Laser Hair Removal

Hair removal is a constant worry for many men and women alike. For patients who are sick of the hassle associated with shaving, waxing and other temporary hair removal techniques, ALMA laser hair removal may be the solution for you. Laser hair removal exposes specific areas of the body to beams of laser light that disable active hair follicles and delay or prevent re-growth.

ALMA Laser hair removal is ideal for patients with dark hair and light skin, although nearly anyone with unwanted facial or body hair can benefit from this procedure. This procedure can be performed on the lip, chin, neck, back, arms, legs, bikini area and more.

After ALMA laser hair removal, patients may experience redness, puffiness and sunburn sensations for the first few days. You may return to work and other regular activities as soon as you feel comfortable. Three to seven days after treatment, patients may notice what appears to be a re-growth of hair, but is actually a shedding of the treated hair, which will fall out and not grow back.

Since hairs grow at different times, multiple treatments will be needed for all patients at intervals of four to six weeks.

AFT Photo Rejuvenation

A non-surgical, non-invasive cosmetic procedure, AFT technology uses gentle pulses of light to safely and effectively eliminate years of sun damage, redness and brown pigmentation, literally "turning back the clock." This treatment works to rejuvenate the skin by enhancing dull or gray complexions as well as smoothing out uneven pigmentation, reducing the appearance of large pores and even improving symptoms of Rosacea-a skin disorder characterized by severe redness.

How AFT Pulsed Light Technology Works

AFT photo rejuvenation uses a series of uniquely shaped light pulses that gently penetrate the top layers of the skin to break up any lesions or vessels, allowing the body to undergo its natural healing process. Because the treatment was developed to specifically heat the intended target spot, the surrounding areas won't experience any damage or discomfort. Skin will appear even-toned, healthy, and youthful.

What to Expect

Each AFT photorejuvenation session lasts anywhere from 15 to 30 minutes.The light pulses are then delivered, improving the look and texture of the treated area. Once the process is complete, the cooling gel is removed and the skin is cleansed.

The procedure requires no anesthesia. Most patients require three AFT treatment sessions for maximum results. Follow-up sessions may also be recommended for maintenance.

Downtime and Side Effects

Since AFT pulsed light technology treatments are less invasive than other procedures, such as chemical peels or deep laser resurfacing, there is no downtime and patients may resume daily activities immediately.

Side effects are extremely rare. After a treatment, skin may appear red and pigmented spots may look darker. It is important to limit sun exposure for several weeks prior to and after the procedure for best results.

Pixel Laser Skin Resurfacing

Pixel Laser Resurfacing WoodburyTreatment with the Pixel laser improves skin quality and texture, reduces fine lines and wrinkles, and stimulates collagen production for a more youthful appearance that's long-lasting. The Pixel treatment can be performed on the face, neck and chest.

The FDA-approved Pixel laser combines the effectiveness of an ablative laser (a laser that removes layers of skin) with the comfort, reduced downtime and lower risk of side effects of a non-ablative laser. How does it do this? The Pixel laser uses fractional resurfacing technology, where the laser beam is split into tiny "pixels" of light. The light converts to heat when it touches the skin, creating a series of micro-injuries that stimulate healing and collagen remodeling while leaving the surrounding tissue intact. The highly accurate and adjustable Pixel laser is able to target the desired treatment area at a precise depth, location and strength.

Many patients notice an improvement in their skin after the first Pixel treatment, with results continuing to improve over the course of several sessions.

Complete Rejuvenation

Complete Rejuvenation WoodburyThe Complete Rejuvenation is a procedure that reveals brighter, younger and healthier looking skin in just 90 days. The Complete Rejuvenation reduces fine lines, wrinkles, acne scarring, capillaries and discolorations on the skin.

This treatment uses two types of laser technologies: an AFT (photofacial) and a Pixel laser. These two technologies work on different skin concerns. The AFT works on pigmentation such as freckles, capillaries and age spots; and the Pixel works on lines, wrinkles, scaring and collagen remodeling. They work together resulting in a tightening effect.

Vascular Treatment

AFT is a non-invasive treatment using filtered light frequencies to target the pigment in hemoglobin, causing the small vessels to constrict and disappear. Vessels will fade gradually within 10 to 14 days following treatment. AFT is ideal for treating:

  • Facial Redness
  • Broken Capillaries
  • Spider Veins
  • Telangiectasias
  • Cherry Angiomas
  • Rosacea

Clients experience little discomfort and no downtime or disruptions to their normal activities.  Treatment time varies, depending on the size of the area requiring treatment.
