Pearl Laser Resurfacing

Baby, it's cold outside......so it's time for some anti aging! lol Now that the weather is less appealing (well, depending on the day) this is the best time of year to safely get those laser treatments to take off summer damage.




This treatment is for the active, sun bunny who can't afford the social downtime of traditional anti aging treatments. You know, the less invasive ones that have to be done monthly to see a benefit from. They work, but not everyone has time for that.


Pearl is the perfect treatment option for turning that clock back. It improves sun spots, tone and texture dramatically! Click on the link below for more before and afters:



More Specifics:

Laser resurfacing has long been the gold standard treatment for discoloration (uneven pigmentation) and skin texture. CO2 laser resurfacing yielded excellent improvement but its popularity was hampered to a large extent by the long recovery time and the high complication rate.

Fractional laser resurfacing was developed in the early to mid 2000s to minimize the down time and the risks involved with other lasers of this caliber. One treatment will significantly improve the appearance of uneven pigmentation, fine lines, skin texture and overall health of your skin.

The Pearl laser was developed specifically to address this short coming of non-ablative fractional laser. As the whole surface of the skin is resurfaced, the result is far superior to that achieved by any non-ablative fractional device, such as fractional lasers alone and it is much more cost and time effective.

Spooky sun damage!




Summer is technically over, so I wanted to access the damage. I "practice safe sun", but I am active, so the sun still gets me! Just thought you guys would enjoy. It's also a good time of year for this, since it is almost Halloween!!!

I took this photo at work. We have a Reveal Imager. It's a special camera that can photograph your sun damage among other things. You can see all of the melanin present in the skin, but the patches of it are what we are looking for here. That is the sun damage that I can lift with lasers or chemicals, to return my face to being one uniform color. You can even see my blackheads if you look really close (tip of the nose). I generally start my consultations with this flattering photo and decide what we should do based on what we see.
