Lightwave Blue

  • Treatment Teaser Text: Clear skin begins with LIGHTWAVE therapy. A pain-free, drug-free alternative to treating unsightly acne.
LIGHTWAVE is safe, simple, and easy. The amount of time you spend at your skin care specialist may vary based on your individual skin care needs. You can expect an individual LIGHTWAVE treatment to take up 30 minutes and allow for an additional 20 minutes for pre and post care. Its so simple and fast that many patients have treatments during a lunch break or on a quick stop on the way to or from work.

What is LIGHTWAVE Blue LED?

Lightwave FDA cleared Blue Light Therapy is a natural, pain-free, treatment option which uses a powerful dosage of blue light to effectively destroy P. Acne bacteria and prevent future Acne breakouts from occurring. The blue light has a wavelength of 420nm which is primarily absorbed by the epidermis attacking the bacteria.

Is it effective?

Improvement in skin quality and a decrease in the number of lesions are often noticeable within the first few treatments. Optimal results usually occur within 8 weeks of starting the treatment.

  • How does it work?

    Acne begins to develop when dead skin cells and excess oil or sebum come together to form a plug that clogs the skin’s pores and hair follicles.

    Once the pores become clogged, acne-causing bacteria grow, infection and inflammation begin, and acne forms on the skin’s surface. If left untreated, the lesion can eventually rupture and cause scarring.

  • What can I expect?

    A LIGHTWAVE treatment is often very relaxing and enjoyable. First, the skin is cleansed with an antibacterial wash and protective eyewear is fit into place.

    Next, a panel of LIGHTWAVE blue LEDs are placed next to the affected area. The lights are illuminated and the lesions are exposed to acne-destroying blue light.

Finally, the skin is treated with a specific dose of soothing red light. This red light energy helps heal the skin and reduce inflammation.

Juvéderm

  • Treatment Teaser Text: One of the easiest ways to revitalize your appearance and reverse the effects of time.
One of the easiest ways to revitalize your appearance and reverse the effects of time is a session with FDA-approved dermal fillers. Dermal fillers contain a synthetic form of hyaluronic acid (HA), a naturally occurring molecule in your body that helps skin cells retain moisture. This soft, ultra-smooth gel can replenish lost volume and fill in lines and wrinkles for months of youthful-looking radiance.

What is Juvéderm?

JUVÉDERM® is a collection of 6 unique hyaluronic acid (HA) dermal fillers that temporarily add volume for different needs in seven specific areas of the face.

During treatment, a JUVÉDERM® filler is injected into the treatment area by a licensed specialist using a needle or cannula. JUVÉDERM® fillers add volume to the treatment area. Results with JUVÉDERM® fillers are not permanent; retreatment is usually needed to maintain your results.

Botox® Cosmetic

Injectable
Botox® Cosmetic has a distinct formulation and is the #1 selling FDA-approved medication designed to temporarily reduce the appearance of moderate to severe frown lines, crow's feet, and forehead lines in adults.

What is Botox used for?

BOTOX® Cosmetic targets one of the underlying causes of frown lines, crow’s feet and forehead lines — the repeated muscle contractions from frowning, squinting, smiling and raising the eyebrows over the years. It can also be used to reduce the muscle activity that is responsible for bruxism- grinding of the teeth- which can result in tooth sensitivity, bone loss around the teeth, tooth mobility, tooth loss and facial pain. Your specialist will inject these muscles with BOTOX® Cosmetic to temporarily reduce muscle activity. You will begin to notice a visible smoothing of the frown lines between your brows, your crow’s feet lines and your forehead lines.
  • Quick Treatment (10 minutes average)
  • Minimally Invasive with no downtime
  • Noticeable results within 24 to 48 hours
  • Subtle results, so you look like you with less facial lines
  • When will I see results?

    You may begin to notice results within 24 to 48 hours, with results lasting up to 4 months for moderate to severe frown lines.
  • What should i expect?

    Some patients report that being injected with BOTOX® Cosmetic feels like a pinch. If you are concerned about discomfort, your specialist can instead apply a topical numbing cream before administering your treatment.

Side Effects

Three percent of patients experienced eyelid drooping in the frown lines studies, one percent of patients experienced eyelid swelling in the crow’s feet studies, and one percent of patients experienced brow drooping in the forehead lines studies. Other possible side effects include: dry mouth; discomfort or pain at the injection site; tiredness; headache; neck pain; eye problems: double vision, blurred vision, decreased eyesight and dry eyes; and allergic reactions. These are not all of the possible serious side effects of BOTOX® Cosmetic. Please see the Important Safety Information including Boxed Warning and Medication Guide and talk to your specialist.
