 The Pixel CO2 laser by Alma Lasers is helping to shape the future of skin resurfacing. It is a fractional CO2 laser system that uses innovative micro-channel stamping technology to resurface the skin. The Pixel CO2 laser has multiple hand pieces that treat a variety of skin conditions such as fine lines, wrinkles, large pores, acne scars, stretch marks, and photo-damaged skin. The Pixel CO2 improves the tone and texture of the skin with very little downtime, and fast healing. After treatment, the skin is smoother, healthier, and younger-looking.

Non-surgical vaginal rejuvenation has become the preferred treatment for many women searching for a solution for stress urinary incontinence (SUI), and other vaginal issues such as vaginal dryness and the loss of vaginal elasticity. These symptoms are often brought on by childbirth, but may also be due to the aging of the vaginal tissue. FemiLift is an FDA-cleared laser treatment for vaginal resurfacing that can fix these concerns, and it produces successful long-lasting results.

 During laser hair removal, a laser emits a light that is absorbed by the pigment (melanin) in the hair. The light energy is converted to heat, which damages the tube-shaped sacs within the skin (hair follicles) that produce hairs. This damage inhibits or delays future hair growth. Only hairs in the Anagen or “active” growth phase will be targeted which is why several treatments are required for desired results. Hair may take up to two weeks to purge or fall out. You will want to avoid heat to the treated area for 24 hours. You may shave between treatments but not wax or pluck, doing so will remove the lasers target. The average number of treatments is 5-8 unless you are on maintenance treatments due to hormone imbalance i.e. PCOS, menopause, hormone replacement therapy and genetics etc. 

Lasers have become the gold standard treatment for tattoo removal because they offer a bloodless, low risk, effective alternative with minimal side effects. Our Certified Laser Specialists use the latest state of the art equipment and techniques offered in the laser tattoo removal industry. The Quanta Q-Plus C is the only FDA approved laser on the market that offers three distinct wavelengths, therefore, it is the only laser that can successfully remove a full spectrum of color. Green, red, blue and black pigments can be removed faster, effectively and safely. The Quanta Q-Plus series provides much higher performances when compared to other Q switched lasers currently on the market. The Q-Plus C is attracted to the ink within the tissue and it then solidifies the ink and breaks it up into smaller pieces so your lymphatic system can digest it, accelerating the natural process. Each procedure is done within our office in a series of visits. Depending on the density of the tattoo, age of the tattoo and your skin, will determine the number of treatments that will be needed for a successful outcome. Safe, effective, quick, and easy, we ensure the highest standard of treatment with minimal risk of scarring providing the absolute gold standard and best technology on the market.

IPL stands for Intense Pulsed Light. This treatment uses the power of broadband light to minimize the appearance of age spots, sun spots, acne scars, rosacea, and more. A handheld device will be passed over the target area, delivering pulses of intense light to penetrate the layers of the skin. Most patients describe experiencing a fast, pinching sensation during treatment, with minimal discomfort. After treatment you can expect to see the targeted areas darken where the sun or skin damage is, almost darkening to the point of areas resembling the appearance of coffee grounds. Depending on the area being treated on the body these darkened spots can last 1-2 weeks on the face, neck and hands, and 3-4 weeks on the rest of the body. Over time, patients are left with a smoother skin tone, healthier complexion, and less visible sun damage.
