Laser Treatments

Laser Treatment

Laser skin treatments have evolved significantly over the past decade.  Laser treatment uses both heat and light as energy source targeting different layers and cells of the skin to achieve even skin tone, reduce fine lines, promote neocollagenesis (formation of new collagen) and treat scars.  Based on individual needs we can do complete skin resurfacing or target therapy such as for Melasma.  Our Lasers are FDA approved for all skin types. 

• What is fractional skin laser treatment?
  

Fractional laser drives thousands of individual columns of light (about width of a hair) deep into the skin, leaving the remaining skin to stimulate collagen – the basic building blocks or structural support of the skin.  The microscopic columns of treated skin are eliminated slowly over many weeks s they are replaced by healthy new tissue.  Fractional laser can target approximately 5% to 20% of the skin at the time, leaving the remaining % developed quickly to the treated areas.  Fraction laser treatments at precise safe and effective form delicate skin areas like neck chest and hands including face.  At Kiranlife we offer the state of the art PiQo4 laser which is FDA approved for all skin types for skin resurfacing and targeting pigment.

• How may sessions will I need to see results?
  

Depending upon new skin cancers and footwear treating you may require 1-5 sessions approximately 4-6 weeks apart for best results.  

• How long will each treatment take?
  

Each session is 30-45 minutes, depending on the area we are treating.  An additional 70 minutes will also be added to your treatment time. An acetic cream application further treatments and cooling is applied at the end of the treatment. 

A topical aesthetic is applied prior to the area to be treated. The aesthetician maps out the area to be treated then moves treatment head over the entire area in a pattern delivering the precise amount of energy and coverage for your specific concern.  After the treatment, a gentle post laser moisturizer and sunscreen is applied.  Mineral make up can also be applied to cover to improve redness.

• What to expect after the treatment?
  

Immediately after the treatment your skin will become red, much like a sunburn, this can also be accompanied by some mild swelling in the case of deeper treatments.  In some cases you may experience a sensation of heat for an hour or so after the treatment:  Applying an ice pack to your skin will help relieve this.
