Laser Treatment Pricing
Due to the fact that laser procedures are contingent on patient’s skin type, size of the area, and concerns, we ask you to come in for a consultation. After this assessment, we will be able to better address your needs and price out the best package to yield the most optimal results.
*We offer 0% financing for 6 and 12 months through Care Credit for Laser Treatments.
1540 Skin Resurfacing Pre and Post Care Instructions
PRE-CARE
Beginning 3-4 weeks prior to treatment:
- Avoid sun exposure or tanning beds.
- Discontinue the use of topical exfoliating agents (Glycolics/ Alpha or Beta-hydroxy acids).
- Discontinue retinoid medications e.g. Retinol, Tretinoin (Retin-A/Atralin), Adapalene (Differin), Tazarotene (Tazorac), etc. and OTC anti-aging products contain retinol or retinaldehyde.
POST-CARE
- Avoid heat and cool the skin during the first day of treatment.
- Application of cool gel packs and appropriate topical creams (if directed) immediately following treatment can help alleviate post-treatment itchiness and tingling that may occur.
- SPF 30 or higher containing UVA/UVB protection with sun blockers such as zinc oxide or titanium dioxide are recommended up to 6 months following the last treatment.
- Gentle cleansing and the use of non-irritating cosmetics are permitted after treatment (as directed by the physician).
- Those prone to acne outbreaks should avoid heavy makeup or moisturizers for 24 hours post-treatment.
- Following a more aggressive treatment, it may be helpful to use some topical moisturizer or therapy (if directed) on the skin during the healing process to help minimize trans-epidermal water loss to reduce dryness or crusting.
- To help remove debris and bronzing of skin that can appear 1 to 4 days after treatment, soak treated areas for 5 to 15 minutes with a wet washcloth, and then gently remove debris. Do not pick at or scrub the treated areas as this can result in scarring.
- It is suggested that retinoids (Retinol, Retin-A, Atralin, etc.) be discontinued 1-2 weeks prior to the initial treatment and throughout the course of treatment. The use of retinoids during the treatment course may result in undesirable side effects and prolonged healing.
STRETCH-MARKS & SCAR TREATMENTS
- Avoid tight-fitting clothes around the treated areas for three (3) months after the last laser treatment.
- Those being treated may experience significant redness, broken capillaries, and bronzing in the treatment area for approximately 3-5 days after treatment. This may persist in a mild form for several weeks, particularly in areas other than the face.
- Once the treatment area has healed, some itching or dryness may occur. This will gradually clear. The use of non-irritating moisturizers may provide some relief.
Post Procedure Solution is recommended with this treatment.
