Chemical Peels, Laser Skin Care, Intense Pulsed Light

For many years, plastic surgeons were frustrated by their search for rejuvenation procedures to correct sun dam-age and aging skin. While facelift surgery provided the answer for jowls and saggy skin, poor solutions remained for a patient with significant facial aging due to sun dam-age. Specifically, the leather-like criss-cross skin wrinkling and severe smoker’s lines around the lips could not be addressed by even the most advanced lifting techniques. Other skin problems such as irregular pigmentation, bronzing of the skin, age spots, pre-cancers, chronically red, irritated areas, and fine wrinkles likewise were not corrected by surgery.

There is progressive thinning of the skin due to the loss of collagen, micro-scarring from repetitive movement of facial muscles, and irregular pigmentation from sun expo-sure. Once the skin becomes etched and pigmented, there must be a change in the actual skin itself to correct these problems.

Because all of these textural problems persist despite facial surgery, cosmetic surgeons developed various skin rejuvenation procedures such as dermabrasion, chemical peels, and laser resurfacing. All of these modalities, and their variations such as CO2, erbium, fractional, non-ablative laser treatments, IPL, Trichloracetic Acid (TCA), Salicylic Acid, Glycolic Acid, and LHE, can help restore the radiant skin of your youth and create lasting beauty for life.

Facials are a treatment for the face, neck and chest meant to cleanse, firm, smooth and hydrate the skin as well as address and correct skin concerns and disease such as acne. Many people swear by facials not only as a way to feel relaxed and pampered, but also as a means for making their skin healthier. According to data collected by the International Spa Association, facials are one of most popular spa treatments and with new advancements in techniques and products, facial treatments are rapidly growing in popularity. Each person who gets a facial has his or her own reasons for doing so, including:

• Deeply clean the skin and pores
• Improve skin that is either too dry or too oily
• Rejuvenate skin that has begun to look old or wrinkled
• Relax and de-stress
• Smooth and correct texture
• Address acne scarring and discoloration
• Detox the skin

Microneelding
Also known as Collagen Induction Therapy, microneedling is the ultimate anti-aging treatment.
