Whether you are committed to a full-time job or a stay-at-home mom, you will no doubt find a treatment or combination of treatments to indulge in at our SkinPresence MedSPA Laser Center.

All of our Sciton Laser treatments, peels, and facial fillers are targeted for women on the go, designed to improve appearance with a short treatment time and little or no downtime. Here’s a brief run down of the rejuvenation options offered here.

SkinTyte™ Photofacial Therapy

Light energy is used to stimulate damaged skin cells and restore a smoother, more uniform complexion.

Sciton MicroLaser Peel™

The Sciton MicroLaser Peel is a facial renewal treatment that refines the epidermal skin layer. This effective peel is personalized to improve the look of wrinkles, scars, keratoses, and pigmentation problems.

Sciton ProFractional™

ProFractional is a minimally invasive laser resurfacing solution for sun spots, age spots, uneven pigmentation, acne scars, wrinkles, and stretch marks.

Sciton Broadband Light™

Sciton’s “BBL” treatment lets you improve your skin condition without the discomfort or downtime of more invasive options. Using Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) technology, Dr. Aycock can create visible improvement in your complexion, targeting blemishes, discoloration, and other skin irregularities.

Laser Hair Removal

This clean, virtually pain-free hair removal method is far more time-efficient than repeated shaving and plucking. The laser targets hair follicles during strategic growth phases to provide long-lasting, smooth results.

Laser Skin Resurfacing

Wrinkles, sun damage, age spots, spider veins, and other skin imperfections are no match for our laser skin-smoothing treatments.

Chemical Peels & Facials

Safe acid solutions remove damaged skin while facial treatments replenish and restore nutrients for a healthier appearance.

BOTOX®

BOTOX is the king of wrinkle reduction — perfect for temporary wrinkle softening.

Facial Fillers

Fillers like Juvederm®, Restylane®, and Radiesse® can provide a more youthful, softened facial appearance without the need for invasive surgery.

All treatments at SkinPresence MedSPA Laser Center are performed by highly trained, experienced Aesthetic Nurse Specialists and Medical Aestheticians who provide customized care in a relaxing environment.

You may have read about the incredible Sciton Laser, an innovative tool used to refine facial imperfections and enhance complexion, in a previous blog. Now, we would like to highlight the facial treatment called SkinTyte™ Photofacial Therapy, a nonsurgical skin enhancement that uses the light energy of the Sciton Laser to improve skin laxity and refresh skin appearance.

What is SkinTyte?

SkinTyte is a non-invasive treatment that is safe to use on a wide variety of skin types. Pulsed infrared light is combined with advanced cooling technology to target damaged tissue below the skin’s surface. The underlying collagen is gently stimulated into contraction, resulting in a tightened effect. While the dermal collagen layers are warmed, outer layers are simultaneously cooled, effectively minimizing discomfort and protecting surrounding skin. Anesthesia is rarely needed; however, a mild topical cream may be used to ensure comfort.

When is SkinTyte Recommended?

SkinTyte works well for patients with sun damaged skin or premature signs of aging, and it is also a great option for minimizing facial redness. If you have acne scars, Rosacea, hyperpigmentation, or fine lines, this might be the perfect treatment for you. Generally, patients enjoy an overall younger appearance after their sessions, though it may take three to six months to realize the full results. SkinTyte is most often used on the face, but can also be applied to the neck, chest, abdomen, arms, and hands. For best results, most individuals will require two to five sessions, spaced three to four weeks apart.

Your cosmetic surgeon may recommend SkinTyte as a freestanding treatment, before or after a face or neck lift surgery, after chemical peels or BOTOX®, or in combination with microdermabrasion and other facial rejuvenation sessions.

How Can I Learn More?

Renewing your skin’s appearance is simple and affordable with the incredible SkinTyte treatment. If you would like to learn more and find out if you are a candidate for this and other noninvasive skin care options, please contact Dr. Robert Aycock today or find him on Facebook under Bay Area’s Premier Aesthetic Surgery and Laser Center.

If you are searching for a non-invasive way to enhance your skin condition without significant discomfort or downtime, the revolutionary Broadband Light (BBL) treatment can deliver incredible results.  This state-of-the-art treatment is also easy, affordable, and highly effective for treating many different skin imperfections.

How BBL Improves Facial Appearance

Broadband Light is an Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment that creates visible improvement using targeted laser energy. During a BBL treatment, the Sciton Laser is used to refine facial imperfections and enhance complexion, leaving skin refreshed and healthier. Light energy is delivered to the damaged skin cells in a precise, gentle treatment that requires no anesthesia. The top layers of skin are warmed, and skin cells are stimulated as they absorb heat. In minutes, irregular spots, acne, and discoloration can be minimized, creating a more attractive look and texture.

BBL patients love the fact that they don’t have to miss work or other important activities after a treatment. You can expect a slight skin darkening after your session, followed by a gradual skin lightening. The result is younger-looking, glowing skin that can lead to a more self-confident you!

Skin Problems Treated With Broadband Light

BBL may be used to treat a variety of skin issues, including age spots, freckles, hyperpigmentation, rosacea, and facial spider veins, among others. This safe procedure is most commonly used to improve facial appearance, although other body areas like the neck may be treated, as well. Your skin type and condition will determine the outcome of your BBL treatments, so it is important to come in for a confidential consultation before scheduling your first session.

Your Personalized BBL Treatment

After a thorough skin analysis, Dr. Aycock will make his personal recommendation for enhancing the tone and texture of your skin. You may need multiple BBL treatments to achieve the desired degree of skin refinement. If you like, Broadband Light can be combined with other nonsurgical facial rejuvenation treatments for an amazing, vibrant appearance enhancement.
