Skin Care for Teens at Laser Lights Cosmetic Laser Center

May is a month full of events including graduations and parties, which also means lots of pictures. A good skincare regimen is important to incorporate in your daily routine at any age.  Although teens may not need to worry about wrinkles and lines quite yet, encouraging a healthy skincare routine can prevent skin damage and slow the appearance of premature aging.teen skin care atlanta georgia

Sunscreen is the most important element to include in your daily skincare regimen as it protects your skin from harmful UVA and UVB rays that can cause premature aging and skin cancer. Patti Daniel, Laser Director and Co-owner of Laser Lights Cosmetic Laser Center encourages her patients to wear a broad spectrum sunscreen with at least a 30 SPF or more every day. She also educates patients on sun safety such as avoiding indoor tanning beds.

Acne can be a nuisance and embarrassing for many during their adolescent years.  Acne light therapy is an option provided by the experienced laser technicians to help eliminate the uncomfortable signs of acne providing smoother, clearer skin.  Other skincare treatments available for teens at Laser Lights include customized facials and chemical peels.

Proper diet and exercise can also keep skin looking youthful and glowing. With a comprehensive skincare routine that addresses existing issues and also protects your skin for the future, you won’t cringe at viewing the pictures you took while having fun!

Laser Tattoo Removal at Laser Lights

According to Harris Interactive’s most recent statistics, one in five Americans has at least one tattoo. As the job market continues to stay competitive, many people are considering having those tattoos removed. Regardless of the reason for wanting tattoo removal, the experienced professionals of Laser Lights Cosmetic Laser Center can help you achieve permanent removal.atlanta-laser-tattoo-removal

As with all of our laser procedures, we only offer medical-grade FDA approved laser equipment. Our laser tattoo removal technology is safe for all skin types including darker skin tones. Since tattoos are meant to be permanent, it can take several sessions to remove the tattoo entirely.  Factors such as age of tattoo, color, ink used, type, and size can all affect the number of treatments needed. Our skilled laser technicians can provide a better estimate during a pre-laser skin analysis.

In general, professional tattoos with darker colors such as green and blue are more difficult to remove while homemade black tattoos tend to be easier. Older tattoos are also easier to remove as they begin to fade over time. Inks with a carbon based tend to fade faster than non-carbon based.

Generally, laser treatments for tattoo removal are usually spaced four to six weeks apart. Depending on how the skin reacts to the laser, treatment sessions may be done closer together.  A test spot can give our professionals a good idea how quickly the ink will respond. Sometimes the laser technician uses the R20 technique where two to four treatments can be done at the same time. With this technique the laser can break up more ink without having to wait for the next treatment.

If you are interested in learning more about our tattoo removal services or other cosmetic laser procedures we offer, please contact our office at 770-495-9322. Be sure to also connect with us on Facebook, Twitter, and Google+ for the latest cosmetic laser news and monthly specials.

Smooth Away Wrinkles at Our Cosmetic Laser Center

Environmental factors such as smoking, sun damage, and stress can cause premature aging. Laser Lights Cosmetic Laser Center offers laser skin resurfacing treatments to turn back the hands of time and provide patients with a more youthful appearance.  Laser skin resurfacing is great for both men and women looking to rejuvenate their skin without the expense of surgical facial procedures.Laser Treatment

Our medical grade, FDA-approved laser technologies can help address fine lines and wrinkles on the face as well as even out skin tone and irregularities. Our experienced laser technicians use the CO2 fractionated laser technology to target specific areas of the face, allowing for a completely customizable treatment for your skincare needs. This fractionated technology can penetrate deeper layers of the skin by creating tiny wounds through laser columns, promoting collagen production through the body’s natural healing process.

Patients with superficial skin conditions such as mild wrinkles and brown spots may benefit from Erbium laser resurfacing.  As an added benefit, this surface-level laser can treat the hands, neck, or chest in addition to the face.  This procedure is milder than fractionated resurfacing, reducing recovery time.

We also offer a micro-laser peel also known as the “weekend” peel for patients with minor imperfections, which allows for a short recovery period and minimal post-treatment care.

During a pre-treatment skin analysis, our laser technicians will identify if you are a good candidate for laser skin resurfacing.  As old skin is removed and new skin is revealed, patients can expect to feel a slight sunburn sensation after treatment. It’s important to avoid sunlight for at least a week after treatment.

To schedule a laser skin resurfacing appointment, please call our office today. Be sure to connect with Laser Lights on Facebook, Twitter, and Google+ for the latest cosmetic laser specials and news.

Beware of Deal Sites Offering Laser Hair Removal

You probably receive at least one email everyday with special offers and skin care treatment savings in your area.  Although these deals can be enticing, it’s important to know a few key points about cosmetic treatments before buying any deeply discounted treatment.   At Laser Lights Cosmetic Laser Center, we offer competitive pricing while maintaining the highest level of patient care and safety.  We use tools like our website and blog to keep patients informed of treatment options and to educate them on what to look for when selecting a procedure besides the cost of laser hair removal. laser hair removal atlanta georgia

Many times, places offering laser hair removal packages for extremely discounted rates do not have medical-grade equipment or professionally trained laser technicians.  It’s not uncommon for patients to come to Laser Lights for additional treatments after using a deal at another location because they are unsatisfied with their results.  By receiving services from an unlicensed laser technician, individuals also assume an increased risk of burns or scarring from misuse of lasers.

At Laser Lights, we only offer FDA approved laser equipment that is safe for your unique skin type.  As a member of the American Society of Laser Medicine and Surgery (ASLMS), our certified laser technicians are dedicated to providing patients with optimal care to meet their skincare needs. Our laser hair removal services can permanently reduce hair growth almost anywhere on the body.  The most common areas treated include laser hair removal on the legs, underarms, face, and bikini line.  Receiving treatment from an experienced laser technician also helps ensure that you will need fewer secondary sessions as the laser is set specifically for your unique skin and hair type.

Because hair grows in cycles, it is necessary for multiple treatments to achieve permanent results. We also offer touch-up sessions for only $60. If you are interested in laser hair removal services, please call our office today.  Be sure to view our specials page for laser hair removal packages and other cosmetic savings. You can also connect with us on Facebook, Twitter and Google+ for the latest cosmetic lasers news and information.

Get Ready for Spring Break at Laser Lights Cosmetic Laser Center

Although it’s still winter, sunshine and spring break are following close behind.  Winter weather can leave many of us feeling that our skin is lackluster. Staying warm with sweaters and jeans for months at a time can also cause us to neglect our skin. Summer skincare

At Laser Lights, we want to you to look your best for whatever your spring break plans might entail.  Now is a great time to take advantage of several cosmetic and laser procedures. Treatments such as laser hair removal, spider vein elimination, Viora skin firming, and laser skin resurfacing usually require multiple sessions to acquire optimal results. Starting treatments now can have your skin feeling and looking great in time to pull out the shorts and swimsuits.

Laser hair removal is a popular treatment for both men and women wanting to eliminate unwanted body and facial hair.  Since the hair removal process is only effective during the early growing cycle, patients usually need up to 6 visits for full, permanent hair removal.  Our FDA-approved medical grade lasers can safely treat almost any area of the body; popular areas for hair removal include the legs, underarms, arms, face, chest and bikini.

You shouldn’t feel self-conscious this spring because of unsightly facial or leg veins. Our laser treatment delivers laser energy to the vein so that the body naturally absorbs the unsightly vessels. This safe procedure requires between one to three sessions and patients benefit from no downtime.

If you are looking to show-off a healthier looking face with a youthful glow, you may be interested in CO2 laser resurfacing. This fractionated laser can address signs of aging including sun spots and wrinkles as well as smooth out acne scars e and hyperpigmentation. Since this procedure eliminates old, damaged skin to reveal new, healthy skin, patients can expect to feel effects similar to sunburn (depending on the depth of treatment required). Since it’s important to avoid direct sunlight for several days after treatment, winter is a great time for laser resurfacing as you spend more time indoors.

If you are looking to reduce cellulite and tighten loose skin, let Viora Reaction™ non-invasive technology address those concerns. This advanced technology uses radio frequency to reduce cellulite and promote collagen production.  Most patients begin to notice results after one treatment, but typically receive multiple treatments for optimal results.

To learn more about these procedures or other services we offer, please contact our office today. Be sure to connect with us on Facebook, Twitter, and Google+ for the latest cosmetic laser news and information.
