 ReNewe™ Skin Rejuvenation
ReNewe™ Skin Rejuvenation with elōs™ technology procedures can gently and significantly reduce and improve the appearance of rosacea, spider veins, and other skin imperfections to return a youthful healthy appearance to aging or damaged skin.

How does ReNewe™ Skin Rejuvenation with elōs™ technology work?
The combined bi-polar radio frequency and light energies of the elōs™ technology safely and precisely target pigmented lesions, such as freckles, age marks, or sun spots. Spider veins and red areas from rosacea can also be lightened and gradually fade over time.
The RF energy will also produce a significant increase in collagen and elastin to promote a smoothing effect on fine lines and texture irregularities.
These procedures offer the highest levels of comfort, safety, and effectiveness for most skin types.

What areas can be treated?
ReNewe™ Skin Rejuvenation can be performed on the full face, neck, hands, chest, or body.

What should I expect during treatment?
The combined radio frequency and light energies will be directed at your skin through a handheld device. You will wear protective goggles, and a cooling gel will be applied to your skin. Your skin will be simultaneously cooled during treatment as well to provide additional safety and comfort.
This is a non-invasive, no-downtime procedure. Most patients tolerate treatment well; however, you may choose to apply a topical anesthetic cream and take a mild pain reliever prior to treatment. Depending on the area treated, each treatment will last approximately 30 minutes, and most of our clients resume their normal activities immediately following their sessions.
return to top
What results should I expect?
Actual results depend on your skin’s condition prior to the treatment. With most clients, imperfections and problem areas fade or disappear, and skin tone and appearance improve noticeably over the course of treatment with noticeable and consistent improvements of up to 50 to 75 percent from your baseline appearance.
ReNewe™ Skin Rejuvenation minimizes fine surface wrinkles, and it will also decrease, but to a lesser degree, deeper wrinkles.

How many treatments do I need?
This depends on the type and condition of your skin and the extent of the area you want treated. Typically, improvement is achieved in five to six treatments every three to four weeks. We invite you to schedule a complementary consultation to personalize your treatment regime.

 Chemical Peels
Chemical peels, sometimes called chemical resurfacing, are chemical treatments that can improve the appearance of facial skin. Chemical peels are used to treat sun damage, discoloration, wrinkles, and scarring. We offer a range of chemical peels from exfoliation to medium peels.
How do chemical peels work?
Chemical peels essentially cause managed injury to the skin which causes the body to produce new skin that looks better than the old skin it replaces. Depending on the depth of the peel, different combinations and strengths of chemicals are used.
Superficial peels that treat only the outer layer of the skin can help improve skin texture and appearance as well as the effects of acne scarring and discoloration. Deeper peels that affect both the outer and inner layers of the skin can reverse moderate-to-severe sun damage and wrinkles.
return to top
What should I expect during treatment?
Our treatments are administered in a clinical setting by trained medical professionals. We begin with a thorough cleansing of your skin and then apply the appropriate chemicals.
Very light peels (exfoliations) are designed to remove the dead skin cells that sit on the surface of the skin. These treatments may produce redness and irritation, but cause almost no injury to the skin.
Light peels penetrate and affect the entire outer layer of skin to stimulate the re-growth of new skin. This level of peel may produce a slight burning sensation during the procedure.
Medium depth peels penetrate the outer skin and the upper level of the inner skin (dermis) to stimulate collagen formation which plumps the skin. Patients may experience mild discomfort during this procedure which is usually well-controlled with cool compresses or topical anesthetics.
Following your procedure, your skin will show the effects of treatment. It is important to shade your face from the sun and wear sunscreen.
return to top
What results should I expect?
Results vary depending on the type and degree of skin damage. Most clients will see a noticeable improvement in the appearance and texture of their skin.
Light peels can help reduce scaring from acne and skin discoloration; results develop over time after multiple treatments. The deeper peels generally offer the most dramatic results for sun damage and wrinkling, but require longer recovery periods.

How many treatments will I need?
The number and timing of treatments depends on the type and degree of damage to your skin. We invite you to schedule a complementary consultation with our trained medical professionals where we will evaluate your skin and recommend a treatment regimen tailored to your individual goals and needs.

Microdermabrasion
Microdermabrasion is a safe, comprehensive, progressive approach to skin care that has been approved by the FDA. This non-surgical, facial smoothing treatment will enhance the condition of the skin; combat the signs of aging, and help correct sun-damaged skin.
Our medical procedures off greater intensity than at home or spa level treatments. This means that clients may experience more effective results more quickly.
Our medical professionals use baking soda rather than aluminum oxide crystals which produces the same results with less irritation and is suitable for treating lips and under the eyes.
What conditions can be improved by microdermabrasion?
Microdermabrasion can be used to improve many common skin conditions: sun damage; fine lines; wrinkles; irregular pigmentation; acne scarring, and large pores. It can also be effective in the treatment of oily skin and skin that is dry, dull, and rough.

How is microdermabrasion used to improve the appearance and condition of skin?
Microdermabrasion accelerates the cellular turnover process revealing healthier, younger- looking skin. It allows your body to gradually resurface your skin without the risks, side effects, and downtime required with more aggressive approaches.
Microdermabrasion is performed as a stream of baking soda is delivered to the surface of the skin and then removed with vacuum pressure. This process loosens old and damaged cells to reveal fresh, invigorated skin. The stimulated blood flow to the surface of the skin increases oxygenation, which speeds up cell renewal and collagen re-growth.
return to top
What should I expect during treatment?
You will be asked to close your eyes and relax in a comfortable reclining chair while a medical technician treats your face. Most people describe microdermabrasion as stimulating to the skin—like being brushed with a loofah sponge. Afterward a soothing lotion and cooling compresses will be applied to your skin.
return to top
How long does one treatment take?
Each treatment will last approximately 20 to 40 minutes.
return to top
What results should I expect after my microdermabrasion treatment?
Within several minutes of the treatment your skin may become slightly red. This reaction will subside, and within a few hours, your normal coloring will return. Microdermabrasion does not burn or cut the skin. Clients may return to their normal activities immediately. Improvements in appearance and texture will occur with successive treatments.
return to top
How many treatments will I need?
Most clients require four to six treatments spaced every two weeks to substantially reduce pore size, smooth irregularities, and even-out facial skin tone. Many people choose to continue treatments on a regular basis when they see continuous improvement in their skin's appearance.
return to top
Are there any potential side effects?
Most patients report no side effects. You may notice a slight redness or skin sensitivity, usually lasting no more than one day. You may also experience slight skin flaking three to four days after your treatment. This will disappear in a few days.
