How does it work?
Facial phototherapy using intense pulsed light has been shown to decrease redness, minimize broken capillaries, decrease the size of enlarged pores, reduce dark circles under the eyes, lighten age or brown spots, and improve fine lines caused by premature aging or sun damage through stimulation of natural collagen production within the skin.

The FotoFacial RF® rejuvenates the skin non-invasively using pulsed light and gentle radiofrequency current. This tightens your own collagen, and stimulates the production of new collagen months after treatment for progressive lifting and tightening. The cost estimate of facial phototherapy and radiofrequency combined is $800 per session, with a package of three offered for $2000.

How is it administered?
The pulsed light laser emits gentle pulses of light energy combined with heat directly onto the skin surface. Most patients feel a heat sensation during the treatment that is not painful. Others may experience slight discomfort, usually described as a momentary sting, or like the snapping of a rubber band against the skin. A topical anesthetic and/or cooling device is available to minimize discomfort. Protective eyewear is used during all phototherapy treatments. Fotofacials are most often spaced three weeks apart, for four to six sessions. Additional touch-up treatments may be necessary to help maintain the desired effect after a year or more.

Any quoted cost is an estimate, and can vary according to your needs. Individual pricing for any medical treatment will be discussed at the time of your complimentary consultation.
