The Beauty of Non-surgical Facial Treatments

When it comes to aesthetic facial treatments, everyone’s needs are different. You may be concerned with wrinkles, uneven texture, skin laxity, or any number of skin imperfections. That’s why our be-You-tiful Medspa offers a variety of options that address a wide range of skin issues so that we can better tailor your facial treatment to help you achieve your desired results. In this blog, we’ll discuss some of the most popular non-surgical facial treatments we offer at our be-You-tiful Med Spa to help determine which is best for you.

Icon™ Laser

The Icon™ laser by Cynosure® is a facial treatment that uses intense pulsed light (IPL) to rejuvenate your skin. Also called a photofacial, IPL works by sending out varying wavelengths of light that target different colors in your skin. They can target dark pigments (like age spots or sun damage), breaking them up and destroying them, or red pigments like capillaries and rosacea. The light pulses also stimulate collagen production, improving skin tone, texture, and smoothness.

The Icon™ laser is non-ablative, meaning it doesn’t damage the surface of your skin. Some of the skin concerns the Icon™ Laser treats include:

  • Sun damage
  • Dark spots or age spots
  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Rough or uneven texture
  • Scars
  • Acne and acne scars
  • Skin laxity
  • Rosacea

Icon™ laser treatments take around 30 minutes and don’t require downtime for recovery. They are ideal for lighter complexions, and you may need multiple treatments for best results.

ThreeForMe™

ThreeForMe™ treatments are designed to treat fine lines, wrinkles, age spots, sun damage, and visible veins on the face simultaneously. ThreeForMe™ uses the Icon™ laser to target and break up pigmented cells in your skin. This procedure can also treat acne by reducing inflammation and sebum production.

The second technology used in the ThreeForMe™ treatment is a fractional microbeam laser. The laser gently penetrates the skin to stimulate collagen production, encouraging healthy cell turnover. This treatment improves skin tone and texture, resulting in a refreshed appearance with more youthful-looking skin.

When these two powerhouse facial rejuvenation treatments are combined in the ThreeForMe™ procedure, you will see a gradual improvement in the tone and quality of your skin. You’ll have fewer visible wrinkles, decreased discoloration, and a younger-looking, refreshed complexion.

ThreeForMe™ treatments take about 30–40 minutes and do not require downtime for recovery. Like the Icon™ laser, dark spots will fade, and you’ll see a gradual improvement in your skin quality.

Venus Viva™

The Venus Viva™ skin resurfacing treatments improve the quality of your skin and tighten it as well! This advanced technology uses microneedling to deliver radiofrequency (RF) energy under your skin. Microneedling is an excellent skin rejuvenation treatment, but it is even more effective when combined with RF energy. Microneedling causes tiny wounds in the skin, which signal your body to increase collagen production. RF energy heats the existing collagen fibers in your dermis, causing them to contract, tightening lax and sagging skin.

Venus Viva™ treatments take 15–30 minutes and require about 24 hours for recovery. You’ll start to see gradual results over the next few months as your skin improves from the inside out.
