Laser Skin Treatments Available At Medical Spas

If you find yourself interested in booking an appointment at a medspa, it’s likely that you are looking for ways to improve your skin. Many of us consider good skin to be a hallmark of youth and beauty. However, it is also very common to suffer from various skin conditions that can make one self-conscious. No matter what your skin type is right now, most of us could benefit from a little extra TLC in our skincare. 

At Skin MB in Nashville, we understand the struggles we all go through with our skin. So many of us deal with acne, wrinkles, fine lines, dark spots, scars, rosacea, or any combination of these skin concerns. While these skin concerns can sometimes seem unmanageable, a good esthetician can find ways to make improvements. The results are glowing, youthful skin, and the confidence that comes with it. For some, consistent facials might do the trick to improve skin concerns. However, if that doesn’t quite cut it, you might consider a laser skin treatment

What Are Laser Skin Treatments?

It should be no surprise in this day and age that laser technology is used in all types of industries, even medical spas. Laser skin treatments utilize light to target a wide variety of skin concerns on the face and other areas of the body. These treatments are administered by our expert estheticians, who can also help you decide which treatment is right for you. 

Before the treatment, the esthetician will apply an anesthetic cream to the area to lessen discomfort. During the treatment, you may experience minor discomfort such as mild heat sensations or stinging. After the treatment, you might continue feeling some warmth in the treated area for up to 48 hours. A couple of huge benefits of laser skin treatments are that they are minimally invasive with little to no downtime. 

Types Of Laser Skin Treatments

Just as there are a wide variety of skin conditions and concerns, there are also many different laser skin treatments that have been developed to treat those concerns. At Skin MB, we offer the following treatments:

 

  • Intense Pulsed Light (IPL): This treatment addresses the color and texture of your skin by using different wavelengths of pulsating light. Specifically, this treatment targets areas of the skin that have been affected by the sun and leaves the surrounding tissue alone. 

 

  • Broadband Light (BBL): This is an effective treatment for sun-damaged skin and aging. This treatment uses flash lamp technology and a broad range of wavelengths to target skin issues.

 

  • Photorejuvenation and Photofacial: This treatment uses light-based technology to smooth skin, lighten hyper-pigmentation, reduce wrinkles, and treat blemishes. The latest photorejuvenation technology is used to address your specific skin concerns. 

 

What Can Laser Skin Treatments Do For Me?

As you may have noticed, laser treatments are used to treat many different skin concerns and conditions. The Intense Pulsed Light method can treat a wide variety of concerns including acne, age spots, discoloration, freckles, rosacea, spider veins, and scars. If your concerns are related to the color and texture of your skin, then the Intense Pulsed Light might be the right treatment for you.

If you are concerned with sun damage to the skin, either the Intense Pulsed Light or the Broadband Light might be right for you. Treating sun damage to the skin is important because sun damage is the main cause of aging in the skin. The Broadband Light technology works to treat skin concerns such as acne, uneven skin textures, pigment-related conditions, vascular lesions, and sagging skin. 

All of the laser skin treatments offered at Skin MB can be useful in treating skin issues that affect the tone, texture, and signs of age on your skin. While many choose to target these concerns on their face, laser skin treatments can also be used to improve the appearance of the skin on your hands, neck, back, and elsewhere.
