LASER TREATMENTS
TYPES OF LASER TREATMENTS
Skin Resurfacing + Pigmentation Treatment + Hair Removal
Bye-bye hair. Hello smooth skin.
Ever get tired of removing stubborn hair on your own – underarms, legs, chin…? Especially if it grows back more coarse and even worse, darker? Laser hair removal not only helps diminish hair growth in treated areas, but if (or sometimes when) the hair grows back it’s often softer & lighter. Bye bye shaving & waxing, hello long-term hair removal with Gentle YAG® laser hair removal.
Smoother, younger looking skin.
Removal of unwanted hair – with minimal downtime & no anesthesia required.
Fast, effective treatments.
LASER SKIN RESURFACING
V-BEAM
When you have any skin condition that causes redness from broken or inflamed blood vessels, an effective laser treatment is a vascular laser called Vbeam*. With a specific ability to “take the red out”, Vbeam is used to reduce redness left after acne, for small spider veins on the face and body, for red stretch marks and for the control of redness and facial flushing from Rosacea.
PIGMENTED LASER TREATMENT
Commonly for people with Melasma and post inflammatory hyperpigmentation, which is the excess production of skin pigment melanin (dark patches of skin).
UNWANTED PIGMENT *WITH CLARITY II:
CLARITY II
Brillianty removes pigment, hair, and vascular lesions in all skin types.
Q: How does the treatment feel?
A: The discomfort level of treating pigmented lesions is generally mild and will vary depending on the area being treated. Your physician will work with you to ensure the procedure is comfortable.
Q: How long does the treatment take?
A: Depending on the size and area being treated, it could take anywhere from 5-15 minutes.
Q: How many treatments will I need?
A: Your physician will work with you to determine the number of treatments you will need, depending on the results you are looking to achieve.
Q: What will happen after the treatment?
A: You may see a slight darkening of the unwanted pigment up to ten days after treatment, which will fade as your body naturally removes the discoloration. Over the next several weeks, you will notice a lightening of the treated area.
REDNESS AND VEINS:

Q: How long before I see results?
A: Some veins may immediately disappear while others will take time to be broken down and removed by your body.
LASER HAIR REMOVAL
HAIR REMOVAL:
Q: How does the treatment feel?
A: Most patients experience a mild “snapping” on the skin as the laser is moved over the treatment area. Clarity has a specialized skin-cooling system that provides a more comfortable treatment.
Q: How long does the treatment take and how many will I need?
A: Depending on the size and area to be treated, it could take anywhere from 5-30 minutes. While you may see some hair reduction from your first treatment, hair grows in cycles, which requires several treatments to effectively remove unwanted hair growth. Most patients need at least five treatments, spaced 4-8 weeks apart, for optimal results.
Q: How do I prepare for a treatment?
A: Usually the area to be treated should be shaved first to ensure a more comfortable and effective treatment but your physician or practitioner will provide you with detailed instructions prior to your series of treatments.
