Fractional Resurfacing

Laser resurfacing is used to target water molecules within the collagen layer of your skin. A popular cosmetic dermatology option, it triggers a healing reaction from your skin by heating it, resulting in collagen production and repair. This treatment helps treat multiple skin concerns and the effects of chronic sun damage.

Overall skin texture and tone

Chemical Peels

Chemical peels are applied like a facial. An acidic topical formula is put all over the skin to remove the damaged top layers, causing the skin to peel and grow back new without any damage. Depending on your desired results and the amount of sun damage to your skin, our Bala Cynwyd chemical peels typically require more than one treatment.

Chemical Peels are used to improve:

Sun damage
Skin texture
Hyperpigmentation

Dermal fillers are used to improve:

Definition around jawline
Plumpness in cheeks and lips
Lines around mouth

PicoLO Laser

PicoLO is a next-generation, picosecond Nd:YAG laser with wavelengths of 1064nm and 532nm designed to treat pigmentation and perform tattoo removal, scar correction, and skin rejuvenation. It utilizes picosecond laser technology that delivers ultra-short bursts of energy to the skin in trillionths of a second. The PicoLO laser pulse is so fast and powerful that it changes the way the laser delivers energy to the targeted cells. It utilizes photoacoustic impact to directly target skin blemishes, pigmented lesions, age spots, and tattoos, removing them without risking the damage which can occur with nanosecond lasers utilizing photothermal (heat) energy. In other words, instead of using heat as previous generations of lasers did — and potentially causing damage to the skin — it impacts the targeted layer of skin like a shockwave. This makes it safer to use and capable of more precise applications than earlier generations of lasers.

PicoLO can be used for a number of medical and aesthetic procedures such as the treatment of pigmentation disorders such as lentigo, melasma and freckles, reducing acne scars, fine lines and wrinkles, correcting scars, tightening pores, removing tattoos, and overall rejuvenation of the skin.
