The Smart Skin CO2 Laser (Fraxel)

Better than Fraxel, this advanced micorablative technology allows your skin to heal in a fraction of the time because we are not ablating the entire skin surface all at once.

Non-ablative Laser Skin Resurfacing by Palomar works on many skin types, including very light and very dark skin. Non-ablative resurfacing can improve fine lines and wrinkles, help the most challenging scars including acne scars, and address texture, pores, and tone, all with minimal downtime and just a few treatments.

Chemical Peel - Example VI PEEL
Chemical Peels continue to be the golden standard in cosmetic enhancement of facial skin. Chemical peels have been performed for many years by ancient Egyptians. They used particles of alabaster mixed with milk and honey to abrade facial skin to create tightening. In Egypt, Cleopatra was known to bathe in sour milk, while French women have applied fermented wine to their faces to improve the quality of their skin.

Chemical peels have become more popular as a less drastic way to exfoliate facial, neck and decollate skin ares by removing the outer layer of skin to reveal the smoother, newer skin underneath. People of all skin types can benefit from al chemical peel to give them the appearance of younger, healthier skin.

SilkPeel™ (Microdermabrasion) Treatment

SilkPeel™ is a breakthrough system that combines precision non-invasive exfoliation with Dermalinfusion™, deep delivery of skin-specific solutions, to improve and revitalize the skin. SilkPeel is unique because it does not use crystals or other abrasive particles that can irritate the skin like most microdermabrasion treatments.
