The colder months may bring a chill in the air, but they also usher in the perfect opportunity to indulge in rejuvenating laser treatments that will give your skin a glow even in the coldest season. In the Louisiana Aesthetics and skin care, our team of highly skilled treatment providers meet with you one-on-one to develop a customizable treatment plan based on your specific skin care needs. Here’s why now is the perfect time to schedule an LAS consultation.
Laser treatments are most effective when a patient is free from sun exposure for several weeks and plans to avoid being in direct sunlight for a few weeks after treatment. This can be difficult during the summer months. During the winter months, however, the sun’s UV rays are not as strong, and people also tend to be home from vacation and not spend much time around the pool.
LAS, which employs four licensed estheticians and two nurses, offers a range of face and body treatments, including laser skin resurfacing treatments, using the most advanced laser technology developed by Sciton. All treatments are customizable and may include a combination of Sciton’s BBL, Halo and Moxi lasers.
To ensure the most effective treatment for your skin’s unique needs, LAS offers free consultations before you schedule a treatment. “We’re results-driven, but we’re also focused on safety,” says family nurse practitioner Chelsea Commander.
What you need to know about Sciton laser treatments:
BBL – BroadBand Light, or BBL, is the gold standard for treating skin conditions related to aging, sun damage, and acne. This versatile laser effectively targets unwanted brown and red pigmented areas, including freckles, age spots, cherry angiomas and rosacea, as well as dull skin, acne and the appearance of loose skin.
BBL works on most skin types and requires no anesthetic prior to treatment. Treatment time is between 10 and 20 minutes and there is no downtime. Winter is an ideal time for BBL treatments as sun exposure is minimized, reducing the risk of post-treatment pigmentation.
Moxie – For those looking for a gentle yet effective treatment, Moxi works wonders in improving skin texture, minimizing fine lines and promoting collagen production. It is also safe to treat melasma. Moxi treatment times are also short, about eight to 10 minutes. A local anesthetic is applied before the treatment.
Moxi’s fractional non-ablative technology allows for quick recovery (makeup can be worn 24 hours after treatment), making it a convenient option for radiant skin that shines even in the harshest winter light. Noticeable results can be seen in five to seven days.
Halo – Combining ablative and non-ablative wavelengths, Halo effectively treats fine lines, wrinkles, sun damage, scar revisions and more. Treatment time is slightly longer – between 15 and 30 minutes – and downtime is three to five days. A local anesthetic is applied before the treatment. Remarkable results appear in just one week.
