Laser Treatments

IPL Laser Treatment For Vascular and Pigmented Lesions
Brown spots, broken capillaries, and other fallout from photoaging are easy targets for laser systems that use broadband light to repair these defects through a process called photorejuvenation. Additionally, facial wrinkles can now be treated non-ablatively, contributing to a more youthful appearance. Using relatively low-energy, short-pulse broadband light, imperfections such as redness of rosacea, superficial capillaries, sun spots, age spots, and other discolored signs of photoaging can be gently heated and eliminated, replaced by newer, younger looking skin. Treatment is gentle and with minimal downtime.
Key Advantages For Patients
  • Reduce the signs of aging with a quick, 20-minute procedure
  • Almost “no downtime” procedure makes it perfect for lunch breaks
  • Treatment leads to continued effects over time
Non-Surgical, Quick and Effective

Nearly 100% of all people have one or more pigmented (dark-colored) lesions. Some are caused by sun exposure, others by aging. Still others are congenital. Regardless of the cause, pigmented lesions are simply spots on the skin where there is a higher concentration of melanin. Some lesions are flat; others are raised. In most cases, pigmented lesions are merely a cosmetic concern, but in some cases, they can be an early sign of skin cancer.For most benign pigmented lesions that are of a cosmetic concern, there is a non-surgical option using the VP handpiece available on the Harmony®XL. By exposing a pigmented lesion to short pulses of visible light, the temperature in the highly concentrated melanin can be raised sharply, enough to shatter the cells containing the melanin. The body then replaces these cells with new cells generated by the surrounding untreated area. The AFT 540 VP handpiece offers unique wavelength and pulse width capabilities, allowing it to treat pigmented lesions on any skin type.
