Let’s be honest: you want a face lift without needles or going under the knife. There are plenty of options to try before anything that intense. You don’t have to figure it out alone. Schedule an Advanced Consultation and we’ll talk through what’s right for your concerns.
Our photofacials use Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) to target pigment under the skin’s surface. They reduce the look of uneven tone, sun damage, age spots, broken capillaries and angiomas while stimulating collagen. All it takes is a few quick treatments.
We treat a wide range of concerns with our Nd:YAG (1064) laser. It’s built for hair removal and for treating broken capillaries, angiomas, venous lakes and rosacea. Laser and light-based devices are now a safe, highly effective way to reduce unwanted vascular concerns.
Laser and photofacial treatments work best for light to medium skin tones. If yours sits outside that range, your technician will point you toward another route at consultation rather than proceeding.
The best candidate has an uneven complexion with discoloration or visible veins. Photofacials may also improve the look of fine lines. For safety reasons, some conditions rule the treatment out. See the list below.
Laser and photofacial treatments work best for light to medium skin tones.
Most clients receive 3–6 treatments per area. The exact number depends on the person and the area being treated.
Services are typically done 3 weeks apart to allow enough healing time between treatments.
No need to arrive with clean skin; we wash and de-grease the area first. Stop using anything that might irritate your skin 2–3 days before, and avoid tanning, including self-tanners. You may be asked to shave the area. Remove all jewelry around the treatment area.
One session usually takes 15–45 minutes, depending on the area being treated.
Treatments usually feel like a light snap or flick on the surface of the skin.
The applicator has a built-in cooling feature to keep the treatment as comfortable as possible, though a more sensitive area like the upper lip may bring some discomfort. If it becomes too uncomfortable, tell us and we’ll adjust the device settings.
Your skin may feel warm, like a sunburn, and can stay red anywhere from a few hours to a day. Follow your before and after instructions.
It depends on how your skin reacts and how you care for it afterward; protecting your skin from the sun makes results last longer. We recommend one touch-up session every 3–6 months, depending on how your skin responds.
None. You can return to your daily schedule immediately after your treatment.
Avoid tanning for at least 2 weeks before and 2 weeks after, and wear sunscreen. Also avoid hot baths, massages, or any treatment involving direct contact with the skin for the first 2 days.
Yes. You can put makeup on right after if you like, but put sunscreen on first.
For safety reasons, you may not be able to have this treatment if any of the following apply. Tell us at your consultation. It changes the plan, not the welcome.
A tattoo or permanent makeup in the treatment area, or excessively tanned skin
History of disease that can be stimulated by heat (e.g. herpes)
Any active condition in the treatment area (e.g. eczema, psoriasis, rash)
History of skin disorders, keloids, unusual wound healing, or excessively dry and/or sensitive skin
Our laser wavelength. Optimized for hair removal and for treating broken capillaries, angiomas, venous lakes and rosacea.
Intense Pulsed Light targets pigment beneath the surface (uneven tone, sun damage, age spots) while stimulating collagen.
FDA-cleared LED panels used to calm inflammation and support healing after peels and microneedling. Not used with laser.
Pigment on the décolletage is one of the clearest cases for IPL. Believe it or not, this before and after came from a single treatment. Most courses run 3 to 6 per area, spaced about 3 weeks apart.
So, which service is right for you? You don’t have to decide on your own. Book a facial to get the ball rolling. We’ll look at your skin properly and map out the order from there.
Quality services with quality ingredients, at the spa and in the regimen you take home. Your technician recommends only what your plan needs, so the results keep going between visits.
