When considering any medical procedure, you should rest assured that you are under the care of trained and experienced medical professionals. Perhaps you've seen or heard commercials from hair removal chains offering treatments "under the supervision" of a board certified doctor. BE CAREFUL! Some of these doctors are only in a few hours week to do administrative work and they do not do any laser procedures. Many of the providers performing the procedures are trained in a corporate setting for a week or two. Equally important, the doctor is often not in the office regularly to assist and supervise them.

Safe and successful laser treatment is the result of having medical professionals with years of experience in medicine and the level of understanding of the human body and its physiology to perform these procedures.

So, for the safety and greatest effectiveness of your aesthetic treatments, turn to medical professionals with the best equipment available in laser medicine. Your safety, comfort and results are our first priority.

The Apogee Elite Laser by Cynosure, Inc. differentiates itself from other lasers in two significant ways.      

First, it is the first and only laser that offers two different wavelengths, the high powered Alexandrite and the Nd:YAG. What does that mean for you? Both lasers have proven valuable to the general practice of laser hair removal. Depending on your skin type and whether you are tanned, the right choice of laser leads to optimal hair removal, with minimal side effects and no down time.      

The Alexandrite laser is used to treat lighter skin types, as well as treating pigmented lesions. The Nd:Yag is the choice of treatment for darker skin types and tanned skin, which most lasers on the market cannot treat. The Yag mode also treats pseudofolliculitis barbae (beard bumps), and is employed for the treatment of facial telangiectasias (fine facial vessels) and leg veins, and photo-aging including fine lines, age spots, and sun damage.

Second, we have the number one cooling system available. What does this mean to you? You will have the most comfortable laser treatment available! Nobody wants to be in pain, even to get the desired results of ridding unwanted hair, veins, and skin spots. No other laser company can offer the same level of comfort. Our "SmartCool" cooling system provides cold air to the site to -4 degrees Celsius before, during, and after treatment with no side effects. If other lasers provide any cooling at all, either a contact cooling system is used or a chemical is applied to the skin for cooling. In both cases, the side effects are greater, and the results are less effective, causing you to be significantly more uncomfortable. Cold air has no side effects and it provides the greatest comfort. No other company can compete with that. So when you are shopping for any laser treatment, always make sure you are "comparing apples to apples." Find out if the laser facility you choose offers both wavelengths for your greatest safety and effectiveness, and provides you with the ultimate in comfort.
