 LASER FACIAL TREATMENTS A Laser Facial Treatment, also known as IPL Photo-rejuvenation, photofacial or fotofacial, is a non-invasive skin health and restoration treatment that erases the damage inflicted on your skin from sun, aging and biological factors, as well as relieves Acne and Rosacea. The technology supplies a very specific filtered spectrum of light which reaches deep down within the skin, targeting pigment and vascular imperfections. The results are a more even skin color and texture. Our cosmetic laser corrects a variety of skin conditions such as brown spots and redness, while offering a safe, non-invasive solution that can be tailored to your individual condition and skin type. We can treat imperfections on the face as well as the neck, chest and hands, and any other part of the body, for that matter. After a series of treatments, our clients report a marked improvement in the texture of their skin and reduced pore size. This occurs because the treatments also stimulate the production of collagen. With a series of treatments, we can help restore your skin to a more youthful appearance without the prolonged recovery. Our AFT laser is one of the most common technologies used to treat Rosacea. After a series of treatments, this technology can significantly reduce the redness and visible blood vessels on the face. Treatments are comfortable and performed without downtime.
What conditions can our cosmetic AFT Laser system treat? We successfully treat a variety of conditions on the face, neck, chest and hands, including: • Rosacea • sun damage • flushing • skin texture • redness • broken capillaries • brown spots • age spots • sun-induced freckles on the hands, chest, and face • broken capillaries around the nose • fine lines and increased pore size • ruddy skin
Who performs the treatment and what is the treatment like? In contrast to many facilities, at Cascada Spa only fully qualified, licensed and certified estheticians and skin care specialists perform these treatments. The procedure typically takes 20-30 minutes and is well tolerated. Occasionally we will use a topical numbing agent before the treatment. During the treatment, light energy is delivered to the skin through a series of gentle pulses and is accompanied by our cryogenic cooler to keep you cool and comfortable during the process.
How many treatments are required and at what interval? Is follow up necessary? The number of treatments required depends on several factors including skin tone and the extent of pigmented and vascular lesions and the degree of sun damage that exists. Typically a minimum of three treatments (range 3-5) are performed at monthly intervals for optimal results. After your initial series of treatments, it is possible to require a follow-up treatment in two or more years. Patients with Rosacea may require regular maintenance treatments, frequency depends on the severity of the condition. We will educate you in ways of caring for your skin to help diminish the need for future treatments.
What can I expect to see after treatment and is there downtime? Recovery with Photo rejuvenation is minimal. Your face may be mildly red for several hours after the procedure but this will subside. Pigmented areas on your skin will become darker initially, and then flake off over the following week. You should be able to resume all of your regular activities immediately. By dividing the full program into several treatments, the procedure provides progressive improvement with very low risk. You will need to avoid the sun as much as possible before and after the treatment, and no treatment should be provided if your skin is tanned. Sunscreen with a minimum of SPF 40 should be utilized daily, at all times of the year.
