The IPL laser will improve skin tone as well as treat multiple facial conditions such as pigmentation caused by sun damage, age spots, rosacea and spider veins. Recovery is quick, allowing you to return to work with little or no downtime. This treatment is versatile and can be used on the face, neck, chest and other areas.
This non-invasive process helps fade unsightly vessels in just a few treatments. Following this laser skin treatment you may find that the vessels may disappear, darken or shrink, and the surrounding skin may turn pick and be slightly swollen for up to 24 hours. A series of 4 laser treatments are recommended for ultimate results.
Our laser hand piece covers a much larger area than most lasers for the removal of hair. Light is spread over a wide area of skin and allows for faster coverage of the skin and quicker treatments as a result. Areas that can be treated are legs, chest, back, underarms, bikini line, and face. One of the benefits of our laser is that you do not have to let the hair grow out between treatments.
Acne scarring is treated with a non-ablative laser hand piece to soften and reduce scarring. A series of 3 – 5 laser skin treatments are recommended depending on the severity of the scarring. Generally there is no recovery time, but you may experience a pinkish tone to the skin for 5 - 7 days.
This treatment utilizes a fractional laser hand piece to deliver light in an array of narrow, focused "microbeams", to create coagulation within the skin. These columns initiate a natural healing process that forms new, healthy tissue, resulting in improved skin appearance. This is used for wrinkling, acne scarring and on the face as well as most areas of the body including chest, arms and hands.
A fractional ablative laser is used for skin tightening, wrinkling and acne scarring. The laser directs thermal energy into the skin via hundreds of tiny "micobeams". Unsightly skin is selectively vaporized and within a few days is replaced with fresh healthy skin. Redness should be expected, but usually after 4-7 days makeup can be applied. This treatment works well on deep wrinkles and scars.
Glycolic peels are used to smooth and refine the skin and to soften fine lines and wrinkles. There is no recovery time with this treatment although the skin may be a little pink for a day. A series of treatment is usually recommended.
This is a series of 6 treatments, alternating between the Glycolic Peel and the photo facial, spaced two weeks apart. This is a wonderful treatment to smooth and refine the skin and also to remove redness, fine lines, brown spots, spider veins, and rosacea.
This chemical peel will give you tighter, renewed skin, and diminished brown spots after just one treatment. After the peel you will experience swelling, redness, and peeling with a recovery period of about 7 - 10 days.
Microdermabrasion gently removes the upper layer of dead skin cells with a diamond-imbedded tip or gentle abrasive crystals, leaving the skin soft and smooth. Microdermabrasion gives the skin a renewed tone, reduces enlarged pores and scars, and gives a generally improved appearance. A series of 6 treatments is recommended, with no recovery time required.
Dr. Passaretti is skilled at a number of laser skin treatments that can rejuvenate the skin’s tone and reduce the appearance of wrinkles. If you are interested in learning more about what laser skin treatments can do for you, contact our Fairfield County, Connecticut practice today.
