FRAXEL LASER SKIN RESURFACING www.fraxel.com:  Uses laser energy to create thousands of microscopic columns of heat beneath the surface of the skin which cause damage to the epidermis in order to promote new collagen and elastin production.  Sundamage can also be irradicated through the use of this Laser as well.

Q-SWITCH LASER:  The Q-Switch Laser is intended for the treatment of small numbers of pigmented lesions (sun spots) and tattoo removal.  This process is able to remove tattoos and sun damage without scarring or long term damage to the skin.

SILK PEEL DERMALINFUSION  www.silkpeel.com: The silkpeel treatment is an advanced microdermabrasion which uses a diamond tip, suction, and infusion of solution to gently and evenly exfoliate the skin, lift and remove oils, dirt, and dead skin cells, and treat the skin’s specific need. (ie. Salicylic Acid solution for acne prone skin, Vitamin C solution for aging skin, etc.). You will notice smooth, fresh, and clearer skin after a series of treatments with no downtime.

CHEMICAL PEELS  www.skinmedica.com:  Chemical peels use specific combiniations of various acids (salicylic acids, lactic acids, glycolic acids, alpha-hydroxy acids, beta-hydroxy acids, citric acids) to exfoliate the surface of the skin, removing the excess oil, dirt, and dead skin cells that cause the clogging of pores, which may also lead to acne.  Chemical peels also help lighten the unwanted appearance of sun damage.

SKIN TX  www.vivierpharma.com: The Skin TX hyperpigmentation program is an all inclusive skin restoration system indicated to treat hyperpigmentation of the skin such as melasma, chloasma (pregnancy mask), age spots, liver spots, freckles or hyperpigmentation that may occur as a result of scarring, sun exposure, pregnancy or the use of oral contraceptives. Your health care practitioner may also  recommend this program after other Laser procedures in order to further improve the overall goal of these treatments.
