PALOMAR Starlux TMINTENSE PULSE LIGHT PROCESS We all want clear skin, but nature has a way of sabotaging us with frustrating imperfections. Luckily, photofacial technology has been growing in leaps and bounds, culminating in the Palomar Starlux TMProcess. The Starlux TMProcess uses pulsed light to treat the following problems: Pigmented Lesions (Sunspots or Age Spots) - occur in response to sun-induced skin injury and appear as dark brown circles, known as Solar Lentigines. There can also be diffuse browning of the skin, known as Actinic Bronzing. Treatment: The Starlux TMlight pulse is directly absorbed by the pigment in the lesion. The light heats the pigment and breaks it up. The lesion darkens and crusts after treatment and is naturally shed from the skin after approximately ten days. Vascular Lesions - superficial blue, red or purple veins under the skin's surface. Some common types include Rosacea (facial inflamation) and Spider Veins (tiny vessels that appear near the surface of the face). Treatment: Starlux TMlight pulses heat the small capillaries that cause telangiectasia, Rosacea and other vascular lesions. The heat shrinks these capillaries, which may redden or become gray after treatment. They then fade from view after approximately ten days You don't have to live with these imperfections! Palomar has developed the Palomar Family of Palused Light Systems to remove your pigmented and vascular lesions to improve your skin texture and tone with quick and easy treatments. Rejuvenate your skin with the Starlux TMProcess! What body areas can I get treated? Any area, except directly around the eyes. The face, neck, chest, arms, hands, legs, ect. can all be treated quickly and safely. What are Starlux TMtreatment sessions like? Quick and easy! After your initial preparation, your treatment provider will move the Palomar pulsed light hand piece over your skin. The hand piece emits a light that breaks up the pigment in the lesions. Most people perceive the light as a gentle "snapping" sensation, which causes little to no discomfort. What should I expect after treatment? Pigmented lesions will darken slightly after treatment, and then fade away after about 10-14 days. Vessels (visible veins) generally undergo immediate graying or blanching and the surrounding area may redden. The vessels then fade after about 10-14 days. Most people experience some mild temporary redness and swelling, similar to a sunburn, in the treated area shortly after treatment. This does not interfere with normal activities and usually subsides within a day. In some cases, the redness may last longer, but will still be mild and temporary. Your treatment provider will explain other, less likely side effects to you. Call today for an estimated cost of Starlux TMPulsed Light treatments at 561.655.9055.
