Nd-YAG stimulates the re-growth of natural collagen for reducing wrinkles. Collagen is crucial in contributing to the volume of our skin. However, as we age, collagen is lost resulting in wrinkles and fine lines. When new collagen is generated, both fine lines and wrinkles are reduced. This procedure can be used for the face, hands, neck and chest areas.

HOW MANY TREATMENTS DO I NEED?

Depending on the area of treatment and type of wrinkle to be treated, most clients will need between three to four treatments. At times you may need more treatments, depending on the individual and their condition. Periodic and occasional maintenance treatments may be needed for long-lasting results.

While you may experience some level of discomfort from the laser pulses, your therapist will offer various ways to make you feel comfortable, for example – by providing cold air to flow over the area needing to be treated.

HOW WOULD I FEEL/LOOK IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE SKIN REJUVENATION TREATMENT?

Immediately after the procedure, you may experience some redness, swelling or slight darkening of pigmented areas. These symptoms are usually resolved within one to three days. However, darkened pigmentation may persist and peel lightly for up to one week. Nevertheless, you can apply makeup to the treated area, immediately. We recommend a moisturiser with at least an SPF30+ sun block and to avoid exposure from the sun to prevent additional damage.

Depending on the size of the treatment area, the treatment can take between 20 to 30 minutes.

WHEN CAN I EXPECT TO SEE RESULT?

After the initial treatment(s), you will see improvements as broken capillaries, small facial veins and some pigmented areas within a few days. Other improvements such as wrinkle reduction and toning, may take between one to three months. With each subsequent treatment, subtle changes will accumulate until you have achieved the improvement you desire.
