One-of-a-Kind Technology Improves a Multitude of Age-Related Skin Conditions

The Skin Center Medical Spa treats aging skin with state-of-the-art fractional skin resurfacing technology.

A freckle here, a wrinkle there - it's just a part of getting older, right? Not anymore - a new type of skin resurfacing technology is changing the face of skin care by simultaneously improving skin tone, smoothing out fine lines and evening out skin discoloration without the downtime or side effects associated with traditional skin resurfacing technology.

Fractional Skin Resurfacing is a revolutionary new type of technology that works by treating only a portion of the targeted skin at a time. During a treatment, the lasers deliver hundreds of microbeams to the skin. These microbeams penetrate well below the epidermis and into the dermis, sparing the tissue surrounding the beams from damage. The tissue within these beams initiates a natural healing process that accelerates the formation of new, healthy tissue and the fractional treatment of skin allows for faster healing with visible results in skin color, texture, tone, fine lines and wrinkles. Fractional skin resurfacing is most effective when performed in a series of sessions because each treatment treats only 20 to 25 percent of the skin.

The Skin Center Medical Spa, with locations in Pennsylvania and Ohio, offers fractional skin resurfacing with the Fraxel® SR Laser and the Palomar LUX1540 Fractional™ Laser. "These lasers are a tremendous advancement in skin resurfacing," said Dominic Brandy, M.D., founding medical director of The Skin Center Medical Spa. "We are seeing remarkable improvement in sun-damaged and aging skin. This technology is a non-invasive way for men and women to improve the overall health of their skin without the redness or side effects seen with traditional laser resurfacing technology."

Fractional Skin Resurfacing can be used on any part of the body; it is not just for facial treatments. Delicate skin suffering from damage due to sun exposure on the neck, chest or other area of the body can be treated. The end result is impressive change to fine lines and wrinkles and a smoothing out of skin tone and color with virtually no down time.

The Skin Center Medical Spa specializes in non-invasive and minimally invasive aesthetic procedures that can improve a person's appearance with little or no downtime.

Offering the most sought-after facial rejuvenation treatments on the market including Botox® Cosmetic, wrinkle fillers, gentle laser treatments, chemical peels, microdermabrasion and laser hair removal, The Skin Center Medical Spa is the foremost authority in advanced age-defying skin treatments.
