Procedures Offered:

Laser Hair Removal

With Laser Hair Removal, most people can expect a hair reduction of 80% with remaining hair becoming finer in texture and lighter in color.

Laser light targets the hair at the base of the follicle under the skin. The laser is a concentrated beam of light that passes through you surface skin and is absorbed at the base of the hair shaft.

Only hair in the active growth phase can be permanently removed. For the average person only 30% of the hair is in the antigen, or active phase.

Our hair reduction goal is 10-20% per treatment. Each patients result is completely dependent on the individual. It may take anywhere from 3-15 treatments several weeks apart to achieve the optimal result. This is related to the patient’s age, hormonal balance, gender, area of the body, diet, medical conditions, and even time of the year.

Vein Removal Therapy

Laser energy is absorbed by the pigment in your blood and collapses the unwanted vein. You can expect 2 treatments 6 weeks apart to completely seal the vessel. Once the vessel os sealed the blood from the vessel will pool like a bruise and need to be reabsorbed by the body. The appearance of the leg vein will either dramatically fade or completely disappear during the treatment. Some vessels may show temporary swelling that will subside after a few hours to a few days. The redness of the treated vessel will gradually disappear as the healing process occurs.

At the Laser Enhancement Center we recommend the use of a topical for both the hair removal and leg vein therapy.

Face, Neck and Hand Rejuvenation

Collagen Rejuvenation is a series of 6-8 treatments 2-4 weeks apart. This process of collagen rebuilding plumps the collagen at a cellular level that settles over time. As we age the collagen fibers pull apart causing fine lines and wrinkles in our skin. The laser heat stimulates those collagen fibers to reconnect, filling in those depressed areas. Studies show the toning level remains for 9-12 months. We recommend one session every year to help maintain your results.

Treatment of Vascular Lesions

A vascular lesion is formed by abnormally large or numerous blood vessels located directly under the skin. These vessels may be visible through the skin or result in a red appearance of the skin.

At the Laser Enhancement Center we can treat a wide variety of vascular conditions.

  • Facial Telangiectasia- Spider veins caused by a dilation of capillary vessels or arteries.
  • Cherry Angiomias- Slightly raised red lesions.
  • Spider Angiomias- Slightly raised, red vein-like lesions.
  • Rosacea- Red facial lesions around the nose and cheeks causing a sunburn look.

Patients who suffer from Rosacea have numerous vessels on the nose and cheek area which causes the patient to have a sunburned appearance. Sometimes these vessels will cause eruptions that have an acne-like appearance and can cause deep pocket scarring. After treatment with our Diolite 532nm Laser, the vessel diminishes and the area looses its sunburned appearance. Patients who are on high doses of antibiotics to minimize this condition find that they can discontinue oral therapy altogether or reduce to a maintenance dose.

Treatment of Pigmented Lesions

Melanin is the dark pigment present in the skin and is produced by melanocytes. Pigmented lesions occur when an abundance of melanocytes are found in the skin. When dark pigment multiplies, it forms freckles, brown spots, age spots and moles.

The Laser Enhancement Center offers treatment for the following pigmented lesions:

  • Lentigines- Flat, brown spots on the skin, present with frequent sun exposure.
  • Keratosis- Slightly elevated pigmented spots often found on the hands and back.
  • Freckles- Brownish spots on the skin common on people of Asian or African descent.

Flat warts, Active Acne and Acne Pockets can also be treated with the Diolite 532nm Laser.
