At MedSpa 22 we offer laser skin resurfacing procedures that can reverse the effects of sun damage and environmental pollutants. After daily exposure to these elements, skin begins to wrinkle, develop pigmentation such as sun and age spots, and loses it’s bouncy texture and glow, causing your skin to appear tired and dull.

Skin Resurfacing (1540)
The Palomar Icon 1540 is the most advanced and customizable Fractional Laser skin resurfacing treatment system available, providing amazing results for treatment of pigmented and depressed acne scars, unsightly stretched or darkened surgical scars, and drastically reduce the appearance of stretch marks. The Palomar Icon 1540 provides innovative treatments which bridge the gap between the ablative and non-ablative laser techniques. It is also used to treat sun-damaged and aging skin using the Icon’s IPL system hand piece. While ablative laser treatments work mainly on the epidermis (surface skin cells) and the non-ablative treatments work solely on the dermal collagen (mid-layer of skin), fractional laser treatments work at both the epidermal and dermal layer of the skin.

WHAT IS LASER HAIR REMOVAL?
To achieve hair-free skin and address unwanted body hair, many patients turn to laser hair removal. This treatment uses the latest technologies and laser systems to remove unwanted hair on the face and body. The laser accomplishes this by passing into the skin and being absorbed by the hair follicles. The laser energy disables the hair follicle and leaves the surrounding skin unchanged and stunting the future growth of the follicle.
MOST COMMONLY TREATED AREAS/SYMPTOMS
Patients can use laser hair removal anywhere on the body. Common areas include:
- Face
- Underarm
- Bikini
- Neckline
- Legs
- Back
- Arms
- Chest
Laser hair removal can be performed without damaging the pores and structure of the skin. Most areas, such as the face and bikini line can be treated in under ten minutes, though larger areas require more time. Patients can avoid ingrown hairs, allergic reactions, and scarring by using this method as an alternative to other treatment options used at home.
IPL Photofacial Skin Resurfacing
IPL stands for Intense Pulsed Light. These are light based treatments that improve the appearance of multiple skin conditions, including Rosacea, flushing, sun damaged skin, age spots, skin texture, and photo aging. The treatment also improves mild acne scars, reduces large pores, corrects dark circles around the eyes, and reduces fine lines. It is very effective for hair removal and is also used to tighten skin which has lost some of its elasticity. This very exciting treatment involves little or no “down time” for recovery. You can resume normal activities immediately.
