Questions

What's the difference between Chemical Peels and Micro Dermabrasion treatments? TOP

Chemical peels and Micro Dermabrasion treatments are both designed to remove dead skin from the epidermis.  Micro Dermabrasion treatments actually remove the dead skin during the actual treatment while chemical peels actually peel 3-5 days after the chemical is applied to your skin.  There are advantages for both treatments depending on what you are trying to correct or prevent.  See one of our MedSpa Aestheticians for a free skin care consultation to find out why which treatment is best for your skin. 

Does your facility offer hair and nail services? TOP

How does Permanent Hair Removal work? TOP

The system we use is called the Lumenis IPL Quantum.  The IPL Quantum uses Intense Pulsed Light to damage the hair follicle.  The machines treatment head emits light energy and then the light attaches itself to pigment.  The light travels down the hair follicle to the hair follicle bed.  Light creates heat and the heat begins to penetrate, impair, and damage the hair follicle bed.  After enough damage is done to the hair follicle bed there will be several changes and a reduction in the amount of hair growth. 


 

What kind of results should I expect from my hair removal treatments? TOP
1. An average person needs approximately 8-12 treatments.  The number of treatments required varies from person to person and is influenced by hair color, hair density, hair growth cycle, skin color, and the desired cosmetic effects. 

2. Optimal results are equivalent to 75-85% of the hairs being impaired and not functioning like they used to function.  Approximately 8-12 treatment will provide you with optimal results.  

3. Appointments are scheduled every 3-4 weeks apart unless your technician has decided another time frame may be better for you.   

4. Three things occur after you receive enough appointments and sufficient damage has been done to your hair follicle beds:

a. Over time your hair starts growing slower due to the damage and impairing of the hair follicle matrix.

b. Over time your hair starts growing lighter in color due to the damage of the pigmented portion of your hair follicle bed.

c. Over time your hair will start growing finer and softer in texture due to the damage of the hair follicle matrix.

Please keep in mind that results vary from person to person depending on: the number of treatments required for the individual, hair color, hair density,
hair growth cycle, skin color (including any tanning), and the desired cosmetic effects. Laser Hair Removal is a machine that emits light and this light attaches itself to pigment.
