Post-Surgical Treatment Packages

Medical science is truly remarkable, and it’s constantly giving us new ways to address a number of cosmetic issues, from wrinkles to excess fat. And while non-surgical treatments have come a long way, there are still many situations in which plastic surgery will offer the best and most predictable results. For instance, many women have excess sagging skin and an abdominal “pooch” after pregnancy, and while we do offer a non-surgical way to make the skin firmer, only a tummy tuck can repair loose muscles that cause the notorious “pooch.”
Laser Lights owner Dr. David M. Whiteman is a double board-certified plastic surgeon who offers tummy tucks, facelifts, and other cosmetic and reconstructive surgeries at his practice, Southern Plastic Surgery—less than a mile from Laser Lights. In order to truly offer his patients the best possible care from their first consultation through their healing process, Dr. Whiteman has joined his two facilities under one common goal. That’s why, at Laser Lights, we offer specialized post-surgical treatments to enhance results and accelerate the healing process after cosmetic surgery.

The Body Package

For patients who have received liposuction, a tummy tuck, post-weight loss skin removal, or other procedures for the body, the “Body Package” includes two treatments of Viora Reaction™ skin tightening and two treatments of SilkPeel® microdermabrasion. Viora Reaction™ is a comfortable and non-invasive procedure which uses radio frequency energy (RF) to warm the deeper layers of the skin. Along with gentle vacuum pressure, this stimulates collagen production to gradually make the skin firmer and thicker, so it more tightly conforms to your newly slimmed contours while improving the skin’s radiance. SilkPeel® is often used as a facial skin treatment, but when it’s used on the body, this new take on microdermabrasion can reduce the visibility of scarring, minimize stretch marks, and improve the overall skin quality—a perfect way to put the finishing touches on your new look.

The Facial Package

After a face lift, eyelid surgery, or other facial surgery, the three SilkPeel® microdermabrasion sessions and one lymphatic drainage massage treatment our “Facial Package” includes can accelerate the healing process and enhance a newly youthful profile. By minimizing fine lines and surface imperfections while also reducing the appearance of surgical scars, SilkPeel® is a perfect companion to a rejuvenating surgery, because the surgery can improve the shape of the face while SilkPeel® improves the quality of the skin itself. Lymphatic drainage massage, on the other hand, is a great tool for smoothing and accelerating the healing process after surgery. This precise form of massage helps the lymphatic system remove cell waste from the body. Ultimately, this results in a stronger immune system, faster healing, less swelling, improved blood flow, and less scar tissue.
