Advanced Laser Treatments
Educational Overview
Laser treatments utilize 'selective photothermolysis' to target melanin, hemoglobin, or water while sparing surrounding tissue. Our platform includes BroadBand Light (BBL) for pigmentation, Halo® Hybrid Fractional Laser for dual-depth resurfacing, and ProFractional™ for deep collagen remodeling and scar repair.
Who It May Be For
Indicated for significant dermal concerns: pigmentation correction (sunspots, melasma), vascular treatment (rosacea), deep textural repair (wrinkles, smoker's lines, scars), and skin tightening.
Potential Benefits
- Dramatic reduction in brown and red discoloration
- Significant smoothing of the skin’s surface
- Improved skin firmness and elasticity
- Long-lasting resurfacing results (3 to 5 years)
*Benefits are potential and not guaranteed; results may vary between individuals.
