Laser Hair Removal in San Antonio

Age Spot Removal

Age spots are a cosmetic concern for many patients. They can occur on nearly any part of the body, and are often something patients want removed whether or not they bother him or her.

What to expect: Our Alexandrite laser reduces the appearance of brown spots from sun damage. This treatment takes just a few minutes, with little to no pain. Many patients are happy with one to two Alexandrite laser treatments for smaller brown spots.

Facial & Spider Veins

Facial and spider veins are small red, purple or blue vessels that develop in the face and legs. These tiny broken veins in the face cause a persistent flushed looked and have the visual effect of aging the face.

What to expect: Our GentleMax pro has an applicator to treat small vessels on the face and legs. In just 1 treatment, you will see the veins magically disappear. During your appointment, your skin will be cleaned and you will be given protective eyewear. You’ll feel a cool sensation from the gel applied and many patients refer to the pain as similar to the snapping of a rubber band against the skin. Side effects from a Candela GentleMax treatment are minimal, due to the laser’s patented Dynamic Cooling Device (DCD) technology, which not only protects the outer layers of your skin with a cooling burst of cryogen, but also leads to increased patient comfort for the duration of the procedure. Some patients might experience some redness and swelling, but this will go away within a few days. To minimize these or other minor side effects that could occur, patients should avoid going in the sun or using abrasive cleansers immediately after treatment. Results are permanent and immediate, although some patients may have skin that is prone to these broken vessels, resulting in newly formed veins in the future. We recommend an extra level of protection with sunscreen and hats to help maintain your cleared skin.

Intense Pulsed Light therapy (IPL)

IPL is a safe, non-invasive treatment that using multiple wavelengths of intense pulsed light to treat and tighten the skin. This laser is used for rosacea (including redness and broken blood vessels), sun damaged skin, brown spots, photoaging and broken capillaries (“spider veins”). Treatment is typically done on the hands, neck and chest. IPL also stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, plumping your skin to turn back the hands of time.

During your appointment, your skin will be cleaned and you will be given protective eyewear. You’ll feel a cool sensation from the gel applied and many patients refer to the pain as similar to the snapping of a rubber band against the skin. Side effects from a Candela GentleMax treatment are minimal, due to the laser’s patented Dynamic Cooling Device (DCD) technology, which not only protects the outer layers of your skin with a cooling burst of cryogen, but also leads to increased patient comfort for the duration of the procedure.

To minimize these or other minor side effects that could occur, patients should avoid going in the sun or using abrasive cleansers immediately after treatment. To achieve the best results, patients typically complete a series of 3-6 monthly treatments and then return for a maintenance treatment once or twice a year.

Laser Hair Removal

Unwanted hair is a problem for both men and women. Laser hair removal is a simple and fast way to permanently reduce or remove facial or body hair. During laser hair removal, a laser emits a light that is absorbed by the pigment (melanin) in the hair. The light energy is converted to heat, which damages the tube-shaped sacs within the skin (hair follicles) that produce hair. This delays or stops future hair growth.

What to expect: Treatments are done in office by one of our trained professionals and usually requires a series of 5-6 treatments. The interval between treatments will vary depending on the location and desired outcome. For each treatment you’ll wear special goggles to protect your eyes from the laser beam. Depending on the type of laser, a cooling device on the tip of the instrument or a cool gel is used to protect your skin and lessen the risk of side effects. You might feel discomfort, such as a warm pinprick, and you’ll likely feel a sensation of cold from the cooling device or gel.

Our Candela Gentle Laser Pro is for all skin types. We are able to treat light, medium and dark skin tones. This works well on any hair that is medium brown to dark black. It does not work on blonde or gray hairs. Our Diode Laser is best for fair to medium skin. Schedule an appointment with our staff to determine if you are a good candidate for laser hair removal and which laser is right for you.

Varicose & Spider Veins

Varicose veins are large, swollen veins that often appear on the legs and feet. They occur when the valves in the veins no longer work properly, causing the blood to flow less effectively. Spider veins are smaller vessels that are typically visible on the legs and face. Age, pregnancy, obesity, lots of standing and heredity are some common factors that play a large part in the development of varicose and spider veins.

What to expect: Our Gentle Max pro has an applicator to treat small vessels on the legs. In just 1 treatment, you will see the veins magically disappear. During your appointment, your skin will be cleaned and you will be given protective eyewear. You’ll feel a cool sensation from the gel applied and many patients refer to the pain as similar to the snapping of a rubber band against the skin. Side effects from a Candela GentleMax treatment are minimal, due to the laser’s patented Dynamic Cooling Device (DCD) technology, which not only protects the outer layers of your skin with a cooling burst of cryogen, but also leads to increased patient comfort for the duration of the procedure.
