Spring has sprung and while some of you are spring-cleaning your homes, many of you are coming into our Atlanta plastic surgery and skin renewal practice to spring-clean your skin, too! The dry winter weather, stress or sun damage could be to blame but as seen on The Doctors, 3 non-invasive facial rejuvenation procedures can clear the cobwebs, and buff and shine your face for a fresh, spring look.
Laser The Cobwebs (Spider Veins) Away
Facial spider veins aren’t painful but they certainly are embarrassing. Damage from the sun can cause the tiny facial blood vessels to dilate, as can aging. Spider veins can appear on any skin type but they tend to be more visible on fair-complected people. Covering them with makeup works for a few hours, but longer-term results can be gained over your lunch break with little or no downtime. Both the IPL (photo-facial) and the Alexandrite/YAG laser can be used to be treat most skin types, as they target the red blood cells, causing the vessels to collapse, shrink and in most cases, disappear. If more appear later on (a common occurrence), another treatment can zap them away!
Buff Away Dead Skin
We have lots of great chemical peels to refresh the skin: Skin Medica's Vitalize Peel, for instance. This peel addresses several skin conditions, such as hyperpigmentation, melasma and sun damage. After only one treatment you’ll see visible improvement. After a series, you’ll see more significant results. Little or no downtime is the norm with the Vitalize Peel, so come in during lunch for your peel!
Need some skin tightening? Known as “the lift without a knife,” Refirme lasering results in immediate lifting and firming of facial skin through a combination of radiofrequency waves with infrared light. The Refirme laser has become a favorite of our Atlanta patients who want tighter and firmer skin on the spot, without visible post-treatment marks.
The Matrix IR is a diode laser for facial lines. By heating up the deeper layers of your skin (while protecting your surface skin), it signals collagen to rebuild. It’s great for nasolabial folds, marionette lines, crow’s feet, forehead lines and those little wrinkles around the eyes. Since its energy is fractionated, more intense light energy can be placed, which means it’s highly effective.
Time To Add Some Shine
The last and final step of the spring-cleaning facial rejuvenation is laser skin rejuvenation with our eMatrix (fractionated RF) Laser. This laser treats superficial skin lesions, acne scarring and wrinkles while improving both the texture and tone of your skin. The 3 settings allow for superficial, mid-level and deep skin correction, so it’s easy to tailor for your specific needs. A series of treatments can reveal the beauty and shine that you love!
You can have any of these procedures done during lunch and return to work, looking refreshed and ready for spring!
To your health & beauty,
