What does laserFACIAL do?
LaserFACIAL is a non-ablative procedure that can reduce visible facial vessels,
diffuse redness, acne scars, Rosacea, sun damage, and large pores. It has been
FDA cleared to reduce wrinkles by gently warming the upper dermis,
improving the apperance of your skin. The result is a healthy looking and
vibrant appearance.

The LaserFACIAL difference?
The LaserFACIAL procedure utilizes laser technology that can safely,
discretely and effectively treat small targets. Unlike many other treatment
methods, LaserFACIAL is a comfortable, non-ablative form of skin therapy.
This means you will be able to see subtle yet consistent results after each
treatment, without unwantd side effects such as bruising or excessive skin
irritation. Your therapy can be performed in a relaxed, comfortable manner
without the use of general or local anesthesia, gel or cream.

What areas can be treated?
Unlike many other procedures available today, with LaserFACIAL skin
therapy, your physician can safely treat all areas. The most common is facial,
neck and chest.

What are facial vessels, telangiecstasia, and diffused redness?
Telangiectasia, or facial vessels, are dilated capillaries that commonly appear
on the surface of the face and in areas around the nose, cheeks and above the
neckline. Capillaries are tiny blood vessels that are present throughout the
body. Prolonged sun exposure, aging, trauma and other factors can cause
capillaries to become dilated and visible. There is also a hereditary factor in
developing facial telangiecstasia. LaserFACIAL therapy will help your
appearance by treating any visible trace of these unsightly veins. Diffuse
redness is a general appearance of facial redness, such as rosy cheeks. As with
facial telangiecstasia, this condition is a result of dilated capillaries, however,
the appearance is more of a general redness rather than discrete will-defined
vessels. The most commonly affected areas are the nose, forehead and cheeks.
Diffuse redness is often associated with a condition called rosacea that can be
hereditary. LaserFACIAL therapy will help your appearance by gently treating
and reducing this condition.

What can I expect before the treatment?
There are no complicated pretreatment rituals with this procedure. Prior to
the actual LaserFACIAL treatment you will be asked to remove your make-up
or moisturizers and, in some cases, you may be asked to shave the area to be
treated so as not to interfere with the laser treatment. Your physician will
review and assist with all pretreatment requirements. There are no numbing
creams used in this procedure.

How many treatments do I need?
The treatment results are often very subtle. On average you may require 4 - 6
treatments in order to achieve the results you are looking for. Every patient's
conditions and needs vary. Some conditions may require more treatments. It is
important for the clinical staff to have a clear understanding of your
expectations to make sure they are realistic with this type of procedure. For
more information about your expected results or the number of treatments
necessary, consult your physician.

Is the treatment painful?
No, LaserFACIAL is a comfortable, non-ablative, non-invasive treatment.
Unlike other laser treatments it does not wound the skin's surface therefore
virtually eliminating the need for complicated post treatment care. Typically
patients describe the treatment as a gentle warming of the surface.
