Some specific laser treatments include:

  • Icon™ laser – For lines, wrinkles, facial veins, discoloration, scarring, stretch marks, hair removal, and more
  • ThreeForMe™ and intense pulsed light (IPL/photofacial) – For hyperpigmentation brown spots, wrinkles, sun damage, and vascular lesions
  • MonaLisa Touch® – For feminine wellness, increased comfort, and improved urinary control

If you want to improve the quality of your skin without surgery, these laser devices can address multiple skin flaws to help you avoid or delay the need for cosmetic surgery.
