Improve Skin Tone with an IPL Photofacial

IPL photofacial

Skin rejuvenation is best achieved when the body is allowed to naturally replace damaged cells with healthy ones. An IPL photofacial is performed by subjecting the skin to a mix of light frequencies. The idea is to stimulate new tissue creation by targeting the lower dermal layers, specifically the dark tissues that make up regions of discolored skin. Freckles, age spots, blemishes, injury scars, and even small wrinkles can be treated in this manner. If you’re unfamiliar with intense pulsed light therapy, abbreviated as IPL, our team in Jacksonville Beach can help you understand how this simple skin treatment can really give your facial skin a much-needed boost.

Using Light to Treat the Darkness

Our skin is subjected to damaging sun rays, so it would seem unlikely that intense exposure to broadband light could be beneficial. The trick is a simple one. The instrument used in IPL photofacial treatments is a special device that emits a mix of wavelengths. The device is calibrated to deliver a certain combination of frequencies, and the result is a pixelated beam of light that passes right through the epidermis without damaging it.

Instead, the light is absorbed deeper down. The darker tissues of the dermis will absorb some of these frequencies, and the tissues will heat up. Very dark spots such as freckles and acne scars will be damaged by the absorption of the light, which has now been converted into heat energy. The body will respond by discarding some of this tissue in favor or newer, healthier cells.

At the same time, capillaries in these denser, darker regions will constrict, and this helps improve overall skin tone. Collagen production also increases, and this slowly but surely results in smoother skin that shows fewer smile lines and other blemishes.

Consultation and Treatment

We consult with the client before deciding to treat the skin with an IPL photofacial. We need to look at the skin tone, skin thickness, and the depth of any discolorations. This allows us to design a customized treatment schedule. We usually schedule a series of treatment sessions for optimal results. An IPL photofacial can easily be scheduled around the client’s other activities.

Advantages of IPL Photofacial Treatments

This is a preferred treatment because it involves no skin ablation or repositioning, and also because no abrasive resurfacing is performed. The epidermal layer remains intact. The energy from the IPL instrument isn’t powerful enough to damage the skin surface.

This is a very simple cosmetic treatment for a variety of skin problems. Talk to our team at Laser Skin Solutions Jacksonville to learn more about IPL photofacials. Contact us today to schedule your personal consultation in Jacksonville Beach.

Finding Trusted Laser Genesis Doctors

Laser Genesis doctors

Laser Genesis can give you that amazing skin rejuvenation that you have longed for and can help you look and feel more youthful and gorgeous. If you have lines and wrinkles that are beginning to crop up on your face or have acne scars that you want to get rid of, this could be the perfect solution for you. If you’ve been looking for experienced and trusted Laser Genesis doctors in the area, visit Dr. Jill Lezaic and her team at Laser Skin Solutions Jacksonville!

Laser Genesis is a good choice for generally tired-looking skin as well as for skin with spots and redness. Poor, uneven skin tone can draw negative attention to your face and can make you want to hide beneath plenty of makeup. Treatments with Laser Genesis can improve how you look while also improving how you feel about yourself. In fact, it may be just what you need to feel confident in your own skin once again.

A Laser Genesis treatment is a completely non-invasive treatment that uses a handheld device positioned over the problematic skin. The laser beams create a great deal of heat, which works to remodel the collagen deep beneath the skin. While the treatment will feel warm, you will not get too hot. In fact, many people describe the treatment as comfortable and relaxing.

These laser beams provide results both on top of the skin as well as further beneath the surface. On top of the skin, the laser causes dry, dead skin cells to go away, revealing lighter, brighter and healthier skin cells beneath the surface. However, further down, collagen is activated by these beams. This causes new collagen to be developed, and it also makes the collagen that you already have work better.

Laser Genesis is an incredibly safe procedure with very few side effects. However, it’s understandable that you only want to get your treatment done by trusted Laser Genesis doctors. If you are interested in discovering a skin rejuvenation treatment that works below the surface of the skin to create real results, contact us today at Laser Skin Solutions Jacksonville and schedule a consultation at our office in Jacksonville Beach to learn more about Laser Genesis treatments.

Learn More About the Non-Invasive Ultrasound Facelift

ultrasound facelift

You are starting to show signs of aging, but they are not all that dramatic. You have some loose skin in your brow and under your chin, but for the most part, your enduring youth is still fairly well-preserved. This does not mean you cannot make some minor improvements to reverse the hands of time. You have already tried some commercially sold creams and the results did not seem to provide you with any truly lasting effects. Since you do not want to look older than necessary, you are always actively searching for new ways to return to a younger-looking you even if the move backwards is subtle. What you have been interested in, however, is the recent information you heard about the non-invasive ultrasound facelift. You really like the idea of cosmetic procedures that are non-invasive, but you are still not very clear on how an ultrasound facelift will make a difference in how you look for the better.

The Advantages of an Ultrasound Facelift

You have long-known that ultrasound can help a doctor to look inside your body during a routine exam, but what does ultrasound technology have to do with providing lift to the loose skin of your face and neck? Unlike with a standard facelift, an ultrasound facelift is truly non-invasive. The professional performing the procedure does not have to make any incisions to the facial region or manipulate the structure of the face before reattaching the facial skin in a tighter fashion.

The major advantage of an ultrasound facelift is that the time it takes to recover from such a procedure is next to nothing. This is one of the primary reasons why ultrasound cosmetic treatments are becoming so popular. They work even for extremely busy people who do not have any time to waste healing from a cosmetic procedure.

Ultrasound Energy Provides a Lift

Ultrasound technology is also used to help the professional performing an ultrasound facelift to examine the area under the epidermis to determine where they should focus ultrasound energy to provide a lift to the face. By targeting certain areas of the face with ultrasound energy, the heat produced will stimulate the body to undergo a natural healing process and start producing more collagen and elastin proteins in the targeted area.

Get Your Underarm Sweat Under Control with miraDry

miraDry

If you are working under the hot sun, it is expected that you will likely sweat. The problem comes when people sweat when they are not hot, when they are not exerting themselves, and when they are not under stress. For many people with hyperhidrosis, excessive underarm sweating is a reality of life. Thankfully, they can get their underarm sweat under control with miraDry®.

If you’re constantly worried about whether or not you’re sweating, you are less inclined to be comfortable when associating with friends and family members. You are less inclined to be relaxed, you are less inclined to have the confidence needed to do things that might be considered risky, and you are less inclined to push yourself to new heights and new limits because you are concerned about the effect that your underarm sweat is having on you.

miraDry® is a revolutionary procedure that is helping many individuals reduce underarm sweat. This laser treatment is non-surgical and has been shown to produce results that are effective and that last. The treatment is done in the comfort of our office without any cuts or incisions. Most people are able to have the miraDry® treatments done and then go right back to their everyday life as if nothing had happened.

There are no over-the-counter treatments that are going to provide the permanent results you see with miraDry®. After one treatment, you may notice a drastic decrease in the amount of underarm sweating that you have.

After miraDry® , people have been able to avoid the awkward social and workplace interactions that their excess sweat was causing. They are able to modify their wardrobe and wear clothing that they were afraid to wear before. They are no longer self-conscious that they smell bad and they are no longer self-conscious that they look like they are sweaty all the time.

Revitalize Your Skin with IPL Treatment

IPL treatment

Dull, wrinkled, and discolored skin can be rejuvenated via light therapy. Somewhat similar to laser resurfacing, intense pulsed light, or IPL, uses light energy to stimulate healthy tissue growth. Unlike a laser treatment, however, an IPL treatment doesn’t ablate the epidermis. Instead, the light energy passes through the upper skin layers and is absorbed by denser tissue that lies beneath.

We highly recommend this treatment to our clients who bring us their concerns about age-related problems such as wrinkling, increased prominence of age spots and other blemishes, and skin that is showing the effects of environmental damage. To learn more about how IPL treatment can revitalize your facial skin, contact us today.

Using Light Energy

Light is made up of photons, and photons carry energy via momentum. When a photon strikes other molecules, it’s either reflected back or absorbed. The lighter tones of the epidermis will reflect most wavelengths, but the darker, denser dermal layer will absorb certain frequencies. When this happens, the tissue heats up slightly.

An IPL device emits broadband light energy. This means that the pulsed beam is made up of a specific combination of frequencies, and this mix ensures proper absorption by the lower dermal layers. When this happens, capillaries constrict, and so does the collagen in the skin. The body responds by accelerating the production of new collagen. The shrunken capillaries diminish the appearance of such blemishes as acne scars, freckles, and age spots. After a series of IPL treatment sessions, the skin becomes smoother and more evenly toned.

Suitable for Most Individuals

Until recently, IPL treatments were restricted to individuals with very little melanin in their skin. The advancements in instrument calibration now make this treatment suitable for those with different skin tones. However, it’s important that we consult with the prospective client beforehand so that we can determine the instrument settings and construct a customized IPL treatment schedule based on the actual skin tone and texture of the client.

Likely candidates are mature adults who are experiencing dullness to the skin tone, visually apparent crow’s feet and marionette lines, or prominent blemishes that cannot be treated using creams or salves. Simply make an appointment with us at Laser Skin Solutions Jacksonville to learn more about IPL treatment and how it can help you.
