Pulsed Light Photorejuvenation (IPL)

Photofacial is a non-abrasive and non-invasive rejuvenation of your skin using the remarkable technology of Intense Pulsed Light (IPL). IPL Photofacials can improve the signs of sun damage, rosacea and brown spots on the face, hands and body. It has also been used to reduce the appearance of mild acne scars, dark circles around the eyes and fine lines around the eyes and mouth.

The IPL Photofacial handpiece is gently pressed to the skin and painless pulses of light are emitted. Usually 4-6 treatment sessions lasting about 20 minutes each will provide you with beautiful results.

Fractional Skin Resurfacing

This laser offers skin tightening and rejuvenation through soft tissue coagulation. This results in a fresher, more youthful skin tone and texture, diminishing the appearance of wrinkles and texture imperfections. A series of treatments at 3 to 6 week intervals may be required to achieve the desired results.

Laser Acne Treatment

Acne scars and surgical scars may be a cause of a person's emotional and or physical pain and affect their quality of life. In severe cases, scars can even limit a person's mobility.

Surgical scar removal procedures are painful and invasive and have a risk for complications. Laser scar removal from Palomar® offers a noninvasive solution that uses fractional laser technology to deliver rapid, reliable scar removal with less risk, less pain and minimal downtime.

Our fractional laser technology is the driving power behind our acne and surgical scar removal procedure. We use pulses of laser light to coagulate scar tissue and trigger healthy new tissue to form in clients' skin. Healing time is minimal, infection risk is eliminated and little to no pain is felt.

Pulsed Light Hair Removal

Forget shaving, waxing, tweezing and electrolysis – Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) technology provides long-lasting hair removal on any area of the body. IPL photoepilation uses high-energy pulses of light to remove unwanted hair from the face, back, legs, bikini line and other areas without damaging nearby tissue. First, a cold gel is applied to the skin. Then the IPL handpiece is moved back and forth across the selected area. Hair beneath the skin surface absorbs the light and heats up, loosening from the follicles and eventually falling out. Patients can return to work and all regular activities immediately after the procedure. The results are immediate and long-lasting, with some permanent thinning. Several treatments may be desired for optimal results.

Laser Leg Vein Treatments

Spider and varicose veins are an embarrassing and often painful condition that affects millions of men and women as a result of heredity, pregnancy and hormones. These affected veins appear on the leg as a raised, tangled and unattractive web under the surface of the skin. Women are most often affected by this procedure, and as a result may be embarrassed to wear shorts or show their legs.

Laser vein therapy offers patients more precise results through a minimally invasive procedure, which heats the vein and causes it to close, rather than removing it surgically.

Laser Stretch Mark Removal

Laser stretch mark removal is a non-ablative cosmetic treatment used to eliminate the appearance of wrinkles, stretch marks and scarring by stimulating collagen production and skin tightening for a restored appearance. While this treatment is most commonly performed around the body, it can also be used on the neck, chest, arms and hands. The laser treatment produces highly effective results with minimal downtime.

Testimonials

"It's been one year since my facelift, and I wanted to let you know how happy I am with the results of your wonderful skill and artistry.

A year ago, I looked like I was tired and angry all the time because of my deep frown lines and the puffy bags under my eyes. There was no way for me to apply eye shadow because of all the loose skin on my upper eyelids. My jowls made me look old and out-of-shape even though my weight was (and is) normal and I go to the gym six days a week. It was so frustrating to try to look good. I found myself trying to avoid catching sight of myself in mirrors.

All those things are gone now, without a trace. I'm so happy that I look so much younger and prettier.

Your reputation was such that I had complete confidence in you, and I'm so very happy with my decision.

Words can't really express my admiration and gratitude.

Sincerely,
Eileen P.

"I want to take this opportunity to tell you how happy I am with my new arms. Having normal arms was an unreachable goal for me and I had convinced myself that I would live life the best that I could, after all I was thin, wasn’t I? There are no words that can express how I feel now. When I look at myself, my beautiful, thin shapely arms, I have you to thank."

With admiration,
Michele D.

"My daughter is in fact delighted at the results of the surgery you performed on her nose. We are all very pleased not only with the results, but with the time you took in explaining each step of the procedure. You are truly top on my list of physicians."

Sincerely,
Lourdes P.

"When we were referred to you, we were at our wit's end and you helped greatly in restoring our faith in the medical profession. Needless to say, in our view any potential patient who is referred to you either for reconstructive or cosmetic surgery is indeed fortunate!"

Thanks again,
Nora & James L.

"It has been five weeks since you have performed my "Tummy Tuck". I am writing to tell you how thrilled I am with my new look! From Kelley who treated me super, to Elyse who talked me through my many fears and frustrations, to Ellie who quietly guided me with her strength and comments, right to you, the man with the dynamite smile and award winning bed side manner. I can't thank you all enough!"

Thank you sincerely for all you have done for me,
Lisa M.

"How does one even begin to thank you for taking 15 years of aging off their face? Every morning that I look in the mirror, I am astonished and oh so very happy to see the increments of improvement in my mirror. I know that I have you to thank for these wonderful results, and believe me. I thank you everyday. Thank you for your expertise, your fearlessness, and your ability to visualize what can be."

Sincerely,
Joan K.

"All of your patients are justly blessed to be "touched" by you. Not only are you a gifted and an exceptional surgeon, you are also artistically blessed with "hands of gold." In addition, you also possess an extraordinary bedside manner."

Very truly yours,
