RF Facial Tightening Accent Radio frequency skin tightening is a non-surgical approach to tightening skin as well as some of the deeper skin structures. Accent Radio frequency uses energy to create a field of deep dermal heating. The heat is of a therapeutic nature, which causes both immediate and delayed collagen improvements. The immediate improvements are a result of existing collagen contraction. The delayed improvements are due to the induction of new collagen formation. This process is considered a nondowntime procedure. There is generally no injury to the skin's surface. It is normal to see some redness and mild swelling for a day or two after this procedure. This treatment is usually takes one to two times normally 4 weeks apart. Please call to schedule a FREE consultation. Remember to be specific about what your expectations are.

The techniques used and the machines used have evolved over time, and this dimpling is now a rare occurrence. Please contact us immediately if you feel you are experiencing any of the described side affects.
Electrolysis Electrolysis hair removal is the only method approved by the FDA for permanent hair removal.

Even though electrolysis is most effective it can only be used on small areas due to the fact that the technician treats one hair at a time. This treatment is however does not target pigment therefore can be used on ALL skin and hair colors. How Does it Work? An electric current is applied with a very fine filament electrode smaller than that of the hair shaft, into each hair follicle to destroy the root. There are two techniques used most often. The first is thermolysis which uses heat decomposition to destroy the root. The second is called The Blend which is used on more stubborn resistant hairs. This method uses heat as well as a chemical decomposition which takes the salt and water in the root to create an active Multiple treatments are needed! Clients have to commit to electrolysis.

Pixel Resurfacing Pixel skin resurfacing is a safe and effective procedure for all skin types. The indication for this treatment include sun damage, acne scarring, uneven skin pigmentation and fine lines and wrinkles. In short, Pixel creates tiny perforations (micro injuries) to the skin stimulating a perfect healing process, providing you with a renewed, youthful and even complexion. Pixel works by creating an ablative and thermal effect on the treated area ( a micro injury ) without disrupting the surrounding skin. It is in these microinjured areas that the healing process occurs creating new collagen, tightening skin and improving texture. - Dr. Daniel Lazari The client can expect to feel sun-burned feeling on the area treated and may use maxilene to numb the area. Although these symptoms are normal and indicate an effective treatment they should subside quickly. The appointment process takes approximately 30 minutes. The number of treatments will vary based on the individual need. Due to the fact that the laser is taking off the first layers of the epidermis there is down time of a few days to a week after the treatment. The clients skin will appear to have a grid pattern on the service as well as stay a reddish brown color. The use of Intensive moisture as well as gentle cleansing gel by PrFx is highly recommended to see optimal results. Schedule your FREE consult today to begin your road to re-texturing your skin.
Microdermabrasion Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive "mechanical" exfoliation treatment that removes the outermost layer of dead skin cells on the face, chest, or neck. This is done using a diamond tip or corundum crystals along with vacuum suction to sweep away the dead skin and helps with circulation. When the skinʼs surface is disrupted, cell division occurs which stimulates fibroblast activity leading to collagen production. This in turn leads to thicker, firmer younger looking skin. The suctioning and vacuuming stimulates blood flow bringing up oxygen and nutrients to the skin's surface, helping to nourish the dermis. Our skin sloughs off at a slower rate with age, so the exfoliation of several layers of the stratum corneum leaves skin fresh and radiant. Treatments are recommended every 3-4 weeks in a series of 6 for correction and every 6-8 weeks for maintenance or prevention Chemical Peel A mild chemical peel is a non-invasive treatment for restoring wrinkled, blemished, unevenly pigmented, or sun-damaged facial skin. Chemical peels can be used on any area of the body, with the most common areas being the face, back and chest. A chemical solution is used to gently loosen the skin's damaged outer layers so that they may exfoliate naturally. Fresh, new skin is revealed underneath and collagen is stimulated during the healing process to produce a smoother, tighter, younger-looking skin surface. A peel does not eliminate sagging or excess skin. Chemical peels are most commonly performed for cosmetic reasons -- to enhance your appearance and your self confidence. The procedure takes approximately 40 minutes, mild redness and tingling will develop, lasting up to a few hours. Light peeling will begin within two to five days, and it is very important not to pick at any loose skin but to allow it to gently come off on its own. It is very important to protect this new skin with daily sunscreen application. Peels are generally administered every two to three weeks, in a series of six treatments.
Photofacials Photo rejuvenation with the Harmony AFT is a treatment utilizing intense pulsed fluoresced light to effectively treat rosacea, facial flushing, red chests and necks, sun damage and irregular skin pigmentation in all skin types. Photo damaged skin with hyper pigmentation (brown spots), skin laxity, enlarged pores, wrinkling, and telangectasia (veins) can be improved. The short wave length light is used to rejuvenate skin of the face, neck, chest, arms or hands. These treatments receive a high degree of patient satisfaction because there is generally no downtime, discomfort is minimal, and treatments are easy. The average client needs 6 to 8 treatments depending on the severity of the case. Treatments are done on average every 4 weeks. Photofacials take care of any pigmentation problems and have the added advantage of collagen induction, which helps remove unwanted fine lines. It is a low risk, high return procedure that has our cliens coming back for more! -Dr. Adriaan Viljoen Blue Light Treatment Blue light treatment is a superficial laser used to help reduce mild to moderate acne, a condition affecting millions of teens as well as adults. On average blue light can clear 70-90% of moderate inflammatory acne in as little as 6 months when used in combination with an appropriate at home regime. Unfortunately there are many causes of acne. Some such as hormonal imbalances which are beyond our control and although the laser will help to eliminate bacteria causing the acne it is not a permanent solution. Regular maintenance appointments are recommended as well as the use of specially designed natural medical grade skin care products by PrFx. Check!t Follow!r clients TRANSFORMATIONS to see blue light
Botox Facial expression lines are created by contractions of the underlying muscles, pulling the skin together when you smile, laugh or frown. An injectible protein, called Botox, gently relaxes these muscles that cause the overlying skin to fold and crease wrinkles. A minute quantity of the Botox protein is injected into the wrinkle with a tiny micro-needle. The treatment itself generally requires less than 10 minutes. Within three to five days following the treatment, your worry, frown or laugh lines are reduced. The ongoing progression of the wrinkle will be prevented during the course of the treatment. Dermal Filler Wrinkles of the lower face are common and bothersome to many people. We frequently address problems such as these wrinkles and loss of fullness in areas such as the lips and cheeks by using an injectable filler. These fillers are made of a substance called Hylauronic acid. It is a lab-made substance, which is similar to human collagen. It does not come from any animal, unlike ʻCollagenʼ brand and no skin testing is required. It lasts four to seven months for most individuals. Check!t current Specials to see Me#cal Days $% mon$!
