Laser Hair Removal
A recent scientific advance in medical laser technology gives us a gentler, safer and faster solution to the problem of unwanted hair. It is called the TKS (Thermokinetic Selectivity), and it is only available in the type of laser used at our facility. In as little as three to five treatments, our laser removes unwanted hair from any area. At Medical Laser Solutions, we are pleased to offer the most recent advance in laser treatment for anyone desiring a way to remove unwanted hair.
Laser therapy is a thoroughly tested, clinically-proven method of hair removal. Treatment is relatively quick, and removes unwanted body hair without damaging the surrounding skin. The laser works by emitting a gentle beam of energy that passes through the skin to the hair follicle. The energy is then transformed into heat, which damages the hair follicle. TKS™ makes it possible for laser energy to “select” only hair follicles, while sparing the surrounding skin from damage.
Because hair grows in cycles, you will need 5 treatments on average. The laser will disable follicles that are actively producing hair at the time of treatment. At any time, some hair follicles are dormant. Repeat sessions will treat these follicles when they re-enter the growth phase. This brings the cosmetic results you want with the clinical results you need.
Men and women who want to rediscover the ease, beauty and confidence of hair-free skin can now have the attractive appearance they’ve always desired.
If you are concerned about unwanted hair, you are probably a good candidate for hair removal with the Cynsoure laser.
Laser Facial
LaserFacial is a comfortable, non-ablative, non-invasive treatment that can reduce the appearance of visible facial vessels, diffuse redness, acne scars, rosacea, sun damage, brown spots, and large pores. It has been FDA cleared to reduce fine wrinkles by warming the upper dermis of the skin, improving the appearance of your skin. The result is a healthy looking and vibrant appearance. LaserFacial is a comfortable form of skin therapy. Typically the client describes the treatment as a gentle warming of the surface. This means you will be able to see subtle, yet consistent results after treatment, without unwanted side effects such as bruising or excessive skin irritation. The treatment can be performed in a relaxed, comfortable manner without the use of local anesthesia. The average treatment takes forty-five minutes to an hour.
Telangiectasias, or facial vessels, are the dilated capillaries that commonly appear on the surface of the face and in areas around the nose, cheeks and above the neckline. Capillaries are tiny blood vessels that are present throughout the body. Prolonged sun exposure, aging, trauma, and other factors can cause capillaries to become dilated and visible. There is also a hereditary factor in developing telangiectasias. LaserFacial therapy will help your appearance by treating any visible traces of these unsightly veins. Diffuse redness is a general appearance of facial redness, such as rosy cheeks. As with facial telangiectasia, this condition is a result of dilated capillaries, however, the appearance is more of a general redness rather than discrete well-defined vessels. The most commonly affected areas are the nose, forehead, and cheeks. Diffuse redness is often associated with a condition called rosacea that can be hereditary. LaserFacial therapy will help your appearance by gently treating and reducing this condition. We also include the treatment of pigmented lesions and brown spots with this service.
The treatment results are often subtle. On average you may require 6 treatments in order to achieve the results you are looking for. Every patient's condition and needs vary. Some may require more treatments. If you are over 30 years old and enjoy an active lifestyle, your skin is probably showing sings of sun damage. If so, you are a candidate for LaserFacial.
Laser Treatment of Spider Veins of the Face and Legs
Spider veins on the face and legs bother millions of people. Spider veins (or telangiectasias) are red, bluish, or purple veins that can result from sun exposure, use of oral contraception, hormone therapy, the aging process, or heredity.
Advanced laser technology offers an effective treatment for facial and spider veins. With a beam of light, the laser delivers a prescribed dose of energy to the spider veins. The laser “selectively” coagulates the problem veins while sparing the surrounding areas. After the treatment, there is no down time, and the vessels will slowly and naturally disappear. Some spider veins will actually disappear immediately, and some will take up to six weeks to resolve. Typically only one or two treatments are needed.
