CLARITY LASER ™ - FOR REMOVING UNWANTED HAIR AND PIGMENT AND REJUVENATING SKINWHAT IS LASER HAIR REMOVAL? Laser hair removal is a non-surgical, non-invasive method of removing unwanted hair. A laser beam travels through the skin and is attracted to the pigment of the hair. The energy then flows to the hair follicle growth cells to inhibit further hair growth. Not all hair removal treatments are equal, some lasers require more treatments, more time, additional pain and at home solutions are not permanent. Cleared by the FDA (US Food and Drug Administration) for permanent hair reduction, you can count on Clarity to provide a permanent solution for your unwanted hair. WHO IS A GOOD CANDIDATE FOR LASER HAIR REMOVAL? All hair removal lasers work by targeting the pigment within the follicle, which means the darker your hair the easier it will be to treat. However, today’s lasers such as the CLARITY™, treat a full spectrum of skin types and hair color. MULTIPLE TREATMENT OPTIONS WITH CLARITY™ SUPERIOR CHOICE FOR HAIR REMOVAL, PIGMENT, VASCULAR, SKIN REJUVENATION Hair removal Skin tightening & firming Skin rejuvenation Large pore Black head Pigmented lesions Epidermal pigment Vascular lesions Facial telangectasias Flushing Rosacea Leg veins Warts Onychomycosis ARE THERE ANY SIDE EFFECTS WITH LASER HAIR REMOVAL? Side effects are usually mild. The skin may appear red-similar to a sunburn-but this subsides within 24-48 hours. Other side effects, such as blisters, are extremely rare. HOW WILL I PREPARE FOR A LASER HAIR REMOVAL TREATMENT? After a consultation with Jenna Peck, APRN, we will provide specific instructions prior to your treatment. Usually the area to be treated should be shaved first to ensure a more comfortable and effective treatment. HOW LONG DOES THE TREATMENT TAKE? The treatment can take between 2 minutes up to 15 minutes, depending on the size of the area. HOW MANY TREATMENTS WILL I NEED? Hair grows in cycles and most patients need at least 3 or more treatments spaces 4-8 weeks apart for a satisfactory result. IS LASER HAIR REMOVAL PAINFUL? Most patients experience mild pinching of the skin as the laser moves over the hair. The CLARITY™ laser has a specialized air cooling system that makes the treatments more comfortable.

As you age, these lines may become more noticeable. Fillers are a fast, safe, and easy way to restore volume to thinning lips and sagging lip line, fill lines around the mouth, or lift and re-volumize hollow cheeks.

SCULPTRA® AESTHETIC - FOR STIMULATING COLLAGEN AND RESTORING VOLUMESculptra® Aesthetic is a poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) based treatment. Unlike hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers, Sulptra® Aesthetic once injected begins working deep within the skin to stimulate collagen production, reinforcing the skin’s inner structure and restoring its volume. Sculptra® Aesthetic works subtly and as we age, we lose collagen which leads to weakening of your skin’s inner structure reducing its ability to maintain elasticity and moisture. The break down of collagen then leads to lines, wrinkles and folds in the facial structure. Volume loss and support is also present with collagen loss. Dermal fillers address lines, wrinkles, folds not collagen loss. We evaluate each patient to decide what treatment is best for them, this could be a series of treatments and or a combination of treatments along with a prescribed pre-conditioning skin care regimen. Upon a consultation we can determine if you are a candidate for Sculptra® Aesthetic. CLICK HERE TO BOOK A SCULPTRA CONSULT

A medical grade device designed to improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, scarring and pigment of the face and body. SkinPen® allows for controlled induction of the skin’s self-repair process by creating thousands of precise micro-injuries in the dermis triggering new collagen synthesis without causing scar tissue formation. Making headlines in the news on “The View” in 2013 and recently winning the 2017 Aesthetic Industry Award for meeting the Gold Standard in microneedling. SkinPen® by Bellus Medical is the only legally marketed and FDA cleared microneedling device. MICRONEEDLING + PRP SkinPen® Microneedling combined with PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) is an effective therapy to remove acne scars, age spots, as well as improve poor skin texture and tone. Results are seen within one week of treatment. After one treatment of SkinPen® Microneedling with PRP your skin will be rejuvenated and tighter. For optimal results, we recommend a series of three treatments, 4-6 weeks apart. Additionally, we recommend pre-conditioning your skin with Defenage for 2 weeks prior and adding a CooLift hyaluronic acid treatment at the end of your procedure to further aid in collagen building. We will be happy to answer further questions regarding this unique procedure at the time of your consultation and customize your SkinPen® Microneedling treatment for optimal results! WHAT IS PRP THERAPY? PRP or (Platelet Rich Plasma) combined with microneedling is one of the most effective ways to achieve quick, repairing results for your skin’s overall heath. A small amount of blood is collected in a tube just like when you have your blood drawn for lab tests. Once collected, it is placed in a centrifuge and spun. The plasma is separated from the blood and then collected into a syringe. We call this the “Golden Good Stuff”. Growth factors and platelets, we have extracted from your blood are then dripped over your skin as we microneedle over the face or areas being treated. The benefit of PRP is powerful and when combined with microneedling it is delivered to reach deeper parts of the dermis. This rejuvenates skin’s repair mechanism and stimulates collagen production. TOP 6 BENEFITS OF SKINPEN MICRONEEDLING + PRP: Repairs damaged skin (skin texture, tone, pore-size, pigment) Non-invasive (takes 30 minutes in office) Short Recovery Period (2-3 days of “mild sunburn” look) Your Skin Heals Itself (results beginning in one week) Painless (local numbing ointment applied, no anesthesia required) Long Lasting Effects (takes longer for collagen to break down than dermal fillers) CLICK HERE TO BOOK A MICRONEEDLING + PRP CONSULT

PDO THREAD LIFT - THE NON-SURGICAL FACE LIFT ALTERNATIVENovaThreads are FDA-cleared, absorbable sutures placed under the facial skin to physically lift the interstitial tissue and enhance collagen production. They work especially well to tighten skin on the neck, lower and midface, and jawline, to restore the face's youthful V-shape. PDO sutures dissolve over time, allowing new collagen to grow in their place. • This facial rejuvenation procedure is relatively quick, easy and tolerable with local numbing. Each PDO thread takes just a minute to place, with no incisions required. • You'll see an immediate result from the skin being lifted, with improvements in firmness for up to a year as new collagen develops. • Dissolvable PDO NovaThreads are less risky than the permanent sutures inserted in thread lifts of the past, which could attract infection-causing bacteria and leave scar tissue. Additionally, they are made in the United States. • If you’re not ready for a surgical facelift or require maintenance of a past surgical facelift, a thread lift is a far more affordable, less invasive option.
