Laser, Light and Ultrasound
Intense Pulse Light (IPL)
IPL treatments, sometimes referred to as “photo facials,” use gentle pulses of intense, optimized light to treat undesirable benign brown pigment, photo-aged skin, and redness which can occur as a result of aging and lifestyle choices. It can be used to help restore collagen as well.
IPL is offered in our Johnson City and Kingsport Cosmetic Centers.
Laser Hair Removal
More and more people desire to have permanent hair reduction. This treatment is effective, fast and comfortable. Laser light targets the pigment in the hair bulb, causing long-lasting hair reduction of pigmented hairs. Treatment requires a series of four to six treatments, then maintenance at three to six month intervals.
Laser hair removal is offered in Johnson City, Kingsport and Bristol Cosmetic Centers.
PiQo4 (Pico)
This advanced laser treatment works with your skin to stimulate deep collagen regeneration over a sequence of treatments. After the first treatment, you may begin to notice improvement in skin texture and pigmentation.
PiQo4 (Pico) is offered in our Johnson City Cosmetic Center.
