What’s the best laser skin resurfacing treatment?

Hello , I really need to strip away the layers of my skin, as there damaged through heat and sunburn, and burning through stuffy humid air in general, I’m 20 but over the last 6 moths various mishaps made my white skin go yellow and red under layer of damaged skin. Just wondeering what’s the best for removing many layers of skin. I hear fraxel has many problems like people coming out worse than they went in hyperpigmentation etc. So was wondering what’s the best most effective and most safest, fraxel, pearl, c02, eribium or some other treatment though laser or not, but not some weak little facial that’s not gonin 2 make a huge differenec, Is fraxel ok or what”?
The newer one is profractional laser and it doesn’t work better then fraxel.

It truly depends on exactly what needs to be properly corrected. In your case it sounds as if the Laser 360 would benefit you from a complete laser skin resurfacing approach. However, you should consult with a professional and certified laser technitian prior to receiving any treatments. FYI – Pixel Laser is an absolutely amazing skin rejuvenation treatment.

Has anyone had (facial) laser resurfacing done?

How long did it last before you thought about getting more procedures? What kind of compliments have you gotten? How long did it take for your skin’s redness to fade? How painful was it? Would you do it all over again…was it worth it? Do you or someone you know have any long-term side effects from it?
Yes, I did a few years ago. When I first had it done, I didn’t really see that much improvement, but other people commented that my skin was ‘immaculate’ lol. The redness took a couple of months to reside completely. It wasn’t that painful, just a bit uncomfortable for the first few days after. I guess the only painful part was trying to clean my skin, but apart from that it was fine. Overall, my skin was smoother, with increased elasticity and a more even skin tone. I’m probably going to have a TCA peel next time, as it is less expensive and has less downtime. HTH : )

Great News about your Laser Skin Resurfacing experience and I am Thrilled You Received Favorable Results!

Permanent Hair Removal – Laser or Electrolysis??

Posted by admin on May 17, 2010 under Alma Lasers Harmony System, laser hair removal, new york medispa

 
There are facts about Laser Hair Removal and Electrolysis Hair Removal that are often misleading, unfortunately this incorrect information is often given by many service providers in the hair removal industry.  Many of the incorrect statements being conveyed is no need for electrolysis when laser hair removal is available.

The fact is, that both Laser Hair Removal and Electrolysis Hair Removal each have their place.

Electrolysis is the only method that will effectively remove targeted hair growth mostly seen on the chin and lip areas of women.  If a laser is used on these areas where not all the hair is actively growing it could cause much more harm than good. Vellus hair, which is the superficial hair that covers mostly every inch of our body, will be singed by the laser and start the growth process.  Before any laser session the skin must be shaved to avoid burning the hair and harming the skin. By shaving this vellus hair and then applying laser, the dormant vellus hair will begin to grow and cause much more hair growth in the area being treated for removal, the dark thick targeted hairs, which are black and coarse. Electrolysis will target the terminal hairs ( thick dark hairs) that are easily seen and felt without touching the tiny, almost not visible, vellus hairs. By doing so only the individual, unwanted hairs, on the chin, lip, brows and face are targeted and guaranteed to be permanently eliminated.

If a hair removal client has full facial hair and shaves or waxes the face completely then they are a perfect candidate for laser.  Laser works best on dark hair against light skin and also full hair growth areas like bikini, under arms and legs and back. Full back hair on men respond very well to laser as every follicle has an active hair.
 
It may not be known but every square inch of skin has 6,000 hair follicles, much of which are Vellus hairs.  Electrolysis has always been the treatment for targeted permanent hair removal and should be referred by every laser center for correction.  If a laser hair removal center does not offer Electrolysis and suggests laser on these areas, the treatment will more than likely have very undesirable results in the long run and end up with much more of an unwanted hair problem.  Offering both Electrolysis and Laser Hair Removal treatments is the perfect solution to every condition of Permanent hair removal.

Pretty Face Medi Spa now offers Laser Hair Removal in motion as seen on the Doctors on CBS.  This technology is fast and much more comfortable than the standard laser and is very effective.  After six short treatments virtually all the hair is gone or reverted back to tiny unnoticeable Vellus hair.  We sell our Laser Packages in six treatments offering the last treatment complimentary.  Offering both Laser and Electrolysis continues to put Pretty Face Medi Spa as the location of choice for Permanent Hair Removal.

Effective treatment’s for acne scarring?

I’ve been suffering with acne most of my adult life. As a result i have quiet bad scarring on my back, stomach, and face. I’m currently on an antibiotic called, “Lymecycline” that i got from my GP. I’m hoping this will tackle my blackheads, and whiteheads that i have on my face, and body. But i was wondering if anyone can recommend any wash’s, cream’s that would reduce, or eradicate my acne scarring? i’ve looked into a thing called, “pixel laser” treatement, but it’s very expensive, and i’m not sure i can have it done whilst on antiobiotic’s? other option’s i’ve considered are a range of products from the harley medical group, the agera range. is the pro-activ range any good, and does that work on blemishes, and scar’s? any advice/help you can provide me, would be much appreciated. many thanks.

Alma Lasers “Harmony XL” works based on Intense Pulsed Light or IPL and provides one of a kind ability to receive three corrective procedures in one treatment. It’s called Laser 360 and is available at Pretty Face Medispa. Call for a free consultation today 914.788.9790.

What is the difference between Pixel Laser and Profractional Laser?

My doctor offers Profractional. I know how this works, by treating only part of the skin while leaving the rest untreated to speed up the healing time. And I understand this is considered to not be an ‘ablative’ treatment. So what is Pixel? Is that the same as Fractional or Profractional? This is confusing! Thanks. PS – Has anyone had either of these? The Pixel is cheaper but is it as good? Has anyone has Profractional? Quite expensive but maybe better . . . ?

 
Unlike traditional ablative lasers, used only on the face, the Laser Pixel® 2940 is targeted at treatments on the face, neck, chest, arms and hands, giving it a wider scope for treating aged and sun damaged skin. Sciton announced the launch of their ProFractional 2940nm ablative laser device during the American Society of Laser Medicine & Surgery (ASLMS) meeting in April 2006. This device has now been launched in the UK in the last month and is distributed by Sigmacon Ltd, as an additional handpiece for the Sciton Profile™ laser platform. Pixel laser reviews by RealSelf.com users 89% said worth it (8 reviews) 11% said not worth it (1 review) Cost of Pixel laser: $720 (avg of 9 reviews) www.Sciton.com has lots of info on both, couldn’t find cost of profractional laser treatments, sorry, hope this helps though. also, go to acne.org, look up PROGRESS PHOTOS: MicroLaser Peel & Profractional Laser Treatment a girl who goes by LeslieAnn got profractional laser treatment and shows photos of her progress.

Brazilian laser hair removal – safety and privacy questions?

Posted by admin on Mar 2, 2010 under Alma Lasers Harmony System, laser hair removal, new york medispa

My gf was considering getting a Brazilian laser hair removal. The main reason she doesn’t want waxing is (obviously) the pain and she also doesn’t want people rubbing into her private parts. So I was wondering if they also peer into your private parts in laser hair removal. I also heard that laser hair removal is way less painful than waxing, but some people say that it’s not safe? How will it do for South Asians with light to moderate natural tan color (olive) skins? Will it give her burns or skin deterioration or anything or does it go away after a few hours. I went on the laser hair removal website and most of them say that am experiemced, qualified laser hair removal specialist should do any part safely. Should I ask my doctor about it? My gf wants full-body Brazilian – arms, legs, torso, bum (the center too) – except the lower pubic area near the genital; how is it? And yes I know that it’s expensive so no need to repeat that over and over again. Responses from people who’ve had Brazilian laser hair removals are very welcome.
Okay… science answer: You grow in at least 80% of your hair during puberty. When you have laser hair removal the hairs it kills will never grow again. But you still have up to 20% of your normal thickness that will grow in throughout the rest of your life. So people get touch up sessions every 3-5 years after their big 6 treatments. You need about 6 treatments, one each 2 months for a year, because the hair grows in different stages and it can only kill hair in the active growth stage. The laser works by targeting dark color (the hair follicle) and passing through light color (the skin) the hair and skin have to be very different shades of color for the hair to work. The darker and coarser the hair and lighter the skin, the better results you will have. Okay… Personal Experience: I’ve had 2 out of my 6 treatments so far. It HURTS! It’s like being poked with a sewing needle over and over, but it’s not as painful as a tattoo, and that’s not as painful as childbirth, maybe that can put the pain in perspective for you =) I’ve had my legs, underarms, and bikini area done. When you get your bikini area done they do ALL of it! Including spreading your butt and vaginal lips apart to laser all the cracks… It’s sorta awkward. After the 2 treatments I’ve had so far I’ve lost about 60% of leg hair, 40% bikini hair, and 25% underarms hair. It’s because the underarms hair is the thinnest and the leg hair is the coarsest. But the legs are the most painful. The more it hurts the better it works. I spent this much for 6 treatments in each area: Bikini-$750 Underarms-$750 Legs (toes to bikini)-$2,500

Anyone have a laser Brazilian hair removal?

Posted by admin on Mar 2, 2010 under Alma Lasers Harmony System, laser hair removal, new york medispa

Really want to get this done …. hair gone for life just seems all too wonderful. Always get waxes, need something permanent. What was it like? how many sessions? does hair grow back in between treatments? can you still wax in between treatments or do you have to just let the hair grow?

Simply call Linda Nicolo at 914.788.9790 – She is the Owner of Pretty Face Medispa and I found her to be the most knowledgable, helpful and straight forward professional I have ever met in the skin care field! She makes the entire process very easy, painless and the end result is perfection!

Pretty Face Medispa also provides Botox, facial fillers, laser skin resurfacing, acne scar removal, permanent makeup, electrolysis hair removal when the laser treatment should NOT be used! Linda has taught me and many others so much over the years regarding what should or should never be done when it comes to proper treatment application.
