Laser treatments
Laser treatments use concentrated beams of light energy to target specific chromophores (light-absorbing molecules) in the skin.
Different lasers emit different wavelengths of light, allowing them to target various skin concerns, such as hair follicles, blood vessels, pigment, and even water in the skin.
The laser energy is converted into heat, which selectively damages the targeted tissue while leaving surrounding tissues relatively unharmed.
Laser treatments are versatile and can address a wide range of concerns, from hair removal and vascular lesions to skin resurfacing and acne treatment.
Suitability depends on factors like skin type, hair color (for hair removal), and the specific condition being treated. It's crucial to consult with a qualified practitioner to determine if laser treatment is right for you.
Permanent hair reduction
Reduced appearance of vascular lesions
Improved skin tone and texture
Acne reduction
Laser Services:
Thread Vein Removal (also known as spider veins or telangiectasia)
Lasers target the hemoglobin (the red pigment in blood) within the thread veins.
The laser energy is absorbed by the hemoglobin, causing the blood vessels to heat up and coagulate.
Over time, the treated veins are naturally absorbed by the body, resulting in a reduced appearance or complete disappearance.
Laser Hair Removal
Lasers target the melanin (the pigment in hair follicles).
The laser energy is absorbed by the melanin, damaging the hair follicle and inhibiting future hair growth.
Multiple treatments are necessary to target hair in different growth cycles, leading to significant and long-lasting hair reduction.
Acne
Certain lasers can target the bacteria (P. acnes) that contribute to acne breakouts, as well as reduce inflammation and oil production.
The laser light can also stimulate collagen production, which can help improve the appearance of acne scars.
Red Cherry Angioma Removal
Cherry angiomas are benign growths of blood vessels.
Lasers target the hemoglobin within these blood vessels, similar to thread vein removal.
The laser energy heats up the blood vessels, causing them to coagulate and eventually fade away.
The level of discomfort during laser treatment varies depending on the type of laser, the area being treated, and individual pain tolerance. Many patients describe the sensation as a snapping rubber band against the skin.
Some lasers have built-in cooling mechanisms to minimize discomfort. Topical numbing cream can also be applied before the treatment to further reduce any potential pain.
The number of laser treatments required depends on the specific condition being treated. For laser hair removal, typically 6-8 sessions are recommended, spaced several weeks apart, to target hair in different growth cycles.
For vascular lesions or skin rejuvenation, the number of sessions can vary depending on the severity of the condition. Your practitioner will develop a personalized treatment plan during your consultation.
The results of laser treatment vary depending on the specific treatment. For laser hair removal, the results are considered long-lasting or permanent hair reduction, meaning a significant decrease in hair growth.
Some fine hairs may still grow back over time, requiring occasional maintenance treatments. For vascular lesions and other skin concerns, the results can be long-lasting, but new lesions may develop over time due to factors like sun exposure or aging.
