Fat Freezing: What to Expect

Fat freezing is almost as simple as it sounds. In a quick procedure that is completely non-invasive, we can cool your fat tissues in a single problematic area to such a temperature that they crystallize and die. This procedure is nearly as beneficial as liposuction is for many of our clients yet comes with far fewer side effects and risks. If you are interested in changing the shape of some of your curves and seeing a gorgeous new you, learn more about our cutting-edge CoolSculpting® treatments at Laser Skin Solutions Jacksonville.

CoolSculpting® has been FDA-approved for years now and has come to be associated with easy fat reduction for busy adults. If you have very little time in your schedule, are looking for a quick treatment that will not leave you recovering for a week or more and do not want to be left with major side effects, CoolSculpting® may be right for you. This treatment is used to get rid of unwanted fat cells that have not responded positively to traditional methods of fat reduction, such as diet and exercise. Rather than just decreasing the size of the fat cells, we can actually get rid of them permanently with this fat freezing treatment.

This procedure uses cryolipolysis, a procedure discovered and researched by eminent Harvard scientists. These individuals noted that children who sucked on popsicles for long periods developed dimples in their cheeks as fat cells in the area died. They took this concept and applied it to the CoolSculpting® machine that uses a combination of very cold temperatures and slight suction to produce similar results.

Your results from the fat freezing process will not be immediate but will instead gradually show up as your frozen fat cells die and are slowly flushed from your body. Full results should show up in the months following your last treatment.

At our office in Jacksonville Beach, our team at Laser Skin Solutions Jacksonville has helped many of our clients love their bodies again using fat freezing technology. Contact us today and book an appointment to learn more!

Rosacea Treatment with Facials

Rosacea is a skin condition that is a collection of symptoms that may vary from person to person. It is a medical disorder and sufferers can benefit from certain kinds of facials and other medical treatments. Facials for people with rosacea can be very beneficial for reducing the appearance of redness and calming irritation. Our trained aestheticians have years of experience in giving facials to people with rosacea. Since each case is different, it’s important to have a facial that is customized for you.

For those who have rosacea, it is important to find the specific combination of treatments for their individual condition. One of the reasons that treatments are hard to determine is because the causes of rosacea are not fully understood. The first step in treating the condition begins with a complete consultation with our specialist and a skin analysis to try to determine what is causing or contributing to your rosacea so it can be treated correctly.

A treatment will be designed specifically for you after determining the stage of your condition. The latest techniques using clinical cosmeceutical products and other tools will be chosen. Your facial may be determined by the strength of your skin’s barrier and how much inflammation is present. With that said, our Rosacea Reverser facial has shown to work wonders in the treatment of the redness.

A simple and effective daily skin care routine can be the most effective way to get the most out of our treatment. Making choices that will improve your overall health, such as getting enough sleep, having a nutritious diet that is low on processed foods and keeping sugar intake to a minimum and drinking plenty of water, can help as well.

Rosacea is a progressive chronic skin disease that typically can come and go but can be permanent if not attended to in the beginning stages. By having soothing facials at Laser Skin Solutions Jacksonville that are specially designed to treat the condition and using the right skin care products, the symptoms may be reversed over time.

Skin Tightening for a More Youthful Appearance

When you were young, your skin was in excellent condition. You had no fine lines, wrinkles or sagging regions to give you cause for concern. Unfortunately, as you age, your skin’s ability to remain tight and cling hard to the muscular structure of your face starts to decline. Before you know it, you have wrinkles and sagging skin that make you look far older than you feel. It is difficult to accept that this is what you have turned into in the last few years. The good news is that you can do something about the way you look. Yes, modern medical science has produced a number of different skin tightening treatments that will have you looking younger again. Many of these treatments are non-invasive and require relatively short periods of recovery, if any at all. The following are just a couple of approaches to skin tightening that could change the way you look for the better and turn back the clock on your appearance.

Ultherapy®

A cosmetic procedure that is growing in popularity is Ultherapy®. Not only is it a non-invasive skin tightening treatment, but the recovery time involved is next to zero. Some people have this procedure done over lunch, and they are back to work the same day. With this treatment, our team can use ultrasound imaging to figure out where to target your sublayers of skin with ultrasound energy. This precise targeting will cause proteins like collagen and elastin to form and fill in the sublayers of skin. Over the following months, your body will continue to produce these essential youth-restoring proteins. This will both provide a lift to your features and tighten up the skin.

Titan®

This skin tightening treatment utilizes specialized light-based technology to bring about amazing benefits. It uses light energy to gently heat the underlying tissue in a way that stimulates the production of collagen. The end result is gradual skin tightening in the treatment area.

Facials: What are the Benefits?

It is so satisfying to run your fingers over skin that is smooth and soft. When you look in the mirror and you see a blemish-free appearance, you feel confident and happy. Facials can help you to have skin that is soft and attractive. Here are a few benefits that you can receive from having regular professional facials done.

You may even notice an improvement in your mood when you have this treatment performed. Studies have actually proven that you can reduce stress and anxiety by having facials done regularly. Part of the reason why this is true is because there are many pressure points that are located in your face that affect different systems in your body. Your body will respond as these pressure points are massaged during the treatment process.

Your skin is going to be thoroughly cleansed during the treatment. This is a deep cleansing, not like the type of cleansing that you are able to do at home. The professional doing the facial thoroughly understands what needs to be done in order to cleanse your skin and keep it in good shape. Professional-grade products will be used to clean your skin and open up your pores.

Are you concerned about the way your appearance is changing as you are getting older? Having regular facials performed can help you fight the aging process. Or are you concerned about acne breakouts? If so, facials can be performed in a way that will detox your skin, providing many benefits.

Professional facials can also allow you to get rid of blackheads and whiteheads. They will do a gentle extraction of your pores. They will use a professional tool that will clean your pores without damaging your skin. This is not something that you can do on your own at home.

Exfoliation treatments are also used during our facials. This benefits you in that it will get rid of dead skin cells that are causing you to have a dull complexion. As the skin cells die, they can pile up on the surface of your skin. You need to have professional exfoliation done regularly in order to thoroughly clean your skin and reveal the healthy layer of skin underneath it.

BOTOX: Erase Unwanted Lines and Wrinkles

Do unwanted lines and wrinkles have you feeling down? Are you tired of trying topical creams and serums with little to no improvement in your skin? If topical products are no longer giving you the relief that you want, it may be time for the next step, which is BOTOX®, a minimally-invasive treatment that has proven itself to be incredibly safe and effective since it was approved by the FDA.

BOTOX® merely affects the nerves that run to the smallest muscles of the face that lie directly below the skin. With these nerves no longer giving off impulses, the muscles no longer can contract when you make a facial expression. Therefore, they will not let your skin crinkle up over these muscles.

Although the scientific basis for BOTOX® may be confusing to you, you have probably seen how well it has worked on the face of someone you know. Because BOTOX® is the number one cosmetic treatment used around the world, there are tens of thousands of men and women who use it regularly. Whereas it used to have the reputation of occasionally causing a frozen face, you no longer have to worry about that happening when you choose one of our amazingly knowledgeable professionals at our clinic. Our practitioners will use only the smallest possible dose that will work for you. This will give you the positive effects without leaving you with unpleasant side effects.

Erasing your unwanted lines and wrinkles with BOTOX® is fast and easy. Our treatments are perfect for busy adults of many different ages, from those in their twenties who want to prevent fine lines from appearing on their faces to older adults who want to look years younger. Although your initial consultation will take longer as we get to know you, your skin and your needs, follow-up treatments should only take minutes.

You may still have questions about BOTOX®, or you may feel ready to schedule you first appointment. In these cases, we invite you to call us at Laser Skin Solutions Jacksonville and find a consultation time that works best for you. Contact us today to book your appointment in Jacksonville Beach.
