In the dynamic world of aesthetic medicine, laser technology stands out as a powerful tool for rejuvenating skin, addressing imperfections, and achieving lasting smoothness. At NewSkin in Bellevue, we harness the most advanced laser systems to offer our clients a tailored approach to skin health and beauty.
Whether you're looking to reverse signs of aging, clear up hyperpigmentation, reduce redness, or say goodbye to unwanted hair, there's a laser treatment designed for you. This comprehensive guide will walk you through the cutting-edge laser options available at NewSkin, helping you understand their benefits and decide which is best for your skin goals.
The Power of Light: How Laser Treatments Work
Laser treatments use focused light energy to target specific concerns in the skin. Different wavelengths of light are absorbed by different chromophores (targets) in the skin—like water, melanin (pigment), or hemoglobin (red blood cells). This selective targeting allows for precise treatment without damaging surrounding tissue. The controlled energy stimulates the body's natural healing process, promoting collagen production, destroying unwanted pigment, or disabling hair follicles.
Discover Your Perfect Laser Treatment in Bellevue
At NewSkin, we pride ourselves on offering a diverse range of state-of-the-art laser treatments. Here's a look at our popular options:
1. Sciton Halo™ Hybrid Fractional Laser: The Gold Standard for Rejuvenation
The Sciton Halo™ is a revolutionary hybrid fractional laser that combines two types of lasers (ablative and non-ablative) into a single treatment. This allows for unmatched customization, effectively treating both the surface and deeper layers of the skin simultaneously.
- What it treats: Sun damage, fine lines, wrinkles, uneven tone and texture, enlarged pores, scars, and hyperpigmentation.
- Benefits: Delivers dramatic results with significantly less downtime than traditional ablative lasers. Patients experience improved skin quality, reduced discoloration, and a more youthful glow.
- Recovery: Mild redness and swelling for a few days, followed by microscopic epidermal necrotic debris (MENDS) that gives the skin a "bronzed" look before peeling.
2. MOXI™ Laser: The Gentle Glow-Up
The MOXI™ Laser is a gentle, non-ablative fractional laser designed for all skin types, all year round. It's perfect for those new to laser treatments or looking for a "prejuvenation" solution to maintain radiant skin with minimal disruption.
- What it treats: Early signs of sun damage, uneven tone, texture, and light pigment. It's also excellent for preventing future damage.
- Benefits: Quick, comfortable treatments with minimal downtime. It helps revitalize and refresh your skin's appearance, delivering a radiant glow.
- Recovery: Mild redness that typically resolves within hours. You can apply makeup immediately and resume normal activities.
3. Clear Silk™ / Clear V™: Targeting Redness and Pigment
These advanced Sciton treatments are powerful tools for addressing vascular lesions and unwanted pigment.
- Clear Silk™: Utilizes BBL technology to gently heat the upper layers of skin, stimulating collagen production and reducing diffuse redness and fine vessels. It creates a vibrant, even skin tone.
- Clear V™: Specifically designed to target visible vascular lesions like spider veins, cherry angiomas, and persistent redness (rosacea). It also effectively treats deeper pigment concerns.
- Benefits: Non-invasive, virtually no downtime, and highly effective for improving skin clarity and evening out complexion.
- Recovery: Minimal to no downtime. Some redness may occur, and pigmented spots may temporarily darken before fading.
4. CO2 Laser Resurfacing: Deep Renewal for Dramatic Results
CO2 Laser Resurfacing is an ablative laser treatment considered the gold standard for dramatic skin rejuvenation. It precisely removes outer layers of damaged skin, stimulating intense collagen production and revealing fresh, new skin.
- What it treats: Deep wrinkles, severe sun damage, significant textural irregularities, acne scars, and sagging skin.
- Benefits: Delivers unparalleled results for significant skin concerns, offering profound skin tightening and smoothing.
- Recovery: More significant downtime (typically 1-2 weeks) compared to other lasers, involving redness, swelling, and peeling, but the results are equally dramatic and long-lasting.
5. Laser Hair Removal: Permanent Smoothness
Tired of shaving, waxing, and plucking? Laser Hair Removal offers a long-term solution for unwanted hair on virtually any part of the body.
- How it works: The laser emits light that is absorbed by the pigment in the hair follicle, converting to heat that damages the follicle and inhibits future hair growth.
- What it treats: Unwanted hair on the face, underarms, legs, bikini area, back, and more.
- Benefits: Significant and permanent reduction in hair growth, leading to smoother skin and freedom from daily hair removal routines.
- Recovery: Mild redness and sensitivity, similar to a sunburn, for a few hours. Multiple sessions are required for optimal results.
