| Procedure |
 |
Thermascan treatment uses an infrared laser to rejuvenate your skin from the inside out. The laser energy delivered by the Thermascan penetrates into the upper layers of your skin. The energy absorbed by the targeted areas stimulates the fibroblast cells in your skin to begin generating collagen. At least 6 treatments are needed to stimulate new collagen growth and most people will begin to see benefits by the fourth treatment.
Thermascan laser treatment is gentle and non-invasive. There should be minimal discomfort. You may feel a warming of the skin or a rubber band snap like sensation as the procedure is performed. However, this varies from patient to patient and depends on the depth of the treatment. A topical anesthetic cream can be used on extra-sensitive areas. However, no injections are needed.Your eyes will be protected with safety shields or glasses. Your procedure should take between 15 and 30 minutes depending on the size of the area to be treated.
| Recovery |
 |
There is virtually no downtime associated with the procedure. Makeup can immediately be applied. No wound is created, therefore, no healing time is required. Results vary depending on your condition, number of treatments and area treated. Your physician will provide you with complete information about the post treatment effects and results.
| Results |
 |
Collagen and elastin fibers continue to multiply after your treatment, and you
will see improving results over the months ahead. This treatment helps restore
your skin to its natural beauty, making it softer, smoother and more vibrant.
We recommend regular touch-up treatments to sustain the continued growth of new
collagen as you age. To receive the optimum result, we will customize a skin
care product regimen for you to enhance and maintain your skin.
