How does the Photo Facial treatment work?

The laser is applied in a series of pulses over the treatment area. The laser beam penetrates through the skin and is absorbed by the abnormally dilated vessels or pigmentation. The heat causes damage to the vessel or lesion, and the body begins its natural healing process. The lesion will darken before it flakes off or the body absorbs it. Treatment can be given as frequently as every four weeks.

How many treatments will I need?

For optimal results, a series of treatments are recommended, talk to your Esthetician.  Follow-up treatments may be desired once a year to maintain results.

What is a treatment like?

Treatments may vary from 15 to 45 minutes depending on the size of the area to be treated. When the laser is delivered, the sensation is similar to a snap of a rubber band. After treatment a sunscreen is applied. Pain is minimal.

Are there any possible side effects of facial laser treatments?

Side effects are rare. Immediately following treatment, the skin may appear flushed; brown pigmented spots may appear darker; and capillaries may be more visible. Temporary swelling and/or bruising can occur.

What improvement will I see?

Expect to see a gradual decrease in redness, broken capillaries, flushing, irregular pigmentation, pore size, and fine lines. After each treatment, the skin will feel smoother and appear to have a more even tone.
