Skin
Rejuvenation
The
skin is the largest organ in our body and is made up of millions
of cells that protect us from the environment. Every day
thousands of cells die, flake off and are replaced by new cells
from beneath the skin surface. As we age, this process begins
to slow down. Our skin becomes dull, and uneven with fine
lines and other signs of sun-damage and aging begin to appear.
Your
Consultation
Our treatments begin with a consultation during which you will
meet with an aesthetician and evaluate your skin and the level
of skin care improvement you hope to achieve. Together you and
your aesthetician can evaluate your skin's specific clinical needs
and determine which rejuvenation treatment is best for you.
We
offer skin rejuvenation treatments only available through your
physician's office. These treatments may be used to treat fine
wrinkling, areas of dryness, uneven pigmentation and acne.
Light
Acid Peels
These treatments sometimes referred to as "lunch time" peels,
are quick, safe and effective at improving the texture of the skin
and evening out the skin tone. They also help reduce acne related
conditions by freeing impacted debris from the pores. After a day
or so, dependent on each individual response, a mild flaking of
the superficial dead skin cells may occur. For best results, these
peels should be done monthly. In some cases for oily/acne skin
repeated treatments weekly may be necessary. These peels require
little or no recovery time. We treat the skin with Lactic, Glycolic,
and Salicyclic.
These
peels can provide smoother, brighter-looking skin for people
who can't spare the time to recover. Peels are often an excellent
preparatory step prior to facial cosmetic surgery including facelift.
Your
aesthetician will determine the best chemical treatment for your
particular skin type.
Trichloroacetic
Acid (TCA) Peels
Trichloroacetic Acid (TCA) can be used in many concentrations,
but it is most commonly used for medium-depth peeling. Fine surface
wrinkles, superficial blemishes pigment problems, and acne scars
are commonly treated with TCA. The results of TCA peel are usually
more dramatic than the Light Acid Peels. Your aesthetician will
determine the right intensity for your skin.
Microdermabrasion
Another
contemporary mode of rejuvenating the skin is microdermabrasion. This
exfoliation process utilizes micro-crystal technology whereby tiny
crystals are vacuumed through a delicate hand piece and applied
directly to the skin. Precise angling and manipulation of the hand
piece against the surface of the skin results in a superficial
skin polishing. This technique aids in the removal of dead and
flaking skin cells and the development of fresh young skin cells
and collagen. The gentle abrasive process produces satisfying results
when applied to the face, neck, chest, and hands.
