Large Pores

Problems with skin laxity and texture can affect your self-esteem. As your skin is no longer able to produce collagen as it did in your youth, you are more susceptible to wrinkling, skin sagging, scarring, or even developing age spots.

Luckily, there is a solution, and the Sylfirm X Ultimate Edition RF microneedling procedure is one of the newest treatments that can help you solve skin laxity problems. At Allure Image, we offer this radiofrequency (RF) microneedling treatment to anyone in need of it.

Candidates

Anyone can be a good candidate for Sylfirm X, regardless of skin type. If you notice the early signs of aging or any pigmentation issues, then Sylfirm X might be the right choice for you. The treatment can help you with various pigmentation issues, including melasma and rosacea. Atrophic scars and stretch marks may also be reduced by opting for Sylfirm X.Those looking for skin rejuvenation benefits may also prove to be good candidates for the Sylfirm X Ultimate RF microneedling procedure. It can help you with wrinkles, fine lines, enlarged pores, rhytides, and skin laxity. As with any other procedure, you should have realistic expectations as the results may depend on the severity of the condition. Sylfirm X is not recommended for women who are pregnant or breastfeeding. Also, if you are currently undergoing treatment (i.e., blood thinners, radiation, or chemo), you may not be a good candidate for Sylfirm X.

Sylfirm X uses dual-wave radiofrequency microneedling to send heat into your skin and stimulate collagen production. The treatment can handle not only issues with skin laxity but may also address pigmentation issues. As the needles puncture your skin and create micro-channels, the handheld tool delivers heat for a more pronounced rejuvenation. To put it in simple terms, the RF microneedling process will heat your dermis and deeper skin layers. By doing so, it will trigger the production of new collagen, improving conditions like fine lines, wrinkles, and even scarring or pigmentation. The handheld unit can be set on continuous waveform and pulsed waveform. When set on the continuous waveform, it can help reduce wrinkles and fine lines by stimulating collagen production. On the other hand, when set on the pulse waveform, it can break down pigments and reduce skin conditions like redness, acne, melasma, rosacea, and more.

One of the main advantages of the Sylfirm X Ultimate Edition treatment is that it comes with little potential for downtime. Most patients can return to their daily habits immediately after the treatment. That being said, since your skin can be quite sensitive at this point, you may want to take the day off if you have a strenuous job.After the treatment, you may notice some mild redness and swelling in the treatment area. More often than not, the swelling will go down in a couple of hours, but it can take up to a few days for some people. Cold compresses in the first few hours can help you keep the swelling down.As already mentioned, your skin can be quite sensitive at this point, so you may want to refrain from touching it in the first few days. However, if you do touch your skin, make sure your hands are clean. You should be able to wear makeup and other skincare products after a day or two and don’t forget to use sunblock, especially if you are planning to go outdoors.

The duration of the Sylfirm X results will depend on factors like the condition you are treating, your skin type, and the number of treatments you receive. Usually, you should be able to enjoy the results for at least a couple of months, but they can easily last for more than one year. It’s important to note that the Sylfirm X treatment aims to stimulate your body’s natural collagen production and healing process. Still, factors like sun exposure, smoking, or other environmental elements can interfere with this process. So, to make the most out of your Sylfirm X results, it is important that you maintain a good skincare routine and healthy lifestyle. Avoid excessive sun exposure as much as possible and wear sunblock when it cannot be avoided. To maintain results, it is recommended that you undergo repeat sessions every year.

]]> Dermaplaning https://www.allureimage.com/treatments/dermaplaning/ Tue, 08 Apr 2025 08:00:33 +0000 https://allureimage.wpenginepowered.com/?post_type=treatments&p=2101

Dermaplaning is a cosmetic procedure that removes the top layers of your skin. The procedure aims to remove fine wrinkles and deep acne scarring, as well as make the skin’s surface look smooth.

It is a method of exfoliation that consists of using a 10 gauge scalpel to gently scrape off the top layer of dull, dead skin cells in order to reveal a smoother, brighter complexion. Dermaplaning is recommended for all skin types except those with acneic skin. Dermaplaning also allows for greater penetration of skincare products and creates a flawless canvas for makeup to glide on smoothly.

What will the results be?

You’ll immediately look more radiant with a more even skin tone and texture. All of your peach fuzz will be gone, which is why first-timers say their skin has never felt so soft before.

Dermaplaning is a painless procedure and can be compared to the sensation of shaving your legs, but in this case, it’s on your face. First, the aesthetician will cleanse and thoroughly dry your skin. Next, she’ll pull an area of your skin taut with one hand, and hold a sterile 10 gauge blade at a 45 degree angle in the other hand and use short, swift strokes to scrape off dead skin cells and peach fuzz.

There are no side effects and zero downtime. After the treatment, your skin will be highly sensitive to sun exposure and may already look very pink, so be sure to wear a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher to reduce the risk of hyperpigmentation.

Dermaplaning is recommended for all skin types except those with acneic skin. If you have deep cystic acne, wait until breakouts are clear before trying this treatment. This is a great treatment if you are pregnant or nursing and want exfoliation without the risk of harsh chemicals absorbing into the blood stream and potentially harming your baby.

Dermaplaning removes 21 days worth of dead skin cells, so it’s best to allow the skin to complete its rejuvenation cycle before your next treatment.

The Tetra CO2 from Cartessa is an ablative laser that resurfaces damaged skin by selectively target a fraction of the skin cells at the treatment site.

This process acts not only to target damaged cells, but also stimulates the growth of healthy skin and supportive collagen fibers. As the skin heals, dark spots fade, wrinkles smooth, and skin texture and complexion improve. One of the great benefits of the Tetra laser is the versatility it provides during treatment, enabling us to use a variety of settings to disperse the laser beam bursts across the treatment area. This reduces heat absorption by surrounding tissues, which can be very helpful for reducing down time after treatment.

The laser can be calibrated with a variety of settings, which allows us to fine-tune the treatment to your specific needs. We use this laser to treat issues like: Dark Spots, Birthmarks or Blotchy Spots, Acne Scars, Scars from Injury, Fine Lines & Wrinkles, and Rough Skin.

What happens during a CO2 Laser treatment?

When your treatment begins, you will be asked to sit in a comfortable chair, in a semi-reclining position. We will also place protective eyewear over your eyes, to ensure your safety. Once the procedure starts, we will use the CO2 laser to deliver bursts of laser energy to your skin. The sensation during this step of the procedure can be described as a rubber band snapping against the skin.

Yes. You will see permanent and complete skin regeneration and intensive stimulation of new collagen synthesis

Each patient’s situation is unique, and the number of treatments needed will depend on your skin condition and aesthetic goals. However, most patients may see dramatic improvement after just one treatment. However, a recommendation of two or more treatments may be needed depending on your goals.

We strongly recommend that any patients undergoing this procedure take a few days off work, to allow the skin to recover. This is especially important as the skin’s natural UV defenses will be weakened after treatment, which makes it imperative to avoid direct sun exposure.

Call us today to set up your free consultation. We’ll see if you’re a good candidate for Tetra CO2 Laser Resurfacing and work with you to develop a treatment plan.

]]> Obagi® Blue Peel https://www.allureimage.com/treatments/obagi-blue-peel/ Mon, 07 Apr 2025 11:33:29 +0000 https://allureimage.wpenginepowered.com/?post_type=treatments&p=2070

Large Pores

Obagi® Blue Peel is a chemical peel that achieves optimum skin resurfacing by using slow-acting TCA to remove dead skin cells and stimulate the production of new ones.

The Obagi® Blue Peel will have the greatest benefit on those who have blemish-prone skin, wrinkles, pigmentation problems, sun damage or general poor skin quality. Layers of dead skin cells exfoliate and are replaced by healthier ones allowing the skin’s own clarity and tightness to resurface.

How does an Obagi® Blue Peel work?

The Obagi® Blue Peel safely and effectively rejuvenates the outermost layers of skin by delivering a controlled chemical acid to the epidermis. The chemical peel resurfaces fine lines and wrinkles, lightens unwanted pigment, tightens skin and reduces pore size and laxity. ‍ The Obagi® Blue Peel is a one to four step application of blue solution mixed with TCA (Trichloracetic Acid). These applications will lead to the removal of thin surface layers of aged and damaged skin. Layers of dead skin cells exfoliate and are replaced by healthier ones allowing the skin’s own clarity and tightness to resurface.

An Obagi® Blue Peel can effectively improve a wide variety of skin conditions including fine lines and wrinkles, uneven pigmentation, shallow acne scars, sun-damaged skin and freckling. An Obagi® Blue Peel is not a substitute for a facelift. It cannot eliminate excessive or lax skin. But, in many cases your physician may suggest that an Obagi® Blue Peel be performed in conjunction with other cosmetic procedures.

Depending upon the condition of your skin, one to four coats of the Obagi® Blue Peel solution will be applied. Most people will not require sedation. If the Physician indicates sedation, you will need someone to drive you home. With the application of each coat, you will experience a mild burning sensation that lasts two to three minutes. The Physician may use an electric fan to minimize this sensation. A light bluish tint remains on your skin, but it will wash off in 12 to 24 hours. Your skin will begin to peel within two to three days and should be healed in seven to ten days. This peeling should not disrupt your regular lifestyle.

No. Peeling the skin lightly in a controlled manner will not cause any damage to the skin. There are no internal toxic effects (TCA is not absorbed through the skin).

Obagi® Blue Peel treatments can be performed at four-week intervals until the desired correction is achieved. Annual Blue Peels assist in the long-term maintenance of skin health and fitness. Deep scars and hyperpigmentation may need deeper peels or other treatment procedures.

]]> SkinPen® Microneedling https://www.allureimage.com/treatments/microneedling/ Mon, 07 Apr 2025 11:32:48 +0000 https://allureimage.wpenginepowered.com/?post_type=treatments&p=2067

Large Pores

Microneedling with SkinPen® is a collagen-stimulating treatment great for general skin rejuvenation. It treats textural issues dealing with pores, acne scars, wrinkles, tightening, and more.

Another name for this treatment is collagen induction therapy, because Microneedling helps to stimulate your skin to regenerate collagen. Microneedling also causes your skin to plumpen and thicken, ultimately reducing the appearance of scars, fine lines and other skin texture changes.

How does microneedling work?

Microneedling involves thousands of tiny needles puncturing the top layer of your skin. The needle pricks create an injury, accelerating both the production of collagen and healing.It is an ideal treatment if you want to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, brown spots, fine lines, and pigmentation. The treatment also works to improve the overall texture of your skin.While microneedling may sound painful, it isn’t, provided the area is first numbed. After your procedure, your skin may be a little pink, and you may notice a few puncture wounds, but these fade within a few days.

It’s considered safe for most people who are in overall good health. The procedure isn’t safe for people who use certain acne medications or for women who are pregnant. You’ll experience minor redness and irritation for a few days after the procedure.

Microneedling is minimally invasive, requiring very little downtime. Expect redness or even pinpoints of bleeding on days one-three after the procedure. By day two, most patients look like they have a sunburn and they may be dry. The skin is usually fully recovered by day four after the procedure.

You can safely book your microneedling treatments every 4 to 6 weeks until you get the results you want. If your goal is scar reduction, you’ll likely need 3 to 6 treatments. For collagen induction, 3 treatments is a good starting point.
