How It Works

We offer two different laser hair removal options including true laser and IPL. Our IPL is used on lighter skin types and our Long Pulsed 1064nm Nd: Yag laser is used on darker skin types.

Your hair removal sessions should be booked six weeks apart for a total of 6-8 sessions.

Each treatment time could last as little as a short few minutes to up to an hour, depending on the size of the treated area and condition being treated.

What It Does

Laser technology has proven to be the safest and most effective form of tattoo removal.

Our laser is designed to create ultra-short pulses of light energy that shatters all colors of ink in a tattoo.

Depending on the size of your tattoo, treatment can take as little as a few minutes.

How Our Advanced Tattoo Removal Services Work

Opt for a fresh start with our professional tattoo removal services in Harlingen, TX. At our clinic, we provide a safe, efficient, and compassionate tattoo removal process that highlights the importance of tattoo wellness.

Your Comfort is Our Priority

Before commencing the tattoo removal, we prioritize your comfort by applying a topical anesthetic cream to the skin. This step ensures a smoother, less discomforting treatment process, aligning with our commitment to enhance your tattoo wellness experience.

Unleashing the Power of Laser

Our expert practitioners use a state-of-the-art laser applied directly onto the tattoo. This process creates a distinctive “frosting” effect that temporarily results in a white discoloration. The laser energy penetrates your skin, gradually breaking the tattoo ink into smaller particles that your body’s immune system can naturally clear away.

Care Post-Treatment

Post-treatment, we apply an antibiotic ointment and gauze to the treated area, aiming to prevent infection and promote healing. This careful and mindful process underscores our commitment to tattoo wellness and ensuring your skin’s protection post-procedure.

Your Journey To Recovery

Typically, your recovery after each tattoo removal treatment will take about one week. During this period, we encourage patients to rest, refrain from direct sunlight exposure, and rigorously follow the aftercare instructions provided.

A Series of Treatments for Optimal Results

Clients generally require a minimum of six treatments, spaced 4-6 weeks apart, to ensure effective tattoo removal at our Harlingen, TX clinic. The exact number of sessions and the spacing between them depends on various factors, including the tattoo’s size, color, location, and the individual’s skin type.

CO2 Fractional Laser

The core of the CO2 Fractional laser aims to rejuvenate and improve the overall texture of patient’s skin. The delivery of the CO2 fractional laser ensures minimal downtime.

Resurfacing removes layers of skin tissue in a fractionated method (columns of skin are removed, leaving the skin surrounding each column intact to aid in healing) to help reduce “age-spots”, fine lines, wrinkles, scarring, uneven coloration, skin laxity, textural irregularities, dull tone, and a thinned collagen layer of the face, neck, and chest.

CO2 Fractional laser is the best treatment if you wish to get the most results with one treatment for your skin. Aggressive treatments can take about one week to fully heal, and having this one treatment is like having multiple other non-invasive treatments at once. It is also the best single treatment for advanced skin damage and wrinkling.

Results that are expected are a very significant and noticeable reduction in the components of sun damaged skin. The skin will continue to improve for a period of 6 months following the procedure provided proper skincare is used and sun exposure is minimized.

What It Does

We use the Nd: Yag Laser for toe fungus removal. The laser light penetrates through the nail and soft tissue to kill fungus and promote new nail growth.

How It Works

In clinical studies there have been no adverse reactions, injuries, disabilities or known side effects. The clinical studies, done in 2010, reveal that over 68-80% of treated patients show significant nail improvement with one laser treatment.

Duration:

The treatments typically take about 15 minutes. Sessions are spaced 1 month apart for 3 months.

Nail Growth:

As the nail grows slowly, it can take approximately 6-12 months for the new nail to replace the old one.

There are thousands of products and procedures marketing to women to help them hold on to youth as long as they can. Vaginal rejuvenation falls into that category.

Estrogen deficiency leads to a variety of physical changes of the vulva, vagina and lower urinary tract. These can include vaginal dryness, burning, irritation, lack of lubrication, painful intercourse, as well as urinary symptoms of urgency, painful urination and urinary tract infections. Vaginal discomfort and urinary incontinence can also occur in pre-menopause and after childbirth. These symptoms are chronic in nature and may worsen with time jeopardizing sexual function and the quality of life.

The CO2 fractional laser gently and painlessly acts on the vaginal walls through a special scanner. This action creates controlled micro-lesions that are required for the production of new collagen which treats the components of the vaginal mucosa and the urogenital structures.

A tissue regeneration process lasting numerous weeks is triggered with each laser treatment. Significant improvements can be seen even after the first treatment: the vaginal mucosa becomes more nourished and hydrated and the epithelium becomes thicker, more toned and elastic. The correct vaginal pH becomes re-established, which helps maintain its natural protective barrier and reduces the risk of infection. Enhanced vaginal tissues at the urethral opening may reduce problems with incontinence and improve sexual function. However, laser vaginal rejuvenation in itself cannot guarantee a heightened sexual response, since desire, arousal and orgasm are complex, highly personal responses.

For best results, we recommend 2-3 treatments that are 4-6 weeks apart, followed by one treatment every 6 months for maintenance.
