Skin Rejuvenation

Spa Facial + Laser Light = Love Your Skin Again

Cold laser finds its place as a midway treatment between relaxing facials and semi-ablative laser procedures. This therapeutic laser softens, hydrates, and rejuvenates the skin, displaying visible results in the days to follow. It is often used in conjunction with thermal laser treatments as a way to speed tissue healing and boost results by increasing the cellular turnover rate. As a stand alone treatment, optimal results are achieved with a series of appointments. The laser skin rejuvenation treatment is non-invasive with no downtime and no pain.

Infuse your skin with the best nutrition on the planet

This highly popular three-part procedure includes microdermabrasion, cold laser and a nutrient masque.

FAQ

What is Cold (Low Level) Laser?

Laser is a modern method of therapy. The laser converts electrical energy into a form of light energy that is transmitted by means of specially designed lasers. Low power lasers do not generate heat, therefore when the laser contacts your skin, you experience no warmth or burning.
The cold laser, when applied to specific areas on the face and body, revitalizes the skin resulting in visible improvements to your general appearance.  It does this by:
  • Stimulating the production of fibroblasts—the cells responsible for collagen production.  The collagen helps fill in wrinkles and fine lines.
  • Stimulating the production of keratinocytes—new skin cells that give the face a more even, healthy appearance.
  • Increasing the production of hyaluronic acid by fibroblasts—hyaluronic acid is a natural substance in the skin that binds water.  The increase in HA levels greatly improves the hydration of the skin.
  • Stimulating the production of nitric oxide, a powerful vasodilator—the improved blood flow helps nourish new skin cells with an improved supply of nutrients.  The increased blood flow to the face also produces a more youthful glow.

What causes my skin to change?

Skin changes are related to environmental factors, genetic makeup, nutrition and other factors.  The greatest single factor, though, is sun exposure.  This can be seen by comparing areas of your body that have regular sun exposure with areas that are protected from sunlight. Naturally, as we age, our skin undergoes many changes.

What happens when skin ages?

  • Turnover of new skin cells (keratinization) decreases.
  • The natural process of skin erosion, the sloughing off of dead skin cells, slows down and becomes uneven, giving the skin a dry and rough character.
  • Decrease in hyaluronic acid, a natural water-binding substance found in large quantities in younger skin.
  • Collagen becomes disorganized and fragmented
  • the number of melanocytes decreases, but the remaining melanocytes increase in size.  This results in paler skin, with some large pigmented spots (age spots, liver spots, lentigos) that may appear in sun-exposed areas.
  • Changes in the connective tissue reduce the skin’s strength and elasticity.  This is known as elastosis and is especially pronounced in sun-exposed areas (solar elastosis).  Elastosis produces the leathery, weather-beaten appearance common to farmers, sailors and others who spend a lot of time outdoors.
  • The blood vessels of the dermis become more fragile, which in turn leads to bruising, bleeding under the skin, cherry angiomas and other conditions.
  • Sebaceous glands produce less oil as you age.  Men experience a minimal decrease, usually after the age of 80.  Women gradually produce less oil beginning after menopause.  This can make it harder to keep the skin moist, resulting in dryness and itchiness.
  • The subcutaneous fat layer, which provides insulation and padding, thins.  This increases risk of skin injury and reduces ability to maintain body temperature.

What are the signs of aging skin?

  • wrinkles
  • sagging skin
  • thin, translucent skin
  • hollowed cheek and eye sockets (loss of fat)
  • dry skin
  • furrows in brow or forehead
  • drooping eyelids
  • hair loss, unwanted hair, graying hair
