Dermaplaning is a delicate way to exfoliate your skin, removing the fine hair commonly referred to as “peach fuzz”, producing a smooth texture and an appearance of fresh skin.

Conditions Treated:

  • Unwanted Hair
  • Dry Skin
  • Poor Skin Texture

What to Expect?

Dermaplaning is a simple, easy, painless, non-invasive manual skin exfoliation treatment.
The dermaplaning treatment takes approximately 30 – 45 minutes depending on the area being treated.
This treatment can be performed at any time of the year on all skin types and there is no discomfort with this treatment.

HydraFacial addresses all skincare needs. From fine lines and wrinkles, elasticity and firmness, even skin tone and vibrancy, skin texture, brown spots, oil and congested skin, or enlarged pores, Hydrafacial treats it all and can benefit anyone!

HydraFacial is an invigorating treatment that can be given in as little as 30 minutes. It delivers long-term skin health and can be tailored to meet the specific needs of all skin types. It offers instant, noticeable results with no downtime or irritation. The HydraFacial treatment removes dead skin cells and extracts impurities while simultaneously bathing the new skin with cleansing, hydrating and moisturizing serums. The treatment is soothing, refreshing, non-irritating and immediately effective.

You may put on makeup and return to your normal activities right after the treatment since there is no downtime. Many clients report seeing visible skin refinement and an even, radiant skin tone after just one treatment. The smooth results and hydration may last 5 to 7 days or even longer. One treatment per month is recommended for improving the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, brown spots, oily and congested skin. Continued HydraFacial treatments are highly recommended to maintain skin health results.

SkinPen is the first FDA-cleared microneedling device. It causes controlled micro-injuries that stimulate your body’s natural wound healing process, while minimizing cellular damage.

SkinPen is:

Natural. SkinPen is a micro-needling tool that uses sharp needles to create tiny holes in your skin. In response to these micro-injuries, your body produces collagen and elastin to heal the wound naturally. SkinPen doesn’t use chemicals, heat or toxins to burn or remove layers of your skin.
Safe and relatively comfortable. There are minimal side effects and downtime following a SkinPen procedure. Slight swelling and redness/pinkness in the area (like that from a mild sunburn) usually last only two to four days, so you can return to work or social activities quickly. SkinPen has minimal risk of scarring or infections. We will apply a topical anesthetic before the procedure, making you comfortable.
Versatile. SkinPen can be used to improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and facial acne scars. SkinPen needles adjust to different lengths, allowing us to customize your procedure based on skin’s thickness and your specific needs.
Effective for all skin types. Because SkinPen doesn’t affect the epidermis (where the skin pigment resides), it can be used on all skin types.

PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) is an excellent all in one solution to help decrease the signs of antiaging. PRP is a revolutionary way to harness the body’s own rejuvenating healing power to generate new healthy tissue in conjunction with SkinPen.

After a simple blood draw, PRP uses the patient’s own plasma that is taken from your arm, spun in a centrifuge and then microneedled into your skin. PRP is a safe, FDA-approved solution to bring back elasticity and volume to your skin. The skin will repair quicker than with Skinpen alone and it will progressively improve in tone and texture in the following weeks post procedure.

As we age our bodies begin to break down collagen leaving our skin saggy and loose. For those who want to make improvements to this skin but are nor ready for surgical or ablative procedures we offer skin tightening with the Candela YAG laser therapy at our Jasper location and with the Cutera Excel V Laser at our Birmingham location.

The laser gently penetrates the deep layers of the skin and subcutaneous tissue. This treatment can be performed on any area of the body and all skin types.

How It Works

This laser works by safely heating up the treatment area, which in turn activates new collagen formation. This “thermal damage” stimulates your body’s natural healing ability resulting in tighter, younger looking skin. Added benefits are improvement in erythema, pore size, skin texture and tone.

What to Expect

Full results are typically seen between 90 days to 6 months following your last treatment but initial effects may appear in as little as 1 to 2 weeks. There is very minimal downtime with this procedure. Mild redness may be noticed immediately following the treatment but resolves within a few hours. Tiny imperfections in the skin may gradually surface and flake off over the next few days leaving the skin feeling soft and clean. Treatments should be done in a series of 4 to 6 sessions and done 3 to 4 weeks apart.

Risk

The risk are minimal but there may be some pigment alterations, especially in dark skin types following the treatments. This usually corrects itself without further aid. Occasionally blistering and scabbing can occur especially on darker pigmented lesions. These areas should be kept moist and protected from the sun.

Prior to Treatment

Avoid sun exposure 7 days before and after treatment. Tan or sunburned skin will not be treated.
No chemical tans can be applied prior to treatments.
Do not take photosynthesizing medications during treatment series.
Patients with active infection cannot be treated.
