Laser Hair Removal: Just The Facts

The Skin Care Clinic offers the latest in Laser Hair Removal technology. Our laser permanently reduces hair safely with minimal downtime. Most patients require 8-10 treatments with each treatment ranging from 15-60 minutes (depending on the area being treated). The treatment sessions are scheduled 4-6 weeks apart for optimal hair reduction. Patient comfort is maximized with a topical numbing cream and cooling technique.

 

How It Works:

The Syneron is one of the fastest and most effective hair removal systems available. This type of hair removal is long lasting and allows large areas of skin to be treated at the same time. The laser is directed through the skin to the hair follicle, where it stops growth. A gel is used on the surface of the skin for conduction and cooling purposes. Most patient experience minimal discomfort and find the procedure to be very tolerable.

 

How Long It Lasts:

Intended to be permanent, but people often need to return every 6 months to a year for maintenance.

 

Pre / Post-treatment Tips:

Patient must shave (NOT wax) 1-2 days prior to each treatment to promote effectiveness. Sun should be avoided before and immediately after each treatment to minimize skinirritation and discoloration.

Liquid Face Lift : What You Need to Know

“I didn’t want to go under the knife but I wanted to do something to rejuvenate my look”.

The Skin Care Clinic has heard this repeatedly, and when smaller alternatives are not
enough, we are pround to now introduce “The Instant Facelift”.

Injectables and fillers used to serve one purpose: filling lines and wrinkles. Over the last
few years, expert injectors have preferred the use of injectables, and now a myriad of
injectables can be used during a single treatment to add volumeand lift drooping features
and skin. Known as The Injectable Lift, this is a viable option for those who want a
quick fix in about an hour.

PROS AND CONS:

“Instant Facelift”, in the right patient, is an excellent option, but it is not as permanent as
a scalpel facelift, says Dr. Jeffery Olsen, MD.

What an “Instant Facelift” can do:

1. Fill lines and wrinkles
2. Increase volume
3. Add Definition

What an “Instant Facelift” cannot do

1. Elimanate excess skin
2. Provide long term results
3. Tighten the skin excessively

A free consultation at our office in Newport Beach can determine if you are a candidate,
and educate you on what your options are!
