How Do Laser Treatments Work?
Laser treatments work wonders by directing a powerful beam of light onto the skin. The light is absorbed by the skin’s pigment, triggering the breakdown of damaged cells, which are then naturally eliminated by the body. This kickstarts the production of fresh skin cells, leading to a revitalized complexion that’s smoother, clearer, and radiantly youthful.
Popular Laser Treatments:
There are numerous laser treatments that address a range of skin concerns, providing tailored solutions for individual needs. Here are some top picks:
BBL™ (Broadband Light) / BBL™ HERO
BBL™/ BBL™ HERO by Sciton is a superhero for your skin, tackling pigment issues, sun damage, and those early signs of aging with its intense pulsed light (IPL) technology. By stimulating collagen production, BBL™ rejuvenates your skin for a youthful glow while also reducing redness/rosacea and addressing broken capillaries.
To prepare for BBL™ Laser Treatment, you should avoid direct sun exposure, tanning beds, spray tans, and self-tanners for at least 2 weeks before the procedure.
After the treatment, your provider will provide post-care instructions, including the use of a gentle cleanser and hydrating cream. It’s essential to apply SPF regularly, and while makeup can be worn if desired, direct sun exposure and tanning beds should be avoided for at least 2 weeks afterward.
This treatment is perfect for anyone aiming for a smoother and more even skin tone, as it effectively boosts collagen levels.
A series of 2-6 treatments is recommended for best results, with maintenance sessions advised to prolong the benefits.
HALO™
HALO™ by Sciton achieves long-lasting results with minimal downtime. By combining ablative and non-ablative resurfacing and retexturizing, this revolutionary treatment stimulates the production of healthy skin cells, targeting areas affected by sun exposure, an active lifestyle, and the natural aging process. Say goodbye to wrinkles, discoloration, scars, and laxity!
Ideal candidates for this treatment include individuals seeking significant enhancements in skin texture.
Plus, you won’t have to wait long to see noticeable results; typically, just 1-2 treatments are all it takes.
Pro tip: Combine BBL + HALO – Face, Neck, and Chest
The Moxi® Fractional Laser
Moxi® is a gentle, non-ablative option that offers a path to radiant skin with minimal downtime compared to more intense laser procedures. Ideal for those aiming to tackle and prevent early signs of aging, Moxi® utilizes fractionated wavelengths to boost collagen, address fine lines, texture issues, and hyperpigmentation.
Preparing for Moxi®, you should avoid direct sun exposure and tanning beds for 1-2 weeks before the procedure. Additionally, spray tans and self-tanners should be avoided for 2 weeks prior. If treating melasma with Moxi®, pre-treatment with retinol and hydroquinone may be advised, with further details discussed during your complimentary consultation with your provider.
After the treatment, your provider will provide you with a gentle cleanser and hydrating cream for post-care. Makeup and SPF can be worn 24 hours after the treatment. It’s crucial to avoid direct sun exposure and tanning beds for 2 weeks following the procedure. It’s also important not to pick at the MENDS, as they will naturally slough off in 5-7 days.
With customizable settings tailored to your skin goals and concerns, Moxi® stands out as one of the gentlest cosmetic laser treatments available. Safe for use on darker skin tones and melasma, it’s a great choice for first-time laser therapy patients.
