At Medical Grade Aesthetics, we offer a number of skin rejuvenation solutions, but one of our most popular treatments are our laser facials in Beloit. Laser facials treat a myriad of skin concerns, including wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, scarring, and more.
Here, we’ll explain exactly how laser facials can help with common skin concerns and explore your laser options so you can find one to fit your unique goals.
Common Skin Concerns
These are the most common skin concerns our team treats at Medical Grade Aesthetics:
Acne
While acne can have many causes, it usually forms when oil from the skin gets trapped within your hair follicles. While anyone can develop acne, it is most common in teenagers, as hormone fluctuations caused by puberty can increase the amount of oil produced by the skin.
You can treat acne with many methods, including regular at-home skincare, facials, and even medications. Oftentimes, you will need to pair multiple treatments to see a 100% improvement in your acne, and a trained provider can offer important guidance.
At Medical Grade Aesthetics, we understand that our laser facials in Beloit can help reduce acne, but they work best combined with other procedures or products. Your provider can talk with you about your skin type and other skin concerns to help you determine the best treatment to pair with your laser facial. That way, you can achieve clear skin that you feel confident in.
Wrinkles/Fine Lines
Wrinkles form naturally as a sign of aging, but how early you begin to see wrinkles depends on how well you care for your skin. Your skin produces collagen and elastin, which are two proteins responsible for helping your skin stay elastic (stretchy) and retain moisture. Both keep your skin smooth and looking youthful.
However, certain factors can decrease your body’s natural production of collagen and elastin. Going into the sun without sunscreen can damage your skin cells, lowering your body’s ability to create these necessary proteins. Not drinking enough water, not eating a balanced diet, not exercising, eating greasy or fatty foods regularly, and not using daily skincare can also decrease your body’s production of collagen and elastin. Without collagen and elastin, your skin loses elasticity, causing it to age prematurely and form wrinkles and fine lines.
Our laser facials in Beloit cause controlled injury within the uppermost layer of the skin, also known as the epidermis. This causes your skin to increase your production of collagen and elastin to “heal” the skin, creating healthier cells for a smoother, clearer complexion.
Scarring
Many things could cause scarring in your face—poorly healed acne, injuries, and more. A scar is usually composed of fibrous tissue and can appear flat, lumpy, or discolored. While scarring occurs naturally as part of the skin’s healing process, having them on your face can impact your confidence.
We offer multiple skin resurfacing treatments for different concerns, but for moderate to severe scarring, we prefer laser facials in Beloit to deliver effective treatment and lasting results. Laser facials help to remove the fibrous tissue, which stimulates your body to increase collagen and elastin production, creating stronger, healthier skin cells. After multiple treatment sessions, this leads to the development of smoother, more even-toned skin.
Sun/Age Spots
Sun spots, also known as liver spots or age spots, are small, flat, dark spots on your skin. While anyone can develop sun spots, they most commonly form on adults over the age of 50 as a result of overactive pigment within your skin cells.
Our skin naturally contains pigment called melanin, which helps give us our skin color. When our skin is exposed to direct sunlight, it produces more pigment to protect us from getting serious damage, like a sunburn. Over time, direct sunlight can cause the pigment in our skin to clump together, creating sun spots.
While sun spots are not dangerous, they can make you feel self-conscious about how your skin looks. To help, our team offers laser facials that break up the concentration of pigment to correct the discoloration and restore your youthful-looking skin.
Rosacea
Rosacea is a common skin condition where the skin flushes or appears red for long periods of time—lasting anywhere from days to even months. Rosacea can’t be cured completely, but by combining skincare with in-house treatment like laser facials in Beloit, our team can minimize flare-ups and help you feel more confident in your skin.
Enlarged blood vessels near the surface of the skin cause rosacea. Laser skin resurfacing damages these superficial blood vessels, causing them to collapse. Your body naturally reabsorbs those damaged vessels, reducing the amount of redness you experience during a rosacea flare-up.
Dull Skin Tone
You could have a dull skin tone for plenty of reasons—dehydration, congested pores, poor lifestyle choices, and more. While many of these can be fixed with simple lifestyle changes, sometimes the cause lies deeper within your skin.
With a laser facial in Beloit, your provider can target deeper skin concerns to brighten and even out your overall skin tone. As a result, you can feel more confident and beautiful in your reflection!
Large Pores
Having large pores is not a major health concern, but it could indicate many different aesthetic concerns, including an overproduction of sebum, decreased skin elasticity, or an increased hair follicle volume.
We offer different treatments that can address each of these issues individually, but if you want to target all these concerns with just one treatment, then we recommend one of our laser facials in Beloit. A laser facial can improve skin elasticity and reduce sebum production while preventing hair growth.
Your Laser Options
We offer more than just one option for your laser facial in Beloit—we use 4 different lasers to help you accomplish your goals and feel confident in your skin. Your provider can talk with you during your consultation about which device would work best for your individual needs.
Motus AZ
The cutting-edge Motus AZ laser can perform skin resurfacing, laser hair removal, pigmented lesion reduction, and more.
One of the reasons patients love the Motus AZ for skin resurfacing is because of the comfortable process. It uses a sapphire cooling tip to protect the surface of the skin while gently heating the lower layers. This keeps your epidermis from heating up too much and makes treatment more precise, ensuring you stay as comfortable as possible while still effectively resurfacing your skin.
If you are looking to balance results with comfort, then the Motus AZ laser may be the right option for your laser facial in Beloit.
Deka CO2
This award-winning laser delivers the ultimate ablative treatment using the latest CO2 technology. The Deka CO2 laser can effectively target multiple skin concerns, including uneven skin texture, pigmentation, and more!
What sets the Deka Tetra Pro laser apart from other lasers is how your provider can easily select the power, intensity, and pulse durations to customize your treatment to your needs. No matter what concerns you’re here to address, your provider can work with you to ensure you receive the specialized care you need.
So if you’re looking for a laser that can be customized to your needs, then the Deka Tetra Pro might be the right laser for you.
AviClear
AviClear is the first FDA-cleared energy device for treating mild, moderate, and severe acne. What makes AviClear so wonderful is that it targets acne at the source, causing your skin to produce less oil. This in turn produces less acne-causing bacteria, creating happier and clearer-looking skin.
AviClear is a laser specifically designed to effectively and comfortably treat active acne, so if you are looking to target acne specifically, then you can ask one of our providers if AviClear is right for you.
CoolPeel
The CoolPeel laser actually uses the same revolutionary CO2 technology as the Tetra Pro, but it doesn’t deliver thermal energy to your skin, making your laser skin resurfacing treatment more comfortable. As another bonus, this device requires minimal downtime! Once you finish your treatment sessions, you may be red for 24-48 hours, but you can return to your daily activities as normal.
So if you’re looking for a skin resurfacing treatment that doesn’t demand significant downtime or recovery, then you can talk with one of our providers to see if CoolPeel is right for you.
Partnering Treatment With At-Home Skincare
We often recommend pairing our laser facials with at-home skin care to ensure you achieve the best results.
Skincare is an essential part of maintaining your skin’s health. Think of it like going to the dentist—you get a deep cleaning every 6 months and then support your oral health every day by brushing twice a day and flossing once a day. The same logic applies to your in-clinic skin treatments and your at-home skincare.
Not sure where to get started for skincare? You can easily schedule a skin analysis with our expert team, who can help you identify your main skin concerns and determine the best products to complement your in-house treatments. However, if you know which products to shop for, you can easily purchase what you need in our online store and have it sent directly to your home.
