Suggested Treatments for Sun Damage
IPL Photorejuvenation
IPL can be used to target skin conditions on the face, neck, chest, arms and hands. This procedure is extremely effective and very tolerable. A series of 3 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart will ensure you have little to no downtime and will give you the best results and value. You will see your skin health and appearance continue to improve with every session. Once your series is complete, we will recommend the proper home care products to preserve your newly restored skin. Microdermabrasion is recommended 14 days post IPL to encourage exfoliation and fading of brown spots.
Micro-Needling
Micro-needling is ideal for non-surgical and non-ablative treatment of various skin conditions such as aging (wrinkles, loose skin), scarring (acne, surgical), photodamage, and hyperpigmentation. Clinical studies have shown microneedle therapy to be very effective in stimulating collagen and elastin production to thicken the skin thereby reducing wrinkles and smoothing scars. This treatment will dramatically increase the effectiveness of skin care products, through improved penetration of nutrients and vitamins into the active layers of the skin. We offer cosmetic rollers which are for personal, home use and a medical treatment performed in the clinic to obtain more effective results.
Microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion is a procedure which gently resurfaces the skin. This exfoliation is performed with medical grade, diamond tip applicators which are passed across the skin’s surface removing dead and damaged cells at the skin’s surface. By eliminating these surface cells, the skin is left soft and supple while forcing the regeneration of new skin cells.
Peels & Facials
Peels use either chemicals or natural enzymes such as papaya and pumpkin to deeply cleanse and resurface the skin. Skin is left clearer and with a more even tone and texture. Enzyme peels help to promote renewal within healthy cells and nourish the skin. Great to improve clarity in the skin by sloughing dead skin cells which can lead to clogging pores and acne.
