The dark pigment in the hair follicle known as melanin absorbs the laser light energy. This light creates heat at the hair follicle cells & permanently disables them. Darker & coarser hairs respond better to laser treatment because it has more melanin. White, blond, grey, & light red hair do not respond well to laser treatment because they have less pigment & melanin. Sorry, coloring the hair does not add color to the hair follicle so it still won’t work, but clever idea!!!

Before your first treatment you will have a consultation & will be asked several questions about your medical status, sun exposure, medications you are taking, prior treatments & any medical conditions. If you have any medical condition, please discuss the laser hair removal process w/ your physician.

The treatment feels like a cold spray on your skin followed by a rubber band snapping. Some areas of the body are painless & some areas hurt more. Numbing creams are available for purchase prior to your treatment. The numbing cream needs to be applied at least 30 minutes prior to your treatment & it needs to be cleaned off completely prior to your treatment. If you are planning on using a numbing cream, make sure you come to the office at least 30 minutes before your appointment to apply the cream.

Skin Tightening‎

What is Skin Tightening w/ the GentleYAG

Skin tightening is a procedure by which you can have firmer & smoother skin on the face & other areas such as abdomen & scars. By using the deep penetrating & safe wavelengths of light from the Candela GentleYAG laser, your skin can begin to see improvement.

How do I prepare for the Laser Skin Tightening treatment

Your skin should be thoroughly cleaned & dried, removing any makeup, creams, oils, topical anesthetics or self-tanning products before laser treatment. The intended treatment area should not be exposed to sunlight or tanning booth light for 2 weeks prior to treatment.

How many Skin Tightening Laser treatments will I need

The number of the Collagen Stimulating treatments can vary depending on the severity of the condition being treated. The number of treatment usually recommended is 6. You will begin to see results prior to finishing the series of treatments & continue to notice improvement over time up to one year after your last treatment.

What can I expect after the Skin Tightening Laser treatment

Hydrocortisone cream will be applied after your treatment. You can expect some redness & swelling which will dissipate in a few hours to 48 hours. Your face may feel warm or feel like you have sunburn for a few hours.

How often do I need to have a treatment

The treatments are scheduled once a month for 6 continuous months.

How does the Laser Skin Tightening treatment work

The laser creates a beam of high intensity light that goes into skin tissue where it delivers a controlled amount of targeted therapeutic heat. The heat stimulates collagen production & leads to skin tightening.

Does the Skin Tightening laser treatment hurt

There is some discomfort w/ each laser pulse, best described as the snapping of a rubber band on the skin. The discomfort resolves in several seconds.

Are there any side effects from the Skin Tightening Procedure

Normal side effects may include redness & swelling which will last for 24-48 hours. Rare side effects include pigmentation changes, blistering & bruising. These are very, very rare & generally only last a few days.

What precautions should I take after the Skin Tightening Laser Treatment

You should prevent sun exposure for a week following treatment. Applying a sun block (SPF 30 or above) is recommended. Do not scrub the face in the first few days following treatment. Do not use any glycolic or alpha-hydroxy acid products following treatment. Treat your skin gently as if you had sunburn.
