Through the advancement of technology, we can now utilize lasers for cosmetic purposes like eye surgery or skin rejuvenation. Lasers near your eyes or face may sound questionable, but the procedures provide long-term benefits. At our MediSpa, we offer a non-surgical, minimally invasive laser treatment that improves the appearance of your skin called LimeLight Photo Facial.

This procedure uses an intense pulsed light device that penetrates the surface layers of skin to target the cells that need to be treated, without harming the outermost cells. The sensation you feel during the procedure is similar to a rubber band lightly tapping against your skin. LimeLight Photo Facials help improve:

Redness and Rosacea
Brown Spots and Sun Damage
Uneven Skin Tone
The Appearance of Enlarged Pores
The Appearance of Fine Lines & Wrinkles

After the treatment, you might feel like you have a mild sunburn. This typically passes within the next few hours but could last 1-2 days, depending on your skin. Aloe Vera and cool compresses help reduce any swelling or redness you may experience after treatment. Light-based treatments are among the safest skin procedures because they target only the cells that need to be treated. Call one of our certified physicians and we’ll examine your skin and make sure a Photo Facial is the best method for you for skin rejuvenation.
