Q: What results can I expect from fillers?

Q: How many laser treatment sessions will I need for facial or leg vein removal?

A: The number of sessions is dependent on the treatment that you require and the condition of your skin. The laser creates a beam of high intensity light that penetrates deeply into the skin tissue to help to diminish these lines and break down veins.

It is clinically proven to complement your facial procedures to lighten, tighten, firm and turn your skin cells over on a daily basis, making your overall aesthetic facial appearance even better. It is much more effective than other over-the-counter products and will help you maintain healthier, younger-looking skin.
