ResurFX

A FDA-APPROVED PHOTO-FRACTIONAL LASER 

The ResurFX™ fractional laser is a state-of-the-art, non-ablative, skin resurfacing technology. ResurFX™ fractional laser stimulates the production of new collagen and elastic fibers in the deeper layers of the skin. Stimulating new collagen production is the key to a more radiant, youthful looking skin.

 

The ResurFX™ technology enables us to achieve excellent clinical results over a sequence of treatments while keeping your comfort maximal and downtime minimal.

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) Laser 

A FDA-APPROVED PHOTOREJUVENATION THERAPY

Intense Pulsed Light Therapy | IntechOpen

Our IPL laser with Optimal Pulse Technology (OPT™) enables the light pulses penetrate the tissue and create heat, targeting the skin imperfection in a controlled manner. The body’s natural process then removes the treated tissue, while collagen and elastic fiber stimulation occurs, resulting in a visible improvement in skin tone and overall appearance.

 

The IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) technology allows treatment of pigmentation and vascular imperfections, while improving overall skin appearance.

Photo-Activated Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) via

TriFX™ Radiofrequency Microneedling & SKINPEN® Microneedling

SKINPEN® Microneedling

Each of our bodies has innate processes that react to injury by producing new cells and collagen to heal the damage. The activated PRP is delivered into the skin through the FDA-approved SkinPen® which is a finely-tuned micro-needling pen.

 

 

This procedure initiates your natural healing process by creating hundreds of temporary micro-channels in the skin for a PRP penetration. These “fractionated” micro-channels are created to achieve results without the use of thermal energy or chemicals applied to the skin.

TriFX™ Radiofrequency-Assisted Microneedling

Unlike other microneedling technologies in the market,  TriFX™ does not use needles but rather ultra-thin electrodes that thermally ablate the outer surface of the skin to reach the deep dermis. electrodes create micro-channels via RF energy to facilitate an effective PRP delivery and regenerate younger and smoother looking skin.

The RF energy heats the underlying layers of skin, causing constriction and tightening of the skin, as well as the stimulation of collagen and elastin production. Because the RF energy is delivered so deeply while works in conjunction with photo-activated PRP, it can produce faster results that are more dramatic.

 Chemical Peels

A chemical peel is a procedure in which a chemical solution is applied to the skin to remove the top layers. The skin that grows back is smoother. Chemical peels are used to treat wrinkles, discolored skin, acne scars and many more. They can be done alone or combined with other cosmetic procedures. We usually use medical grade Salicylic Acid Peel, VI Peel, and SkinMedica Peels.
