What
is PhotoRejuvenation? |
| |
|
PhotoRejuvenation
is a series of Intense Pulsed Light treatments that improve the appearance
of Rosacea, flushing, broken capillaries, sun damaged skin, age spots,
skin texture, and photo aging. This treatment also improves mild acne
scars, reduces large pores, corrects dark circles around the eyes,
and reduces fine lines. Treatments are especially effective for improving
the appearance of the face, neck, chest, and hands. This exciting
treatment involves little or no "down time." You can resume
normal activities immediately. |

How
does the treatment work? |
| |
|
An intense light
is applied in a series of gentle pulses over the treatment area. Without
damaging the skin, the light penetrates through the skin and is absorbed
by the abnormally dilated vessels or pigmentation. The heat causes
damage to the vessel or lesion, and the body begins its natural healing
process. The lesion will darken before it flakes off or fade as the
body absorbs it. Treatment can be given as frequently as every three
weeks. |
|
| |
| |
How
many treatments will I need? |
| |
|
For optimal results,
a series of 3 to 5 treatments are recommended. Follow-up treatments
may be recommended to maintain results. |
|
| |
| |
What
is a treatment like? |
| |
|
Treatment may
vary from 15 to 45 minutes depending on the size of the area to be
treated. First, the treated area is cleansed and a cool gel is applied.
When the pulse of light is delivered, the sensation is similar to
a snap of a rubber band. After treatment, the gel is removed, the
skin cleansed, and a sunscreen is applied. Pain is minimal; however;
topical anesthesia can be used for maximum comfort. For sensitive
skin, a cool compress is applied following treatment. |
|
| |
| |
Are
there any possible side effects? |
| |
|
Side effects
are rare. Immediately following treatment, the skin may appear flushed,
brown pigmented spots may appear darker, and capillaries may be more
visible. In rare instances, temporary swelling and/or blistering can
occur. |
|
| |
| |
What
improvement will I see? |
| |
|
Patients have
a high degree of satisfaction with their results. Expect to see a
gradual decrease in redness, broken capillaries, flushing, irregular
pigmentation, pore size and fine lines. After each treatment, the
skin will feel smoother and appear to have a more even tone. |
