Anti-aging medicine is laser technology
One of the fastest-developing areas of anti-aging medicine is laser technology. There are so many things that lasers can do to make patients look younger and better quickly, without the risks and downtime of traditional surgery. Most of the laser procedures we offer can be scheduled within a “lunchtime” session, where the patient can return to work or their day within an hour or two.
Five of the hottest laser procedures we offer here in Newburgh, Indiana are laser skin resurfacing, laser hair removal, cellulite reduction and skin tightening, IPL photo facials, and Zerona body slimming. Although we have many patients who come in just to have these laser procedures in the Evansville area, we also have weight-loss patients who want to maximize their results and look and feel their best while dropping pounds.
First off is laser skin resurfacing, which was performed over 430,000 times in the United States in 2009, according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. We use a laser called the Pixel Perfect, which provides dramatic improvements in the texture and tone of our patients’ skin. It diminishes wrinkles, fine lines and acne scars while stimulating new collagen to grow under the skin, so the benefits continue to accrue months after the treatment. The best part is that it requires very little downtime compared to other lasers. For more information, visit here.
For our patients who have skin imperfections and blemishes from broken capillaries, melasma, brown spots, and the like, an Intense Pulsed Light photo facial, or IPL treatment, can do the trick. This treatment requires zero downtime, and can be completed in as little as 15 minutes. IPL treatments for the neck, face, and décolleté area are all common.
According to the Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, cellulite occurs naturally in roughly 80 to 90% of women after puberty. Based on our before/after cellulite and skin tightening pictures, we have a great solution with the Accent XL. It takes about three to five 45-minute treatments spaced two weeks apart to treat cellulite anywhere on the body. These treatments do not hurt or require any recovery time. As you can see here, this is great for toning and firming skin, whether it’s from natural aging or after weight loss.
The most common areas treated for cellulite and skin tightening with the Accent XL are the legs, buttocks, stomach, and around the eyes and neck.
Laser skin resurfacing is great for refreshing one’s skin, IPL reduces the appearance of blemishes and imperfections, and the Accent XL can tighten loose skin. Since they all require almost no downtime, many patients are finding that they can save time and money by combining them into “Laser 360” complete skin program in Evansville.
Patients can come in for all 3 sessions in one session, once a month, with a cleansing microdermabrasion between treatments. This requires almost no downtime and provides a non-surgical facelift with just four quick office visits over two months.
For people needing fat removal where diet and exercise have failed, our Zerona laser treatments are a great alternative to liposuction. Zerona is available right here in Indiana after being touted nationally by The Doctors on CBS and Rachel the Rachel Ray show.
Our patients have dropped two to seven dress or pant sizes with Zerona, which is a non-invasive laser therapy that attacks fat storing cells, causing fat to melt away with about six 40 minute treatments, scheduled every other day. It is completely pain free. Patients can return to regular activities immediately, and is regarded as a safe alternative to liposuction, lipodissolve, and heating devices such as the Velashape or Thermage, which can cause discomfort.
The Zerona is well-suited to be paired with the Accent XL for skin tightening. Many of our weight loss patients prefer this option for a final push to maximize their results. Patients can treat any sagging skin and nagging cellulite with the Accent XL while the Zerona LipoLaser zaps away the final inch or two that they want to lose.
