Lasers & Tightening

Get rid of unwanted hair for good. 

Unwanted hair is a common concern, especially in areas such as legs, armpits, upper lip, chin and bikini line. Laser hair removal is a procedure that uses a focused beam of light to reduce hair growth, lessening the need for manual removal with razors, waxing, or creams. The laser works by targeting the pigment in your hair follicles. The light energy is absorbed and converted to heat, effectively putting those hair follicles to sleep and minimizing hair growth over time.

Key Benefits of Laser Hair Removal 

  • Stop the Growth of Unwanted Hair
    Significantly reduce the growth of hair in precisely targeted areas.
  • Enjoy Long-Lasting Results
    Use a method that produces long-term effects, decreasing the need for frequent hair removal.
  • Boost Your Quality of Life
    Streamline your body so you can more easily enjoy everyday activities.

For optimal effectiveness, your provider should have access to an extensive array of laser technologies, such as alexandrite, diode, and Nd: YAG. This variety enables safe and personalized treatments for different hair types, colors, and skin tones.

Recapture a more youthful look and feel. 

“Menopause Makeover” is a catch-all term for a procedure or set of procedures that target areas of the body that change during the time of life when women undergo menopause, typically in their 40s or 50s.

Menopause significantly impacts the entire body composition such as an increase in abdominal fat and a decrease in muscle mass, as well as skin changes like thinning and decreased elasticity. The hormonal changes triggered by this natural process cause collagen loss, softening of cartilage, and weakening of bones, leading to issues such as drooping brows, lax eyelids, a less defined jawline, and deep-set wrinkles. Body shape may also change, particularly in areas such as the breasts and abdomen.

A range of procedures may be part of a treatment plan for issues related to facial appearance, including blepharoplasty (eyelid lift), chin implant, rhinoplasty (nose job), facelift, and neck lift. Procedures that address areas beyond the face include a breast lift, tummy tuck, or liposuction.

Key Benefits of Menopause Makeover

  • Rejuvenate your facial appearance
    Combats effects of hormonal changes that can lead to drooping or sagging skin in the face and neck.
  • Optimize your body contours
    Revitalize areas of the body, such as the breasts or abdomen, that have lost shape and definition.
  • Boost your self-confidence
    Increase your self-esteem following a significant stage in life.

During your consultation, ask about non-surgical options for rejuvenating your facial appearance. Though these are more temporary solutions, skin tightening treatments, skin resurfacing treatments and Botox® (as well as other injectables) can provide improvements, especially when the effects of aging are less pronounced.

Get your glow back 

Skin resurfacing and smoothing treatments encompass a range of non-surgical procedures that are designed to enhance the appearance of your skin. These treatments target a range of concerns, including fine lines and wrinkles, tone and texture, age spots and scars, pigmentation issues, and lack of elasticity in the skin. The common thread is helping you achieve a refreshed and revitalized look.

Key Benefits of Skin Resurfacing & Smoothing Treatments

  • Rejuvenate Your Skin
    Remove old skin and promote new growth for a younger, more refreshed appearance.
  • Reduce Hyperpigmentation and Target Discoloration
    Address discoloration and age spots to reveal more even skin tone.
  • Improve Uneven Skin Texture
    Reduce the appearance of fine lines, scars, and enhance overall skin texture.

With any aesthetic treatment, it’s always best to be specific when describing your goals, such as “I want to reduce wrinkles around my eyes”, “Smooth my skin texture”, “Even out my skin tone”, or “Improve my scarring or dark spots.” This can help tailor the treatment plan and make sure you walk away satisfied. That said, if you’re not sure exactly what you want and are open to guidance, general statements like “I want to look younger” are perfectly fine.

Gently rejuvenate your face 

Skin tightening treatments refer to a range of procedures that aim to firm, lift and rejuvenate the face without surgery. They’re a popular option for those who want to enhance their appearance and address signs of aging but prefer a non-invasive approach. The results won’t be as dramatic as they would with a facelift, but these gentler procedures can be effective for Improving the skin tone and dealing with mild skin laxity, especially in areas such as the lower face and neck.

Key Benefits of Skin Tightening Treatments

  • Tighten Skin Without Surgery
    Improve mild to moderate skin laxity on the face, neck, or body without surgery or scars.
  • Look Refreshed with Minimal Downtime
    Non-invasive treatments provide a “lifting” effect and can reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
  • Improve Skin Texture and Tone
    Stimulate collagen and elastin to restore a firmer, smoother, and more youthful appearance.

The results of non-invasive skin tightening treatments are never as dramatic or long-lasting as surgical facelifts, but many people find them to be a good alternative in part because of the minimal downtime. Recovery from these procedures is usually minimal and has little impact on your schedule, unlike surgical procedures that may require prolonged downtime.

Fade streaks and reveal smoother skin  

Stretch marks, also known as striae distensae, are narrow streaks or lines that appear on the skin’s surface due to rapid stretching. This stretching can rupture the collagen and elastin fibers that support our skin, resulting in an inconsistent skin texture and striated appearance as healing occurs.

Stretch marks, which are more prevalent in women, typically appear on the lower abdomen, back or flanks, buttocks, thighs, or breasts. Though common, their presence can cause significant emotional distress, affecting self-image and self-confidence. While treatments have not been successful in removing them entirely, there are effective novel therapies that can make these streaks less visible.

Key Benefits of Stretch Mark Treatments

  • Improve the Appearance of Your Skin
    Minimize stretch mark streaks on areas like the back, flanks and thighs, helping to optimize your body’s complexion.
  • Enhance Skin Texture
    Bring consistency to your skin by treating areas where it is striated or elevated.
  • Boost Self-Confidence
    Minimize marks that can affect your body image and lessen your comfort in engaging in everyday activities.

Despite advancements in various therapies, treating stretch marks remains challenging. This difficulty stems from the near-permanence of stretch marks, intricate processes involved in skin healing, diversity in skin types, and individual reactions to treatments. While the appearance of stretch marks can improve, you should not expect the skin to completely regain its original texture and color.
