Technology-driven results for smoother, firmer skin
Lasers and microneedling are some of the most effective ways to resurface skin, fade discoloration, tighten laxity, and soften scars, often with surprisingly little downtime.
Our Boston providers build treatment plans with technologies such as Morpheus8®, Vivace®, Clear + Brilliant®, and SkinPen®, matching each one to your skin and your timeline.
Consultations help us choose the right device for you.
Your provider examines your skin type and history.
Together you choose a device and plan your sessions.
Treatment
Numbing cream is applied for more intensive treatments, and protective eyewear is used with lasers.
Sessions take 15 to 60 minutes.
Your provider adjusts settings throughout for comfort and safety.
Afterward
Expect redness for a day or two.
Some treatments cause mild swelling or a sandpaper feel.
Results improve over several weeks as collagen builds.
A series of treatments is often recommended, with sessions spaced a few weeks apart for the best long-term results.
