Skin Revitalization Options
PicoSure® Laser Revitalization
PicoSure is an FDA-cleared laser treatment that delivers ultra-short bursts of energy to stimulate collagen and elastin production. It improves skin tone, texture, and pigmentation without the use of high-intensity heat. Commonly treated concerns include:
- Uneven pigmentation and sun damage
- Wrinkles and fine lines
- Acne scars
- Stretch marks
- Birthmarks
- Crow’s feet
Because PicoSure is gentle and precise, it requires no downtime and can be used on the face, hands, arms, and neck.
Sublime™ & Sublative™ Radiofrequency
These advanced radiofrequency treatments work together to improve skin tone, tighten laxity, and smooth texture.
Sublime™ combines bipolar RF and infrared light to target sagging skin, wrinkles, and laxity—particularly around the eyes, jawline, and neck.
Sublative™ delivers fractional RF energy via a grid of multi-electrode pins, stimulating collagen for improved texture, reduced acne scars, and decreased hyperpigmentation.
Both therapies encourage long-term collagen production for firmer, smoother skin and can be combined with other treatments like PicoSure for enhanced results.
TempSure® RF (Face & Body)
TempSure is a gentle yet effective radiofrequency treatment designed to tighten skin, smooth fine lines, and reduce the appearance of cellulite—without surgery or downtime. Safe for all skin types, it can be used virtually anywhere on the body, including:
- Face and jawline
- Neck and décolleté
- Abdomen and flanks
- Thighs and buttocks
- Arms and knees
By stimulating the natural production of collagen and elastin, TempSure restores youthful elasticity and firmness, making it an excellent option for overall face and body revitalization.
Icon™ 1540 Non-Ablative Fractional Resurfacing
The Cynosure Icon™ 1540 fractional laser delivers targeted, non-ablative energy deep into the skin to improve texture, tone, and scarring with minimal downtime. It’s especially effective for:
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Acne and surgical scars
- Stretch marks
- Pigmentation irregularities
- Overall skin resurfacing
Because it’s non-ablative, the 1540 laser leaves the surface layer of skin intact while stimulating collagen and elastin remodeling underneath, leading to gradual, natural-looking improvements.
What to Expect
Skin revitalization treatments are performed while you relax in a comfortable, reclined position. Depending on the technology used, you may feel a gentle warming or light pinching sensation. Most treatments take 15–45 minutes, with little to no downtime afterward.
Results: Many patients notice improvements after just one session, though 2–4 treatments may be recommended for optimal results.
Maintenance: Some results, such as acne scar reduction, can be permanent. For ongoing concerns like wrinkles or pigmentation, your provider may recommend maintenance sessions every 6–12 months
