Advancements In Laser Treatments Mean You Can Feel Beautiful From Head to Toe, Well, Face To Legs, Using The Power Of Non-Invasive Light Energy With Minimal To No Side Effects.

Your skin says so much about you. It gives people a glimpse into your diet and lifestyle choices.

You’ve probably heard the expression, ‘For better or worse,’ right? That’s basically how this goes as well. If you have poor habits, people may know it from your skin.

On the other hand, if you’re eating a diet high in sugar or spending a great deal of time outdoors without sunscreen, your skin could give away your habits.

Fortunately, laser treatment could be your ticket to make everyone say, “I wonder what ___ did to get skin like that.”

Discover laser therapy and its youth-defying effects on your skin.

Starting with Your Face

Pearl skin rejuvenation is a treatment that uses a fractional CO2 laser to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. On patches of skin with an uneven texture, it’ll smooth rough spots.

And on areas with uneven coloring, this treatment can even out your skin tone. No matter the case, you’ll reveal more youthful, radiant skin.

Want to know more about this revolutionary treatment? We’ve put together a little bit of info to help you decide if it’s right for you.

  • Where We Administer Pearl

    Typically, we use Pearl on your face, neck, or chest — all the areas most affected by bad habits like smoking and sun exposure. These are also the regions of your body that aren’t always covered by clothing, so people constantly see these parts of you.

    And these regions are giving away your real age, or it may even be making you look older than you are if you haven’t taken care of yourself.

  • What to Expect During Treatment

    Most people only need one 30- to 60-minute treatment to see full results. In more serious cases, though, two to three may be necessary.

    Since this treatment can be a bit uncomfortable — as it may cause a warming, stinging, or pricking sensation — our practitioner will start your laser treatment by applying a numbing cream. In general, you may tolerate it well if you have a high threshold for pain, but you’ll still want the cream to ensure you remain comfortable throughout your session.

    To maximize your results, Dr. Shel will create a plan especially for your skin type and issues. She’ll determine the pattern and setting to improve the appearance of your skin most effectively.

    The laser is directed at the top layer of skin, but it penetrates deeply. It causes microscopic “damage” to the skin that your body naturally works to repair.

    Heat from the laser will even reach the dermis, where it stimulates collagen production to help with the healing process. And this extra collagen improves the skin in that area’s strength, elasticity, and structure.

  • What to Expect Afterward

    After treatment, your skin will naturally form a protective barrier to prevent further damage. It works in your favor during your recovery period as well since it minimizes your downtime.

    Typically, it’ll appear in the form of scabbing or a crust.

    Around day three or four after treatment, that natural dressing will peel off to uncover healthy, glowing, more flawless skin.

    You’ll have a short period (three to four days) of “social downtime” because you may have some redness and swelling. Additionally, for the first week or two, you’ll want to avoid intense exercise because it can trigger sweating that’ll irritate your skin.

    Moreover, for the first two or four weeks, you’ll want to avoid direct sunlight. Wearing sunscreen with protection with an SPF of 30 or higher during that time is necessary to prevent sunburn from disrupting the healing process.

Extending Down Your Legs

Spider veins occur when you have noticeable, damaged blood vessels. Although they could appear on your face, chest, neck, or other locations on your body, they often develop on your legs because of all the pressure you place on them when you’re walking.

Pain can arise from spider veins, but in many cases, they’re merely a cosmetic problem.

Though this concern is most common as you age, other factors can affect whether you develop them, such as:

  • Genetics
  • Living a sedentary lifestyle
  • Pregnancy
  • Hormonal changes
  • Obesity
  • Excessive sun exposure, especially on your face if you’re fair-skinned

So, how can Dr. Shel help? With laser spider vein removal, that’s how! Let’s discuss how it works and what to expect.

  • How Laser Spider Vein Removal Works

    Chemical and surgical options exist, but Dr. Shel offers laser spider vein removal — a laser treatment that doesn’t require incisions or injections.

    It works by directing light energy at the affected vein(s). The hemoglobin in your blood absorbs the light, which stimulates heat to build up inside the vein, causing it to collapse. It then seals shut. After it’s no longer in use, your body will absorb the collapsed vein.

    But don’t worry, your body will compensate for the vessel(s) that are no longer in use. The blood will automatically reroute to nearby, healthier veins.

  • What to Expect During Treatment

    Before the treatment, Dr. Shel may apply a cooling gel to the skin. You can also request a numbing cream if you’re hyper-sensitive to pain, but most people usually tolerate the treatment well.

    Even without any type of relief, it usually only causes a mild stinging sensation. Some patients describe the feeling as snapping a rubber band against their skin. Others describe it as a tingling or slight warming sensation.

    Smaller areas tend to take only 15 to 30 minutes, while larger sections could take up to an hour.

    You typically only need one or two treatments, but three are sometimes required for more serious cases. While you may notice changes immediately, it could take up to four months for the spider vein(s) to disappear.

  • What to Expect Afterward

    Keep in mind that your results may vary based on your overall health. Metabolism can impact your results as well because having a faster one means your body will process the damage veins quicker.

    Fortunately, you won’t have any downtime with this treatment. You can immediately resume your normal activities after your treatment. You won’t even need to wear compression stockings!

    That said, Dr. Shel usually recommends you avoid strenuous activity for the first 72 hours. The results you receive are usually permanent. However, the veins can reappear in some cases in a nearby location. If this happens, Dr. Shel can perform a follow-up treatment.
