Skin Rejuvenation Q & A
What is skin rejuvenation?
Skin rejuvenation focuses on improving the tone and texture of your skin to fight the effects of aging. As you get older, your skin becomes less firm and dry because your body doesn’t produce as much collagen and elastin as it did in your youth.
The providers at Favia MediSpa use the Harmony laser system by Alma™ to address a variety of common skin flaws, including:
- Wrinkles
- Fine lines
- Large pores
- Uneven skin tone
- Hyperpigmentation
- Coarse or uneven texture
The providers customize a treatment plan to your skin’s unique needs and your aesthetic goals.
What happens during a skin rejuvenation treatment?
Skin rejuvenation involves nonsurgical, noninvasive laser treatments that improve the health and appearance of your skin. You don’t need anesthetic medications during treatment and can expect to relax while you lie comfortably on a table.
The Favia MediSpa providers use the Harmony® XL Pro laser system’s select handpieces that deliver either infrared or fractional ablative laser energy into your skin without damaging the tissue.
Infrared lasers target the tissue beneath the surface of your skin to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, the two essential proteins of healthy skin. As new collagen grows, it helps smooth out your skin to erase wrinkles and fine lines and promote natural-looking, more youthful skin.
The fractional ablative laser handpiece penetrates more deeply into your skin to boost your skin's overall elasticity and health. This handpiece can treat hyperpigmentation and increase the moisture content of your skin.
What are the benefits of skin rejuvenation?
Suppose you’re unhappy with the appearance of your skin but you aren’t ready for surgery. In that case, the skin rejuvenation services available at Favia MediSpa can help you achieve your aesthetic goals without downtime.
After your laser treatment, you can go right back to your usual activities without limitations. There’s some risk for redness and swelling immediately after your procedure, but these issues resolve on their own in just a few days.
With laser skin rejuvenation, you can avoid the risks of complications that come with any type of surgery. The providers can use the Harmony® XL Pro laser technology to stimulate your body’s natural healing abilities to enhance the vitality of your skin and replenish collagen you lose with age.
Favia MediSpa also sells Alastin® Skincare products in-office and online to moisturize and nourish your skin to keep it feeling soft and young-looking.
