TECHNOLOGY TREATMENTS

UNDERSTANDING TECHNOLOGY TREATMENTS

​

All of the aesthetic technology marketed for skin tightening that is current available works by addressing 2 vital components of our skin’s structure that affects laxity - collagen and elastin. In essence, these technologies are ALSO working on the skin quality by addressing these 2 components that affect laxity.

That being said, there are a lot of technologies marketed for tightening that do not live up to the hype! In contrast, there are a lot of practitioners who do not understand the technology and are unable to achieve the results these machines are capable of. Thus, patient selection is the key to success and we don’t choose the  technology but rather the technician! 

To simplify, each different energy (whether laser, ultrasound, radio frequency, plasma, etc) delivers energy that results in a CONTROLLED heat injury which in turn stimulates collagen remodeling and elastin. Each technology has advantages and disadvantages and the nuisances of each is for your technician to understand and choose what is best for your skin type and desired result. Combo technology is often utilized to achieve optimal results!

​

PRP

PRP is a form of regenerative medicine that harnesses the body’s power of self-healing. The plasma is the liquid portion of whole blood. It is composed largely of water and proteins, and it provides a medium for red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets to circulate through the body. Platelets, also called thrombocytes, are blood cells that cause blood clots and other necessary growth healing functions. Platelet activation plays a key role in the body's natural healing process.

PRP injections are prepared by taking anywhere from one to a few tubes of your own blood and running it through a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets. These activated platelets are then either injected directly into injured tissue or topically applied. This releases growth factors that stimulate and increase the number of reparative cells your body produces.

RENUVION

​

​

Consultation required.

CO2 LASER

​

Laser resurfacing has been a proven way to treat both skin quality and laxity. However, laser energy can vary widely in their effects and be very damaging in the wrong hands or incorrect patient selection. Fractionated CO2 laser treats deeper pigment, fine lines & wrinkles, resulting in skin tightening and collagen remodeling without disruption of the superficial skin. Customized settings by your doctor allow flexibility in downtime from 3 days to 2 weeks depending on your treatment goals.

​

The CO2 laser is the gold standard of skin resurfacing and it does an effective job at treating both skin quality and skin laxity making it a high ROI procedure!

At CBRx we utilize one of the few CO2 lasers designed to treat all skin types including ethnic skin safely! MiXto Pro fractional CO2 laser can safely treat all skin types by providing the longest amount of time between adjacent spots. This allows increased cooling of the surrounding tissue and lowers the risks of side effects.

PICOSURE

​

​

A unique energy device on the market that delivers a specific wavelength of light (755 nm) with a specialized lens that converts laser energy into pressure (instead of heat). This unique delivery disrupts particles responsible for a range of pigment conditions without the burning or damaging the skin. An additional Focus lens adds to the results by improving wrinkles, age lines, and acne scars. This delivery of energy makes this technology safe for all skin types.
