CosmedicDerm uses the Clear + Brilliant resurfacing laser, Fraxel Rejuvenation laser, GentleYag Hair Removal Laser System, GentleLase and the Candela TATULAZR.

What are my Laser Therapy Options?

Clear + Brilliant Resurfacing Laser

Clear + Brilliant Gentle Laser Resurfacing is a fractional laser device that addresses the early signs of aging or can be used as a skincare maintenance tool. This laser treatment is performed in a series of six sessions with minimal downtime.

Lumenis PiQo4

We’re excited to offer the Lumenis PiQo4 laser treatment, a cutting-edge solution for various skin concerns. This advanced laser is designed to help you achieve clearer, more radiant skin with minimal discomfort. The PiQo4 is versatile, tackling issues like unwanted tattoos, dark spots, and uneven skin tone. What makes this laser special is its ability to work on all skin types, from fair to dark. It uses ultra-short pulses of light energy to break down pigment beneath your skin, whether it’s tattoo ink or age spots. The treatment is quick, with most sessions lasting only about 20 minutes. Many patients see improvements after just a few treatments, though the number of sessions you’ll need depends on your specific skin concerns. With its advanced cooling system, the PiQo4 keeps your skin comfortable during the procedure, and there’s typically minimal downtime afterward.

Fraxel Rejuvenation Laser

Fraxel Rejuvenation laser addresses the whole spectrum of aging skin concerns with a method that is customized to each patient’s needs, requiring minimal recovery time. The “smart scanning” handpiece ensures consistency and safety, while fractional lasers penetrate the top skin layers. Fraxel light energy stimulates collagen and resurfaces the top layer of skin.

SplendorX Hair Removal Laser System

The SPLENDOR X laser by Lumenis is a new and improved way to remove unwanted hair. It uses two different types of light beams that work together to target hair on all skin colors, even tanned or darker skin. What makes this laser special is its square-shaped light spot, which covers your skin evenly without missing any spots or overlapping too much. This means your treatment can be faster and more comfortable than with older lasers. The SPLENDOR X has a built-in cooling system to keep your skin feeling comfortable during the treatment, so you might not even need numbing cream. Besides hair removal, this versatile laser can also help with wrinkles, visible blood vessels, and dark spots on your skin. With its speed and comfort features, the SPLENDOR X aims to make your laser treatments quicker and more pleasant.

LegendPro Microneedling

The Legend Pro uses a combination of technologies to address various skin concerns, including fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin. This innovative treatment combines radiofrequency energy with ultra-thin needles to stimulate your skin’s natural healing process and boost collagen production. What’s great about the Legend Pro is that it can be customized to your specific needs, treating both the surface and deeper layers of your skin for comprehensive results. Many patients appreciate that the treatment is comfortable and requires minimal downtime, allowing you to return to your daily activities quickly. Whether you’re looking to tighten loose skin, improve skin texture, or reduce the appearance of scars, the Legend Pro offers a versatile solution. With its ability to treat multiple areas of the face and body, this treatment can help you achieve a refreshed, more youthful look from head to toe.

Nu Era Tight

Nu Era Tight is a non-invasive skin tightening treatment that uses multiple RF frequencies to target different layers of the skin depending on the condition of your skin. By heating the skin inside out and out, Nu Era Tight lifts and tightens the skin to treat skin laxity, wrinkles, and cellulite. A minimum of six treatments is needed for optimal results but after the series of procedures is complete, you can enjoy a refreshed, youthful look for years to come.

SmoothGlo

SmoothGlo is designed to tackle the three main signs of aging skin all at once: uneven tone, texture, and loss of volume. This innovative treatment says goodbye to those pesky age spots, unwanted redness, and stubborn wrinkles that can make you look older than you feel. What’s great about SmoothGlo is that it combines different technologies in one session, giving you dramatic results without the need for multiple separate treatments. Many patients see a significant improvement in their skin’s brightness and overall youthfulness after just one SmoothGlo session. The treatment is quick and comfortable, with minimal downtime, making it perfect for those with busy lifestyles who want to refresh their look.

Downtime & Side Effects

Downtime will vary greatly depending on the type of laser treatment that addresses your skin concerns. None of above lasers have drastic downtime due to their gentle, yet effective light energy that targets the intended area without affecting the surrounding area. With skin resurfacing, depending on the depth of the treatment your skin will be red and slightly inflamed right after treatment but that should subside within 3-5 days and will continue to heal for a few weeks. With hair reduction lasers, downtime is quite minimal because the laser is attracted to the pigment of the hair and leaves the surrounding area alone.
