Laser Facials/Photo-Rejuvenation

Laser Genesis Skin Therapy is a painless, innovative, technologically advanced way to promote vibrant and healthy looking skin in both men and women. Recapture your youthful appearance through the reduction of lines, wrinkles, pigment irregularities and surface imperfections such as those caused by acne scarring. Treat conditions that are typically associated with premature signs of aging such as unsightly facial veins (telangiectasia), age spots, redness and sun damaged skin. genesis skin therapy

Since the Laser Genesis procedure is non-ablative, there is no visible change to the surface of the skin and one can return to work or normal activities immediately following treatment. Patients generally notice immediate improvement in darkly pigmented areas (lentigines) and broken blood vessels (telangiectasias), whereas the improvement in fine lines and wrinkles is gradual and occurs over several weeks to months.

Laser Genesis Skin Therapy promotes healthy looking skin by combining a gentle warming of the skin while specifically targeting fine structures in the dermis. This entails the use of a short pulse NdYag laser to stimulate the skin’s own fibroblasts to produce collagen, procollagen and elastin.


Hair Removal

Today's advanced solutions to hair removal can deliver permanent results as opposed to older, traditional hair removal treatments such as shaving and waxing. Because the laser treats more than one hair at a time, it is possible treat larger areas such as the back, shoulders, arms, legs and face. Laser treatments leave your skin looking and feeling smoother and silkier. They are a safe, fast, gentle and effective alternate method for hair removal.

The CoolGlide Vantage Laser System can remove hair from all parts of the body including sensitive areas such as the breasts and bikini area. The cooling hand piece increases comfort and safety by soothing and protecting the skin. The CoolGlide can treat all skin tones and even patients with a suntan.

The number of treatments you may require for optimal long-term benefits depends on the area you wish to have treated, the hair density, and your hair's growth cycle. Age, ethnicity, weight, hormones, diet, medication, and metabolism all play a part in your hair's location, thickness and resilience. The laser treats the hair in the growth cycle only. Since all hair follicles are not in the same growth cycle at the same time, multiple treatments are required to deliver optimal results. Treatment results will vary from patient to patient depending on skin and hair color.

Vein Laser Therapy

Laser therapy is used primarily in the treatment of the smallest telangiectias, commonly called spider veins or broken capillaries. We can treat unwanted, unsightly and painful leg veins with state of the art laser treatment or sclero (injectable) therapy.


Collagen Replacement Therapy

This treatment smoothes facial lines that are caused by sun damage and the effects of aging. The treatments supplement the natural collagen under the skin by placing collagen implants into the skin. A maintenance schedule of treatments is intended to provide an immediate, visible difference to the appearance of your skin and its contours.


Botox (Botulinum) Injections

Botulinum injections are used to decrease lines caused by facial expressions, including frown lines, forehead lines, crow's feet, and glabella lines. Botulinum is carefully injected into facial muscles to relax those that cause these lines. Dramatic improvement can be seen from several hours to one week following the injections, with results typically lasting three to six months.
