Services
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL)
Intense Pulsed Light is also known as photorejuvenation. IPL technology is a non-invasive treatment used to treat the visible signs of aging. IPL can be used to diminish slight skin surface imperfections such as large pore size, fine wrinkles and elastic skin changes. IPL improves the appearance of facial redness caused by superficial capillaries and most brown pigments including sun-induced freckles and melasma. With a series of treatments, IPL can improve overall skin texture, tone and clarity giving the skin a more youthful appearance.


Medical Microdermabrasion
Medical Microdermabrasion is a simple procedure that provides effective exfoliation and rejuvenation of the skin. It is a non-surgical exfoliating procedure for revitalizing the skin. It helps diminish fine lines and reduces the appearance of superficial skin damage from aging and the sun or hyperpigmentation. Microdermabrasion requires no recuperation time and is safe to use on all skin tones and types.
Laser Hair Removal
Laser Hair Removal uses laser or light (thermal) technology that targets pigment in the follicle of unwanted hair. Laser Hair Removal is the best treatment for permanent hair reduction. It is less time consuming and less painful than waxing or electrolysis. All skin types can be treated for hair removal, but deeply tanned skin is not recommended. Ethnic skin types are safely treatable.


Botox
Botox is a formulation of botulinum toxin type A. More than 100 years of research have expanded our knowledge of the botulinum toxin type A. Botox has been used for the past 11 years for treating over reactive muscles with over 1 million patients worldwide.

Botox treatment is a painless procedure that improves the appearance of facial wrinkles and expression lines. A few injections of Botox relaxes the active muscles whose repetitive contractions cause the skin to crease. Once the muscles are relaxed, the skin becomes smoother, creating a natural, relaxed appearance.

The Botox injection will start to work within seven days. The results will last 3-6 months depending upon your individual results. Our skin care staff perform all procedures and will determine your course of treatment.
Restylane
Restylane is a safe and natural cosmetic filler that restores volume and fullness to the skin to correct moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, especially around the nose and lips.

Restylane is the first and only cosmetic filler that is made of non-animal based hyaluronic acid. It is a natural substance that already exists in the human body so there is no allergic reaction to Restylane. Restylane usually lasts 6 months.

Restylane differs from Botox because Restylane is a natural, cosmetic filler. Botox is a drug that blocks nerve transmission and relaxes the underlying muscles. Many patients have been pleased after receiving treatment with both products.
Visia Digital Skin Analysis
SkinCeuticals
VISIA™ Digital Skin Analysis is an exciting technological innovation that uses a multi-spectral imaging system to identify problem areas of your complexion, allowing for a customized skin treatment program that specifically targets these areas.

The VISIA Digital Skin Analysis is the first diagnostic tool to provide clinical measurement of surface and subsurface epidermal irregularities and pigment conditions. VISIA’s photographic technology captures a clear, multi-dimensional image of select facial areas, while examining the severity of various age-related conditions such as:
  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Hyperpigmentation (age/dark spots)
  • Enlarged pores
  • Skin tone evenness (color variation)
  • Porphyrins (evidence of bacterial growth)
  • Sun damage (UV spots)
SkinCeuticals
At The Skin Care Center, we recommend that a Digital Skin Analysis be performed during your initial one-on-one Skin Evaluation, as the results of the analysis provide the framework for creating a personalized facial rejuvenation programs that are designed to obtain optimal improvement in your skin color and texture. In some cases, an additional analysis may be performed following a recommended treatment program. Once your VISIA imaging session is complete, our medical esthetician will provide you a detailed complexion report that focuses on specific problem areas, compares your results with others your age, and includes treatment recommendations specifically for your complexion.
Facials/Peels
We offer facials and chemical peels customized for you at the time of your consultation. Our qualified staff assists you in defining your skin care objectives and develops a treatment plan to help you achieve your goals.
Glycolic Acid (chemical) Peels
As part of our practice, we offer a therapeutic skin care regime to our patients including the use of glycolic acid peels. Glycolic acid has been clinically proven to smooth and rejuvenate the skin, improve texture and remove fine lines. It has also been used to treat dermatologic conditions such as acne, sun damage and precancerous skin lesions called actinic keratoses. Research has shown that glycolic acid modifies the outer layer of the skin called the stratum corneum by acting as a mild exfoliant. The glycolic peel is performed in the comfort of our office. For optimal benefit, one of our esthetician will determine the right peel and frequency for each patient.
Make-Up
We offer Glominerals Make-Up to our clients. Glominerals is a make-up system uniquely formulated for skin care professionals. Glominerals is a clinically advanced mineral make-up that provides good coverage and helps correct and protect the skin.
