Now there is a new laser that dramatically improves tone, texture and tightness in just one treatment.  The Center is pleased to introduce ActiveFX and MaxFX treatments using the UltraPulse Encore Laser which is a CO2 Aesthetic Laser system. This laser outperforms the Fraxel laser getting even better results with less downtime and fewer treatments.   

Active FX reduces fine lines, wrinkles, and sun damage while stimulating collagen growth which progressively tightens sagging skin. The full effect of the laser resurfacing treatment emerges over a three month period.    This procedure is performed under topical anesthesia.

MaxFX, the same treatment performed at full power using PK anesthesia, is a surgical laser skin resurfacing procedure recommended for patients with more severe sun damage, deep lines, wrinkles and signs of aging. This procedure can be performed under local anesthesia or with PK anesthesia.  

ActiveFX and MaxFX fractionalize the treatment area to target portions of the skin while leaving some areas untouched.  This technique promotes faster healing and enables deep penetration of the skin and maximum heating which delivers the desired results.  This laser treats the face, upper eye lids, arms, neck and chest. These procedures produce the greatest results at the best price since only a single treatment is required.

Get Lasting Results with New ArteFill Dermal Filler

Recently approved by the FDA, ArteFill® is a safe and permanent injectable wrinkle filler used to treat smile lines.  With one or two treatments, depending on the depth of wrinkles and folds, most people get the results they want.  Instead of making an ongoing investment in a more youthful appearance, ArteFill gives you lasting results. It is the only permanent injectable filler on the market today.

ArteFill is a simple, in office injectable procedure that gives you immediate, visible results with no downtime.  ArteFill® contains PMMA microspheres and purified bovine collagen gel with an anesthetic for comfort during injection. ArteFill is dual-acting. First, it visibly corrects the wrinkle. Then the microspheres provide the permanent support your skin needs for enduring wrinkle correction.

The device gently applies suction to the area of skin being treated. By flattening the skin and pushing blood away from the treatment zone, it activates a natural pain blocking mechanism. This process also enables better light penetration and improves the effectiveness of the treatment. At the same time the device reduces the potential for bruising.

Patients who come to the Center for laser hair removal, tattoo removal, skin tightening, and IPL photo facial treatments will benefit from this new device. Patients report pain levels dropping from a 7 to a 2 on a scale of 1 to 10, making it easier to tolerate a series of treatments.
