NeoSkin by Aerolase® Melasma and Hyperpigmentation
NeoSkin by Aerolase® allows patients of all skin types to comprehensively improve their melasma and hyperpigmentation. As a multi-factorial condition that can involve epidermal melanin, dermal melanin, and a vascular component, melasma typically requires a complex treatment regimen to achieve improvement and minimize recurrence. The Neo’s 650-microsecond laser energy is delivered into the dermis and epidermis to break up melanin deposits while shutting down vasculature and inflammation. Due to the unique parameters of the Neo’s energy, treatment is highly tolerable with minimal risk of adverse effects.
It is important to remember that melasma is a chronic skin condition and cannot be eliminated, only improved. The appropriate treatment of melasma with laser devices must be accompanied by strict sun avoidance, sun protection and medical grade skin care that targets pigmentation pathways in your skin cells.
Aerolase® Neo melasma treatments typically take 15-20 minutes. Neo melasma treatments are safe, effective, and tolerable for all skin types and all forms of melasma. Treatment may be performed without any skin cooling, anesthetic, and even without the need to touch the skin.
NeoSkin by Aerolase® Rosacea, Redness, Spider Veins and Angiomas
NeoSkin comprehensively addresses rosacea, redness, veins, and broken capillaries. A common condition with skin aging is the appearance of redness and formation of veins and broken capillaries in the skin. Rosacea is a chronic disorder that is characterized by facial flushing and with time the gradual development of persistent facial redness and spider-like blood vessels. It is often punctuated by episodes of inflammatory papules (bumps), pustules (pimples), and swelling. The Aerolase® Neo effectively addresses redness, rosacea and blood vessels with deep-penetrating energy that suppresses the inflammation causing the redness. It also coagulates the unwanted veins and broken capillaries, which are then gradually cleared by the body’s natural immune response. This treatment sequence is effective at improving the appearance of spider veins and other vascular lesions.
NeoSkin by Aerolase® Rejuvenation and Tightening
NeoSkin’s 650-microsecond energy targets water in the dermis to stimulate collagen production, which improves skin texture related to acne scars, fine lines, visible pores and tightens skin. Then, if present, NeoSkin targets melanin and hemoglobin to clear brown pigment, clear vascular lesions, and suppress inflammation. This NeoSkin treatment is a quick, tailored treatment to address each patient’s specific needs.
As skin ages there can be many changes that occur. Skin quality can worsen with enlarged pores, texture, and lax skin. Unwanted conditions such as redness, veins, sun damage, and age spots may show up. Acne may follow through adulthood. Whether you are looking to restore your clear, youthful skin or prevent signs of aging, NeoSkin can help achieve your skin goals. First,
NeoSkin treatments typically take 25-30 minutes depending on what conditions need to be addressed and how large the treatment area is (face, neck, chest). Treatment is highly safe, effective, and tolerable for all skin types and may be performed without any skin cooling, anesthetic, and even without the need to touch the skin.
Pseudofolliculitis Barbae
PFB (Pseudofolliculitis Barbae, i.e. ingrown hairs, razor bumps or beard bumps) is an irritating condition that is commonly caused by shaving. It often appears in patients of darker skin types, including tanned skin and skin types IV through VI. The laser selectively targets melanin in the underlying hair and follicle, as well as hyperpigmentation surrounding the lesion. Due to Aerolase® lasers’ unique short pulse technology the energy passes through the skin quickly and does not overheat the epidermal melanin to effectively treat the condition.
