Q: What advanced skin care treatments do you offer?

A: Our newest is HIFU. High intense focused ultrasound (sometimes called the “lunchtime facial”) will produce small, microthermal lesions at precise depths in the dermis up to the fibromuscular layer, causing thermally induced contraction of collagen tissue.

Q: Who is a good candidate?

A: This is for all skin types for face and body treatments. Great for maintenance and advanced aging cases.

Q: Will I notice immediate and permanent results?

A: You may notice some initial effect of tightening and firming, but ultimately lifting and firming will take place over approximately 3 months, as collagen is renewed and replaced with stronger collagen. Regardless of the service you choose, to continue to maintain good skin-quality, it is required to engage in a continuing skin care regimen. Results should last 12-24 months.

Q: Does the treatment hurt?

A: Most individuals do not report pain. There can be a slight “zing” over bony areas or a warm sensation in the skin during treatment. No numbing is required.
