The number of treatments will vary depending on the type of ink used, size of the tattoo and depth of the tattoo. Even different colors such as red, yellow, or green can be successfully treated and faded. Each treatment usually only lasts several minutes. We implement different techniques such as local anesthetic, numbing cream, and cold to make it as comfortable as possible.

Compared to other methods of hair removal such as tweezing, waxing, or plucking this method is faster and more comfortable. A specialized laser delivers light energy to the hairy area and gently eliminates the hair follicle while preserving the skin. Hair removal treatments are performed in a series-usually 5-7 treatments spaced 4-8 weeks apart. Each session lasts 15 minutes to several hours depending on the number of areas covered. The laser treatments work best on dark hair. All areas of the body can be treated. Feel free to schedule a complimentary consultation.

Laser Tattoo Removal
If you have a tattoo you no longer want, laser removal can eliminate the tattoo for you. Our YAG tattoo removal laser emits specific light energy that is absorbed by the tattoo pigment. We can treat blue ink as well as colored tattoos. The pigment is broken up by the laser into smaller pieces that the body can then eliminate on its own. After the laser treatment session the tattoo is covered by antibiotic ointment and a light bandage. The area can develop a thin scab that usually heals in a few days. The tattoo removal often requires multiple treatments about 6 weeks apart.

For best results these treatments are performed in a series of 5-7 treatments spaced 4 weeks apart. The laser treatment has minimal down time and you can apply make up following the session.

Removing Sun-Damaged Skin
Microdermabrasion (often referred to as Microderm) is a family of cosmetic procedures in which the stratum corneum (dead outermost surface of the skin) is partially or completely removed by light abrasion, thus eliminating sun-damaged skin. It can also be used to remove or lessen scars and dark spots on the skin.
The procedure is hardly painful and requires no anaesthetic. Microdermabrasion can be used medically for scar removal when the scar is raised above the surrounding skin, but is less effective with sunken scars. There is some evidence that microdermabrasion stimulates collagen formation. Microdermabrasion can also be used for treatment of acne, but must be repeated periodically to be effective.

Smoothing Your Skin with a Chemical Peel
A chemical peel uses a chemical solution to improve and smooth the texture of the facial skin by removing its damaged outer layers. It is helpful for those individuals with facial blemishes, wrinkles and uneven skin pigmentation. Phenol, trichloroacetic acid (TCA) and alphahydroxy acids (AHAs) are used for this purpose. The precise formula used may be adjusted to meet each patient’s needs.
FDA Approves Dysport
Just very recently, the Food and Drug Administration approved Dysport, the first new botulinum toxin for wrinkles and muscle spasticity since cosmetic Botox was introduced in 2002. This latest wrinkle fighter is a modified version of botulinum toxin A and inhibits facial muscle contractions that over time lead to forehead lines, frown lines and crows feet. Dr Orloff found that Dysport was extremely effective in reducing frown lines between the eyebrows. Our results in treating patients showed that Dysport injections would reduce lines and furrows between the eyebrows within 7 days. Side effects were infrequent and resolved within a few weeks.
Clear the Skin with Laser
The laser has found entry in many areas of medicine and plastic and cosmetic surgery is no exception. There are many different types of lasers used, specialized for the different applications and goals.
Laser skin rejuvenation improves many skin imperfections. Lasers using Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) uses a broad spectrum of light to achieve many benefits. Your skin tone and texture will become more even and uniform eliminating spots and blotchiness. These treatments are performed in a series usually 5-7 treatments spaced 4-7 weeks apart. The therapy stimulates growth of collagen and elastin that leaves the skin feeling smoother and tighter. It can eliminate fine lines. The light is also absorbed by vascular lesions such as small capillaries on the cheeks and around the nose and over times slowly destroys them. It leaves the skin looking less red. Sun damage can cause more freckles and brown spots. These darker pigmented lesions absorb the light energy and fade over time. The treatments take 30-60 minutes and have no down time. You can apply make up on immediately after the treatment and return to your usual activities.
