Skin Resurfacing – Three Lakes Medical Aesthetics

Skin Resurfacing

Explore the Alma Accent Prime Pixel fractional microplasma ablation integrated with Dye-VL Laser Treatment, an advanced skin resurfacing and rejuvenation technology. This treatment is specifically designed to address facial redness, flushing, and visible red veins. Utilizing cutting-edge laser technology, it precisely targets and diminishes the hemoglobin responsible for these skin concerns. The Pixel fractional microplasma module, a key component of this system, employs a 2940 nm wavelength to enhance the treatment’s effectiveness. Light energy is applied to break down hemoglobin, and the body’s natural processes then work to eliminate these remnants, leading to clearer, smoother skin. This combination of technologies offers a comprehensive solution for skin rejuvenation, ensuring effective and safe treatment results

How does Dye-VL & Pixel fractional microplasma technologies work?

Dye VL works by specifically targeting the chromospheres in lesions, ensuring that the laser only treats the specific pigment through a process of selective photothermolysis.

The Alma Pixel fractional microplasma utilizes fractional ablative YAG laser technology at a 2940 nm wavelength to create microthermal zones in the skin, stimulating natural healing and rejuvenation processes.

Benefits of Dye-VL treatments:

Effective Treatment for Lesions: Dye-VL is considered a preferred technology for treating pigmented and vascular lesions, addressing underlying problems without damaging the skin’s outer layer.

Skin Rejuvenation: Apart from addressing skin issues, it also serves to rejuvenate the skin, enhancing its overall appearance.

Advanced Technology: It employs advanced IPL (Intense Pulse Light) technology, utilizing a narrow band of pulsating light, making it a highly customizable, safe, and effective laser skin treatment.

Optimal for Hemoglobin Absorption: The narrow band spectrum is optimal for hemoglobin absorption, targeting vascular lesions effectively.

Pigmentation Removal: High absorption in melanin enables it to be effective in removing spots and pigmentation.

Benefits of Pixel fractional microplasma:

Higher Penetration Depth: The Alma Pixel fractional microplasma ablation laser has a higher penetration depth compared to other lasers. This allows for effective collagen shrinkage and skin tightening, addressing deeper skin layers for more significant rejuvenation effects.

Improvement in Photo-aged Skin: Alma's technology significantly enhances the appearance of photo-aged skin. It effectively treats age spots, blemishes, and pigmentation, restoring a more youthful skin appearance.

Reduced Downtime: The fractional ablative technology of the Pixel 2940 laser is designed to rejuvenate skin with less downtime. This is particularly beneficial for those seeking effective treatments with minimal interruption to their daily lives.

Layer-by-Layer Skin Removal: For skin rejuvenation, this laser removes the damaged skin layer-by-layer in a controlled manner. This method allows for precision in treatment and helps in achieving uniform results

Combination of Ablative and Non-Ablative Effects: The Pixel Laser combines the dramatic effects of an ablative laser with the gentler, less invasive approach of a non-ablative laser. This results in effective resurfacing with reduced risks and side effects

Minimal Injury to Surrounding Tissues: Erbium laser resurfacing causes minimal injury to surrounding tissues. This leads to fewer side effects than other laser types, making it a safer option for various skin types and conditions.

Popular conditions treated, but not limited to:

Port Wine Stains: Addressing discoloration due to capillary malformation.

Hemangioma: Treating benign growths of blood vessel cells.

Rosacea: Managing redness and visible blood vessels in the face.

Venous Malformation: Rectifying abnormalities of the larger veins.

Acne & Acne Scarring: Mitigating the effects of acne and resultant scars.

Hypopigmentation: Correcting areas of skin lacking color.

Fine Lines & Wrinkles: Reducing the visibility of lines and creases in the skin.

Skin Tightening: Enhancing skin elasticity and firmness.

Fractional Ablative Skin Resurfacing: Refining skin texture through controlled damage to promote healing and renewal.

Photofacial Treatments: Improving mild skin conditions and uneven complexions through light energy.

Frequently Asked Questions:

What does Dye-VL technology target?

Dye-VL technology targets the chromospheres in the lesion using a system of selective photothermolysis. It targets the melanin in pigmented lesions and the hemoglobin in vascular lesions.

What additional conditions can Dye-VL treatments address?

Dye-VL treatments can address a range of skin conditions such as redness, spider veins, vascular lesions, rosacea, skin discoloration caused by sun damage, freckles, skin laxity, uneven skin tone, venous malformations, cherry angiomas, and melasma.

Can Dye-VL treatments stimulate collagen production?

Yes, Dye-VL has been found effective at stimulating collagen production, which can help to boost hydration and elasticity in the skin, contributing to a more youthful appearance.
