Skin Treatments
Chemical Peels
Chemical peel treatments use the natural healing properties of your skin to bring blemish-free, smooth, and soft skin textures to the surface. As the acid and other chemical agents remove the surface layers of the skin, your skin will peel and regrow rejuvenated.
There are several chemical peels offered at our practice, and our care ensures you will be educated on each one to find what is right for you.
Clinical Facial
Clinical facials involve clinical treatments seamlessly combined with relaxing facials that are custom-designed just for you. Deep pore cleansing, exfoliation, hydration, massages, scrubs, sun protection, and more are offered with our treatments.
Whether you’re struggling with large pores, oily skin, acne, ‘bacne’ (back acne), or acne scarring, our clinical facials clarify and nourish the face and/or back.
Dermaplaning
Dermaplaning facial treatment scrapes away the surface layers of skin to reveal a nourished and youthful appearance with less prominent fine lines, scars, and wrinkles. Often performed before chemical peels, dermaplaning carefully amplifies the results of other facial treatments by removing the dull outer skin layers and allowing products to reach the deeper layers of skin.
Dermaplaning is gentle enough to be performed monthly and can be locally applied to specific areas or the whole face.
Micropen Microneedling
Microneedling with the Eclipse MicroPen® uses your body’s natural healing process to deliver targeted regrowth and repair to the collagen and elastin in your skin. Precise pricks to the dermis and epidermis stimulate your skin’s curative properties and increase blood flow to reverse the signs of aging. This treatment also allows skin care products to absorb and penetrate deeper for increased efficacy.
The results of a MicroPen® treatment can be seen in just one to two weeks, making this an ideal treatment for those wanting quick results.
Microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion treatment loosens the outermost layer of skin and removes dead cells to improve skin tone and texture. This painless treatment relieves the skin of scars, large pores, dark spots, blackheads, whiteheads, and more.
Skin Tag and Milia Removal Los Angeles
Remove round skin bumps from your body forever with our painless skin tag and milia treatment. Low-level, high-frequency electrotherapy runs over the surface of the skin, gently pricking away the skin growths on contact.
Injectables
BOTOX® Cosmetic
BOTOX® Cosmetic (onabotulinumtoxinA) relaxes the muscles in the forehead and around the eyes to prevent them from contracting and causing wrinkles and fine lines. This FDA-approved cosmetic treatment is extremely effective for reducing glabellar lines between the brows, crow’s feet at the outer corners of the eyes, and horizontal wrinkles across the forehead.
BOTOX® can also relieve patients who have severe sweating, as injections in problem areas can stop or slow down acetylcholine, the substance in our sweat glands that tells our bodies to sweat.
Dysport®
Dysport® has been FDA approved for use in the United States since 2009. Dysport® is similar to BOTOX® Cosmetic but has a slightly faster onset, with results becoming apparent in one to two days. Dysport® offers natural-looking results that last up to four months.
XEOMIN®
XEOMIN® is similar to BOTOX® Cosmetic and Dysport®, and it contains the same active ingredient – botulinum toxin A – to paralyze the muscles and smooth wrinkles. XEOMIN® is FDA approved for improving the appearance of moderate to severe glabellar wrinkles (frown lines between the eyebrows). Results from XEOMIN® typically become noticeable in three to four days and last for about three months.
JUVÉDERM®
JUVÉDERM® is an FDA-approved injectable dermal filler made of hyaluronic acid, a natural substance found in our bodies that adds volume to the skin. When combined with water and other cross-chemical modifications, hyaluronic acid can effortlessly smooth and fill the skin.
JUVÉDERM® plumps the skin to reduce wrinkles and correct age-related volume loss in the cheeks, around the nose and mouth, and in the lips.
RADIESSE®
RADIESSE® injectable treatment stimulates the body’s natural collagen growth, which enhances the skin’s elasticity and fullness. This non-toxic, non-allergenic filler is comprised of calcium hydroxyapatite (CaHA), which is a phosphate and calcium combination that naturally occurs in the body. CaHA stimulates collagen growth and mimics tissue connectivity for a revitalized, fresh, and youthful appearance.
RADIESSE® is an essential choice for those looking to fight wrinkles and volume loss on the hands, folds around the mouth and nose, and facial fat loss that has created hollows and depressions.
Restylane®
Restylane® is an injectable that uses non-animal stabilized hyaluronic acid to promote collagen and hydration for plumper, fuller skin.
This FDA-approved filler can smooth folds and wrinkles around the mouth, plump the lips, restore volume to the cheeks and hands.
Laser Treatments
JuVaShape™ Body and Face Treatment
Treat cellulite, wrinkles, and unevenness in skin texture with the innovative technology found in JuVaShape™ radiofrequency. Delivering concentrated and controlled thermal energy, JuVaShape™ heats the tissue at various depths, triggering the contraction of collagen bands for tighter, firmer, more youthful skin.
This painless, zero downtime experience only takes an hour of your precious time, making JuVaShape™ one of the easiest skin tightening and smoothing treatments in modern cosmetics.
Laser Hair Removal
We offer our patients the latest in hair removal technology with Super Hair Removal™ (SRH™) by Alma™ Laser. The Super Hair Removal™ uses proprietary technology that targets a wide range of hair and skin types with quick, painless treatment that produces highly effective results. The laser penetrates the skin for hair follicle elimination without causing any damage to the epidermis (top layer) of the skin.
This laser hair removal treatment makes waxing and plucking obsolete and gives patients an innovative option that is convenient and cost-effective.
Tattoo Removal
Tattoos can be artistic and adorn our bodies, but mistakes and regrets do occur. Laser tattoo removal thoroughly accounts for the complex nature of your tattoo’s colors, shapes, sizes, and effects on the skin.
The Harmony XL Pro Q-switched Nd:YAG laser delivers short pulses to break apart tattoo ink, making the removal of these mistakes quicker, easier, and more comfortable than ever before.
Laser Skin Resurfacing
Laser skin resurfacing treatments harness the power of our newest technologies to restore the surface of the skin from years of damage caused by the sun, scars, and other abrasions. With virtually no downtime and the ability to be universally applied to areas of the body, laser resurfacing uses a flexible array of techniques to serve your individual needs. Restore coloration, smooth texture, and reduce scarring with short treatment times and little to no pain.
Vascular Lesion Treatments
Vascular lesion laser therapy uses heat and light energy to reduce the appearance of spider veins, port-wine stains, cherry angiomas, and other conditions caused by the formation of blood vessels beneath the skin.
The Alma™ Dye-VL module uses Advanced Fluorescence Technology™ (AFT), the next generation of intense pulsed light (IPL). This offers shorter treatment times with safe, effective results, as the narrow wavelength precisely targets the melanin in the blood vessel.
