Skin revitalization is non-surgical advanced light based technology that improves the appearance of unwanted brown spots, sun damage, vessels, rosacea and cherry hemangiomas. The light pulse targets dark pigmented spots, sun damage and vessels without harming the surrounding skin.
When the light is delivered to the corresponding layer of your skin the blemish being treated slowly disappears through the body’s natural healing process. It takes 30-40 days for your epidermis to completely regenerate, once the skin cycle completes new skin is less pigmented and damaged after each treatment.
The average person receives 18 unexpected hours of sun exposure a week, for this reason, we rely on our Skintel® Melanin Reader to ensure we can get an accurate reading of sun exposure before treatment. Skin safety is very important to us, the use of UVA/UVB sunscreen of SPF45+ is always recommended, especially throughout the treatment course. Sun avoidance is strongly encouraged since exposure during the treatment course may decrease the efficacy of the treatments and increase side effects.
Once skin has recovered there are many other treatments to explore if you would like to address other concerns you may have. Ask us about our Renova Rising treatment!
