The
Laser Hair Removal Procedure
Laser hair removal is performed in a physician's
office or laser hair treatment facility. Depending
upon the extent of the treatment, time in treatment
ranges from one hour to several hours. Keep in mind
that multiple sessions may be necessary.
A numbing lotion will first be applied to the
targeted area. During the procedure, a laser is used
to dispense a fine intense beam of heated light that
removes the hair follicles, but preserves the skin
in the surrounding area. Unlike electrolysis, which
requires the removal of each hair follicle, the
laser scans a wide area of the body in the removal
process.
Aftercare
Patients return home immediately following the
treatment. Normal activities can be resumed
immediately; however, exercise, Jacuzzi use, and sun
tanning are not recommended for at least 24 hours.
No waxing or depilatory creams can be used after
laser hair removal.

Laser Spot Removal
Your face, hands and arms are the first parts of the body to
show signs of aging because they receive so much exposure. Sunlight, the
elements and the natural aging process all contribute to the development
of dark spots and freckles. Age spots and freckles are forms of
pigmented lesions. They are caused by excess production of melanin in
the skin. Melanocytes are the cells that manufacture melanin (the dark
pigment in skin). Most of us have some form of pigmented lesion.
While spots and
freckles may not be medical emergencies,
many of our patients like to have them
removed. Fortunately, our advanced medical
lasers enable us to remove these
distractions safely, easily and effectively.

Laser Tattoo Removal
Unfortunately, we have all made decisions we now
regret. Technology now exists called Q-Switch Nd YAG
lasers that can obliterate tattoo pigment under the
surface of the skin. Ink is then cleared by the
body’s lymphatic system. While tattoo removal is a
safe and effective procedure, it is impossible to
predict the number of treatments that an individual
tattoo will require to resolve.

Erbium Laser
Resurfacing
Erbium laser resurfacing is
designed to remove superficial and moderately deep
lines and wrinkles on the face hands, neck, or
chest. One of the benefits of erbium laser
resurfacing is minimal burning of surrounding
tissue. This laser causes minimal side effects, such
as swelling, bruising and redness.
What Can Be
Expected During Laser Resurfacing?
Erbium
laser resurfacing is
performed on an outpatient basis, using local
anesthesia (pain relief at the site of the
procedure).
Wrinkles around the eyes, mouth
or forehead may be treated individually, or a
full-face laserabrasion may be performed. |

SKINCLEAR®
Q-Switched
Nd:YAG Laser
Tattoo Removal
During the process of tattooing,
tattoo pigment ("ink") is driven into the skin and
deposited within the skin's dermal layer. Left
untouched, the majority of the entrapped pigment
will remain intact indefinitely. SkinClear
selectively targets and destroys tattoo pigments
while leaving surrounding tissues unharmed and
intact. The body then eliminates the resulting
smaller tattoo ink particles via the lymphatic
system.
Pigmented Lesions
A vast majority of individuals
have some type of pigmented lesions. Some are born
with prominent pigmented lesions, birthmarks,
café-au-lait spots, or freckles, which can be
cosmetically troublesome if on the face, neck or
other visible area. Other lesions develop over time.
Age spots (solar lentigines) can be cosmetically
bothersome. Most adults develop them over years of
sun exposure. Women also acquire unwanted pigmented
lesions due to hormonal changes. |
