Micro Dermabrasion, Peels and Photorejuvenation for Your Neck and Chest
Of all the things you will be decorating this holiday season, none is more important than the neck and upper chest – this is where your best jewels will sparkle and they deserve an attractive and smooth background. Fortunately, there are some relatively quick solutions to help make this area glow with health...
Micro Dermabrasion - lets you see immediate improvements and there is no downtime. The Phantom Micro dermabrasion treatment removes dead and flaking skin cells and simulates the production of fresh young skin cells and collagen, removes age spots and fine lines – it can even reduce the appearance of acne scars. Effective on all skin types, this gentle and relaxing treatment is an excellent de-stressor – a key ingredient to glowing skin.
Chemical Peels - glycolic or small, regional peels are best for a quick solution. A chemical peel removes the top cell layers which will be replaced during the healing process with a fresh, new skin surface. Results take a little longer (5 to 7 days) but are not as involved as a full chemical peel.
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) Photorejuvenation - treats several more problems like Rosaceae, broken capillaries and redness. The smooth glass surface of the IPL hand-piece is gently applied to your skin and pulses of light are applied. Several sessions are needed, depending on how many areas are treated – but there is no downtime since the IPL treats skin damage without disruption of the skin's surface. Results are visible within a week.
Dr. Rahimi is great. He's not pushy and let's you decide what might be the right treatment for your situation. He knows what he is doing and is very caring and has a calming presence. The staff is very helpful and friendly. I will be seeing Dr. Rahimi when I want further work.
