The Laser Genesis is perfect for individuals interested in combating signs of aging to reveal a new, radiant complexion. Laser Genesis dramatically improves years of accumulated sun damage, wrinkles and age spots safely and effectively.  Downtime: None.

Xeo IPL Pigmented Lesions:  The IPL (intense pulse light) of the Cutera Xeo is the gold standard for treating brown spots, age spots, sun damage and hereditary freckles.  The combined use of light and photo energy pulls pigment out of the skin resulting in a fresher, more even skin tone and glow.  The IPL (or photo facial) darkens brown spots temporarily until they slough off over a period of 7-14 days.  The IPL is also suitable for the entire body as well as for a variety of treatment areas.  In order to achieve the best results, IPL treatments are normally administered after the summer months during the Fall, Winter and Springtime.    Downtime: Little to none.

Xeo 1064 YAG Vascularities, Rosacea, Redness & Bruising:  Whether it is leg veins, facial veins, angiomas, venous lakes, rosacea, or redness, the 1064 YAG of the Xeo Cutera has become the number one treatment option to safely and effectively remove and diminish unwanted vascular concerns.  The Cutera Xeo also effectively removes bruises. Whether it is post-injectables, surgery or any trauma that has caused a small or large and unsightly bruise, the 1064 YAG arm of the Cutera Xeo cuts bruising time by half or more!  Downtime: Little to none.
