Acne/Scar
Treatment

You will have an agent applied to your skin at the spa. It will be left on for a few minutes and you may feel slight tingling. Some peels will need to be neutralized with a second agent and some won’t. Like anything, depending on the patient, the strength of the peel, the post-procedure hydration and the phase of the moon, everyone will have different amounts of peeling and some people may not notice any peeling at all.

This depends on the type of peel. You will usually have peeling and flaking of the skin for about three days to one week, after which time you will begin to see the new, fresh skin begin to regenerate.

Results are quite varied and depend upon the patient, how many times you have had it done and what we are treating. You can expect results to last anywhere from two months to two years. The more you baby your skin, the longer your results will last.

Face, neck, décolleté, back and buttocks are the most common areas.

You will be numbed and receive some medications to help keep you comfy during the procedure. As we are removing a layer of skin, you can expect some downtime for about 10 days.

You will already notice some improvement within the first few weeks as the skin regrows, but final results will be apparent closer to three to six months.

They are permanent! Because we are removing the old skin and replacing it with brand-new skin, for many and most clients this is a once-in-a-lifetime treatment

For our deep resurfacing, we usually limit treatment to face (face has the most blood flow and heals up the fastest). A lot of our clients choose to treat only around their mouth to target their (non)smoker's lines. For the lighter laser peels, we can treat just about any body area!

You will be numbed with some wonderful topical numbing. As we treat, you will titrate your own comfort with laughing gas in one hand and refrigerated air in the other. Many clients do fine with just the numbing, but it’s nice to have options!

Usually within a week of fractionated treatment skin already feels amazing and makeup goes on smoother! And within a few months, collagen generation begins (the gift that keeps on giving)!

Results are permanent, but as you’re probably aware, you will continue to age.

Face and neck are most popular, but it is also amazing to help with scarring anywhere on the body (goodbye, surgical scars!).

You will wear a numbing cream for 45 minutes. Following this, we then inject additional numbing solution for optimal comfort. A small needle is inserted into the skin and a quick RF current is generated. Most clients are quite comfortable for the procedure, which, depending on the area, usually takes about 20-30 minutes. You will be slightly swollen (but it often actually looks kinda nice) and perhaps slightly bruised when you leave. All things considered, downtime is minimal.

Some people will see results almost immediately, as the fat is melted during the treatment! Collagen generation speed is slightly different for everyone, but peak results should be about three to six months after your last session. We usually recommend about two treatments, depending upon the area.

Results are permanent! Like anything, you will probably want to do some periodic maintenance.

Any small area you need skin tightened, fat melted, or both. Think: upper and lower eyelids, smile lines, jowls, double-chin, turkey neck and buccal fat (Hello, Bella Hadid!).
