Alladerm specializes in state of the art CUTERA laser treatments to lift and tighten skin without surgery, reduce pores and improve skin texture, restore skins vitality, vanish lines and wrinkles, remove sun spots and signs of aging, and look years younger! Alladerm Offers the following Cutera Laser Treatment Services:
Titan
The Cutera Titan® gives you an all-natural option to enhance skin tone. Titan uses light energy to heat the dermis deep beneath your skin's surface. Without surgery, recovery time, or injections, Titan is an ideal solution for your face, abdomen, arms and more.
How does the Cutera Titan Treatment Work?
Titan utilizes a safe infrared light to heat the dermis well below the skin's surface. During the procedure, the skin's top surface (epidermis) is protected through continuous cooling with the Titan hand piece.
What Areas can be treated?
Virtually any part of the body which contains skin that has become loose over the years, due to aging or post-pregnancy. The most common areas on the body that we treat are the face, neck, decollete, abdomen, breasts and upper arms. Titan XL can also be used on the inner thighs and buttocks. Titan XL is safe for all skin types.
What Can I Expect?
When the hand piece is placed on the skin, it will feel cool and comfortable due to the sapphire crystal tip reinforcement. When the pulse is delivered you may feel a heating sensation, lasting briefly during each pulse.
What areas respond best to the Titan procedure?
Patients have been successfully treated on many areas of the body. The most common areas to be treated are the jawline, under the chin, and the abdomen.
How many treatments will I need?
Although a single treatment has produced very good results for many patients, to achieve optimal results it is recommended to have a total of three (3) treatments one month apart. Dr Zander will advise you as to the number and frequency of treatments recommended for optimal results.
What happens after the treatment?
Immediately following the treatment, you may notice some redness and mild swelling in the treated area. Both should dissipate within a few hours.
Who is a Candidate for Titan?
Patients with loose skin under the jaw.
Face Particularly Jowls.
Back of Arms.
Post partum to reduce abundant skin.
Any skin color and any age.
Sagging or drooping eyelids or brows.
Laser Genesis
Laser Genesis Skin Therapy uses advanced science to achieve vibrant, even skin tone and smooth texture in both men and women. Light penetrates deeply into the skin where collagen is manufactured, stimulating an increase of new collagen production. Unlike harsher methods, this is done without destroying the upper layers of skin (non-ablative). The Laser Genesis procedure safely, discretely and effectively treats scars, uneven textures, fine line wrinkles and large pores. The result is skin with smoother texture and a healthier appearance. The skin is gently warmed during this procedure, and daily activities may be resumed right away. This is truly a rejuvenating experience with no downtime.
What does the Treatment Do?
Genesis skin rejuvenation employs laser light targeted to the dermis, the deeper layer of the skin, where collagen is made. The laser heats the dermis causing new collagen production that continues over time. The result is more even skin tone, tighter pores and a smoother skin texture. Laser also targets the microvasculature (tiny vessels) beneath the skin surface, decreasing diffuse redness and ruddy complexions. Large pore size, uneven skin color and texture, diffuse redness and "bags under the eyes" are also effectively treated.
How does the Cutera Lase Genesis Treatment Work?
By gently heating the upper dermis well below your skin's surface, Laser Genesis stimulates collagen regrowth. Additional heat is generated in dilated capillaries to reduce redness. Genesis of the entire face is generally performed in less than one hour. Because the procedure is quite comfortable, no anesthesia or medication is necessary.
What Can I Expect?
The treatment results are often subtle. On average, you may require four to six treatments in order to achieve optimal results. Every patient's condition and needs vary. Over the course of four to five treatments, Laser Genesis can help restore the skin's youthful glow and appearance by smoothing out uneven texture caused by aging, sun damage or scars. You will see a more even, healthy complexion as large pores are reduced in size, and minor imperfections are diminished. The individual treatment results are subtle, but the overall effect of multiple treatments can be quite dramatic.
How many treatments will I need?
The number of treatments needed depends upon the problem being treated but usually ranges from four to six treatments spaced three to four weeks apart. Results are generally seen after just one treatment, but a series of treatments is required for optimum results. Depending on the concern being addressed, your provider may recommend other treatments in conjunction with Laser Genesis, such as Vitalize Peel or Titan non-surgical facelift. These may be alternated with Genesis if needed.
What is Laser Genesis used for?
Laser Genesis improves the skin's overall appearance, particularly on face, neck and chest, decreasing fine line wrinkles and restoring even skin tones. Laser Genesis evens out acne scarring and is particularly effective in combination with other treatments such as chemical peels. Genesis can also be used to improve the appearance of other scars anywhere on the body. Genesis tightens pores and improves skin texture, smooth's ruddy complexions and diffuses excessive facial redness, including that caused by rosacea.
How long will my Laser Genesis results last?
One of the greatest advantages of Laser Genesis is that the results continue to accumulate after each treatment and continue far beyond your last treatment. In fact, accelerated collagen production continues following Laser Genesis, peaking at about 12 weeks after your last treatment, then continuing at a steady increased rate. Because the natural aging process is of course continuing, it is difficult to state precisely how long results will last, but benefits seem apparent for several years. Sun protection and attention to skin care are necessary to maintain optimal results. In the case of acne scarring and rosacea, it is necessary to control the underlying condition in order to avoid further skin disruption.
Pearl
Pearl is the "one laser to choose" to renew your skin's surface with quick, visible results. Pearl treats fine lines on the face and neck, uneven skin texture and light & dark spots caused by sun damage.
How does the Cutera Pearl Treatment Work?
The Pearl laser replaces the entire top sun-damaged layer of skin with new healthy skin. Simultaneously, it sends heat to deeper layers of the skin stimulating new collagen growth, filling out and decreasing fine lines and wrinkles.
What Can I Expect?
The Pearl treatment takes approximately 10-15 minutes for a full face. The treatment feels like a series of brief pinches. During a Pearl treatment, the top layer of the skin is treated with pulses of light. A portion of the epidermis (skin surface) is gently removed and a natural protective dressing is formed on the skin's surface. After treatment, the skin will look like it is sunburned. Dr. Alla will apply oxymist spray on the skin to keep it moist, clean and protected. You will be given a one-week supply of a complete skincare kit. The skin will need to be kept moist for 3-4 days. Since you cannot wear sunscreen during this time, you will need to wear protective clothing and limit sun exposure for a few days following the treatment. You are free to wear make-up starting on day 3. After 3-4 days, the top layer of skin peels off revealing new, healthy, vibrant skin underneath. New collagen growth continues for 4 to 6 weeks post-treatment. Unlike "fractional" treatments, Pearl treats the entire face, minimizing the number of required treatments. Typically, only 1-2 treatments are necessary to renew your skin.
Who is a candidate for a Pearl treatment?
Patients of any age with sun damage, uneven skin texture and fine lines and wrinkles can benefit from Pearl treatments; however, the most common age group seeking treatment is between 25-60.
What areas will respond best to a Pearl treatment?
Pearl will smooth the skin's texture, as well as soften fine lines and wrinkles, on the face, neck, upper chest and hands.
How many treatments are recommended?
Many patients experience excellent results after one treatment. Others may want a second treatment for best results.
Does Cutera have an FDA clearance for the Pearl laser?
Yes, Cutera received FDA clearance in March 2007 for Pearl for skin resurfacing and the treatment of wrinkles. Pearl is used primarily on the face but has also been used on the neck, upper chest and hands.
Pearl Fractional
The brand new Cutera® PearlTM Fractional laser is a fractional, single treatment solution for the improvement (treatment) of a variety of skin conditions, including dyspigmentation, photoaging, lines and wrinkles, enlarged pores, irregular skin texture, and acne scarring.
How does the Cutera Pearl Fractional Treatment Work?
The PearlTM Fractional simultaneously targets the epidermis for pigment, texture, and tone; and the dermis for pigment, collagen remodeling, and resulting dermal thickening. PearlTM Fractional treatments have shown significant improvements in age spots and sun damage, skin texture, acne scarring, and lines and wrinkles. Patients with light-to-medium skin tones (skin types I - III) and skin imperfections due to aging, sun damage, and acne scarring will benefit from a PearlTM Fractional treatment. PearlTM Fractional allows us to treat patients we could not help as effectively before - particularly those with acne scarring and deeper lines and wrinkles.
What does "fractional" mean? How does the Pearl Fractional treatment work?
Fractional therapy describes a treatment that exposes only a fraction of the skin to the laser beam in a pattern of tiny dots. During the procedure, laser pulses place tiny holes in the skin. The process removes columns of damaged tissue and then stimulates the body's own natural process for creating healthy new skin, full of fresh collagen. This plumps the skin from below, creating more volume and repairing photo damage and other imperfections.
What Can I Expect?
Most patients describe the treatment as a series of fast, hot pinches. Pearl Fractional uses a new laser wavelength, which results in less pain and less downtime. A topical numbing cream is applied to the skin prior to treatment to alleviate some discomfort. The doctor may choose to augment topical creams with other medications based on patient need. Supplemental oral medication and local anesthetic is sometimes required. Results are immediate and progressive. Improvement continues over weeks and months as your skin continues to produce new collagen in the treated area, producing longer beneficial changes associated with a healthy, youthful appearance.
Who is a candidate for a Pearl Fractional treatment?
Patients with light-to-medium skin tones and skin imperfections due to aging and sun damage will benefit from a Pearl Fractional treatment.
What areas of the face can be treated?
Pearl Fractional can treat the entire face and is uniquely effective in the delicate periorbital (around the eyes) and perioral (around the mouth) areas. These areas often show the first signs of aging and can be the most challenging to treat.
When will I see results? How soon can I wear make-up?
Many patients see improvement one week after treatment. Patients should plan to take a long weekend relaxing at home. Maximum results are visible in one to three months. Patients may apply make-up five days after treatment.
Are there any restrictions on my activity after a Pearl Fractional treatment?
After treatment, the skin will look like it is sunburned. The Dr. will apply oxymist spray on the skin to keep it moist, clean and protected. You will be given a one-week supply of a complete skincare kit. The skin will need to be kept moist for 5 days. Since you cannot wear sunscreen during this time, you will need to wear protective clothing and limit sun exposure for a few days following the treatment. You are free to wear make-up starting on day 5. After 5 days, the top layer of skin peels off revealing new, healthy, vibrant skin underneath.
How many treatments are recommended?
Most patients notice significant improvement after just one treatment.
Can Pearl Fractional be part of a combination therapy treatment?
Many patients have a Pearl Fractional treatment in combination with other cosmetic therapies. These include other Cutera laser and light procedures, such as Pearl, Laser Genesis and Limelight. Discuss combination treatment options with The Dr.
How does Pearl Fractional compare to other fractional laser treatments?
Pearl Fractionals unique laser wavelength offers a safe but intense treatment to reverse the signs of aging. This combination gives patients dramatic results in a single treatment with approximately one week of recovery.
Limelight / IPL
The Limelight Facial is a new, non-invasive approach to skin rejuvenation using Cutera's Limelight. The procedure offers the advantage of improving skin tone and surface imperfections associated with aging and photo damage.
What areas can be treated?
The Limelight treatment is ideal for any part of your face, neck, decolletage, skin redness, arms, hands and telangiectasia (tiny spider veins) or brown spots. Light (low contrast) brown spots, which were previously difficult to resolve, respond very well to the Limelight treatment.
How does the Cutera Limelight Treatment Work?
The doctor can customize your Limelight Facial to your skin type and selectively treat the brown and/or red-pigmented areas on your skin. It's the heating of the pigmented brown or red cells that causes the therapeutic effect.
What Can I Expect?
When the pulse of light is delivered, patients will experience a mild pinching or stinging sensation. Anesthesia or pain medicine is typically not required. Treatment time depends on the area of the body being treated. However, most treatments should take less than one hour. One to three treatments are usually sufficient to see results. Additional treatments may be recommended, especially for excessively sun-damaged skin. Immediately following treatment, brown spots will start to darken and your skin may appear slightly red. The treated area may be mildy swollen. This typically lasts a few hours and possibly a day or longer. Make-up can be applied to cover the redness.
When will I see results?
Within one to three weeks, the darkened spots will flake off and fade. Diffuse redness or telangiectasia will decrease and your mottled complexion will improve.
Will the spots and redness reappear over time?
New brown spots, telangiectasia and diffuse redness may appear with new sun damage; however they too can be treated. Remember to always apply broad-spectrum sunscreen when outdoors to minimize sun damage and the appearance of new spots and diffuse redness. Rosacea is chronic and cannot be "cured" with any laser or light source, however its appearance can be improved.
Vascular
The Cutera Vascular combines the ideal laser wavelength with the most flexible parameters to deliver a superior vascular laser system. The Treatment treats a broad range of vessels from tiny spider veins to deep blue reticular veins quickly, safely, and effectively. Patients can experience outstanding results with minimal bruising or blistering.
How does the Cutera Vascular Vein Therapy Work?
The Cutera Vascular Vein Treatments deliver pulses of light energy that causes the blood within the vein to coagulate. This eventually destroys the vessel, which is later reabsorbed by your body. Blood flow will then be redirected to veins deeper below your skin's surface, where it should be.
Who can be treated with Vascular Vein Therapy?
The Cutera Vascular Vein Treatment features a unique design and long wavelength that allows treatment of patients of most skin tones. The Cutera Vascular Vein Treatment can remove unsightly veins from all parts of the body. Small, facial veins (or "telangiectasias") can be treated quickly without bruising or complication. Spider veins and large blue leg veins can also be treated with excellent results. Knotty varicose veins are not good candidates. Blood blisters or "hemangiomas" respond very well to CoolGlide Vein Therapy, usually with just one treatment. Patients with port wine stains and other vascular lesions that had given up on finding a solution have been overwhelmed by the success of their Cutera Vascular Vein Treatments.
How many treatments will I need?
Often, patients find that one or two treatments are sufficient. However, the number of treatments necessary depends on the number, color, and size of the vessels being treated. Since individual results vary, ask the Dr. about your specific condition.
Do the treatments hurt?
Most patients experience a stinging sensation as the pulses of energy are delivered through the hand piece. Following the treatment, the pain is minimal to nonexistent.
What happens after the treatment?
Following the treatment, some redness or bruising may occur. When larger veins are treated, a tan or brownish pigment may persist for a few weeks or months following treatment. Patients who have leg vein treatments may be advised to wear support hose for a short period of time.
When will I see results?
Most patients find that the majority of the treated veins have shown significant improvement within two to six weeks of treatment. However, your final results may not be apparent for several months. Over time, it is possible for new veins to appear, but these too can be removed with the Cutera Vascular Vein Treatment.
Laser Hair Removal
Alladerm offers one of the best laser hair removal systems on the market. Its unique design, longer wavelength) and innovative cooling design allow extremely effective, safe and permanent results for women and men of all skin tones (light, dark and tanned).

Cutera 3D
What does the Cutera 3D Treatment Do?
3d Skin RejuvenationTM combines Limelight - Photo FacialTM, Laser Genesis and Titan®, resulting in noticeably improved skin tone, texture and tightness. Every person ages at a different rate and in different ways. Some develop redness, age or sunspots. Others have large pores, fine lines, wrinkles or lax skin. You may have one, two or all of these conditions. Cutera's 3D Skin Rejuvenation takes a three-tiered approach to rejuvenating your skin for all of these conditions. Limelight Photo Facial is a light-based procedure, which addresses problems right at the skin's surface - redness, mottled complexion, freckles and sun damage. Laser Genesis utilizes a laser to soften fine lines and wrinkles; shrink pores and decreases or eliminates redness found deeper in the epidermis. Laser Genesis has been proven to stimulate the creation of new collagen, giving your face a more youthful appearance. Titan is the newest category for skin tightness and fitness. The Titan uses infrared light to heat tissue in the deep dermis. Together you can have the 3D Skin Rejuvenation experience!
TruSculpt
The truSculpt System from Cutera is a growing choice for non-invasive fat reduction. truSculpt can be used for body contouring, body sculpting and reducing the appearance of cellulite. It allows treatment in areas not normally indicated for liposuction (such as around knees, ankles and armpits), is non-invasive and is less traumatic. There is no downtime, and according to Kouros Azar, M.D., a board certified plastic surgeon, "Patients can immediately return to exercise and work." Additionally, people with different body types can benefit from this treatment, including skinnier patients.
The Treatment
A single truSculpt treatment typically lasts one hour for each area (leg, abdomen, or both thighs). Patient discomfort is very mild. Usually the first pulse or two (each lasting four minutes) feels very warm. Uniform heating also helps reduce pain.
How it Works
This new RF (radio frequency) aesthetic device kills fat cells. TruSculpt heats fat to temperatures between 44 and 46 degrees Celsius in four minute pulses. It permanently eliminates fat cells. The ergonomic hand piece offers precise navigation of hard to reach areas, including curves and small regions.
Results
Patients can expect roughly 30% reduction of fat and unwanted bulge. Best results are seen around 4 to 6 weeks after the treatment, although many claim an immediate loss. TruSculpt reviews imply that the procedure rates higher for fat reduction vs. cellulite reduction. Dr. Azar stated, "I believe results will be a permanent solution with two treatments, as long as patients maintain their existing body weight." In conclusion he reported, "We've had an amazing response to the truSculpt . All patients we have treated to date have chosen a second treatment. truSculpt also allows us to capture patients not interested in surgery."
Injectables
Injectables are used to add volume, create angles with injectable cosmetic medicine. Alladerm offers a few of the most popular Injectables in the market. Injectables are a smart alternative to cosmetic surgery or complementary procedure to help you look your best at all times. These treatments can be used for everything from the lip augmentation, wrinkle treatments and scar removals, thin lips, and dark or puffy under eyes. Alladerm offers Injectables such as:
Botox
What is BOTOX® Cosmetic?
BOTOX® "injection" or "Botox shot" is the term most widely used to describe the procedure of administering the Allergan BOTOX® Cosmetic treatment. BOTOX® injections utilize Botulinum Toxin Type A to treat wrinkles. BOTOX® injections were originally slated to treat neurological disorders; today. BOTOX® injections are widely used to remove facial lines, especially frown lines, "crows feet", and forehead lines.
How does BOTOX® Cosmetic work?
In laypersons terms, BOTOX® simply keeps the muscles that cause frown lines from contracting. This causes the skin to become smoother. Normally your brain sends electrical messages to your muscles so that they contract and move. BOTOX® keeps that message from getting to the muscle that causes the wrinkles. Technically, BOTOX® is injected directly into the corrugator and procures muscles. It then goes on to enter the nerve endings to block the release of acetylcholine, the chemical that causes muscles to contract. BOTOX® works to block the release of acetylcholine and, as a result, the muscle doesn't receive the message to contract. Once the muscles are at rest, the skin becomes smoother, creating a more natural and relaxed appearance.
Where can BOTOX® Cosmetic be used?
The most common areas are frown lines, forehead lines, and crow's feet. Other areas include the neck and upper lip.
How long does BOTOX® Cosmetic last?
This depends entirely on the patient, but a single treatment of BOTOX® will normally be sustained for approximately three months. You will notice a gradual fading of its effects. At this point you will return to the doctor for your next treatment. Usually, BOTOX® treatment is required only three to four times a year. Symptoms may vary throughout the course of the condition, and so the degree of relief and duration of effects varies from person to person. Acceptable safety in long-term treatment has been well established. With dosing specific to treat frown lines, this same product is now marked as BOTOX® Cosmetic. However, formal clinical evaluations of long-term treatment have not been conducted.
Is treatment of BOTOX® Cosmetic painful?
Discomfort is usually minimal and brief. Prior to injection, your physician may choose to numb the area with a cold pack or anesthetic cream. The entire procedure takes approximately 10 minutes. Most patients are in and out of the physician's office without downtime following BOTOX® Cosmetic treatment. Side effects associated with the injection include localized pain, infection, inflammation, tenderness, swelling, redness, and/or bleeding/bruising.
Juvederm
JUVÉDERM® is a smooth consistency gel made of hyaluronic acid - a naturally occurring substance in your skin that helps to add volume and hydration. The doctor eases JUVÉDERM® injectable gel under the skin to instantly restore your skin's volume and smooth away facial wrinkles and folds, like your "smile lines" or "parentheses" (nasolabial folds - the creases that run from the bottom of your nose to the corners of your mouth). JUVÉDERM® provides smooth and natural looking results. JUVÉDERM® is the only hyaluronic acid (HA) filler FDA approved* to last up to 1 year. JUVÉDERM® New JUVÉDERM® XC is now formulated with an anesthetic for a more comfortable patient experience.
What is JUVÉDERM® indicated for?
JUVÉDERM® Ultra and JUVÉDERM® Ultra Plus XC injectable gels are indicated for injection into the mid to deep dermis (below the outer layer of skin) for the correction of moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial folds (the creases running from the bottom of your nose to the corners of your mouth, aka smile lines or parentheses).
What is hyaluronic acid?
Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance found in all mammals that helps to hydrate and add volume to your skin. In addition to its use as an aesthetic treatment, hyaluronic acid has also been used for more than 20 years for injection into arthritic joints to aid movement as well as for eye surgeries and wound repair.
Is treatment with JUVÉDERM® injectable gel painful?
Injections may cause some discomfort during and after the injection. The smooth consistency gel of JUVÉDERM® allows your doctor to administer it easily and smoothly. And, JUVÉDERM® is injected directly into the skin using a fine needle to reduce injection discomfort. Additionally, JUVÉDERM® is formulated with lidocaine for a more comfortable treatment experience. Dr, Zander may choose to numb (anesthetize) the treatment area to further minimize discomfort.
How long does treatment usually take?
The injection process generally takes only about 15 minutes. You'll also need to allow time to consult with Dr. Zander prior to treatment.
How long do the results of Juvederm last?
Juvederm on average lasts about 4-6 months. But the area of the face that the product is injected into makes a big difference for the duration. For example, in the mouth area (lips, marionette lines) there is a lot of muscle movement, which tends to break down the filler more quickly. In the area under the eyes (referred to as the "tear trough" procedure), the product can last up to 9 months because there is little tissue movement.
Radiesse
What does the treatment do?
Radiesse is a revolutionary wrinkle treatment and injectable filler used for wrinkle reduction and removal. The ideal way to achieve wrinkle reduction is by replenishing lost volume. With RADIESSE wrinkle filler, you welcome back your own natural collagen to smooth out the signs of aging.
How does Radiesse work?
Radiesse wrinkle filler's unique formulation stimulates collagenesis - the production of new collagen - which results in increased volume for natural looking wrinkle correction that may last a year or more in many patients. In just one syringe, many patients can achieve long-lasting youthful results. RADIESSE wrinkle filler is simple, quick, comfortable and convenient, with immediately visible results that last, more and more people are discovering that it is the natural choice for maintaining a more youthful appearance.

Innovative technology has prolonged the healthy lifespan to the looks of the people. Alladerm offers few of these of the most effective and popular treatments.
DermaStamping
DermaStamping is a micro needling tool that has become very popular in a very short time, this works similar to Derma roller. Derma stamp is a handy tool for women who have problems with stretch marks, acne scars and wrinkles.
Why Should you do DermaStamping?

DermaStamping also leaves your skin free from long term wounds. Unlike the laser treatments, dermaStamping does not put your skin from through the suffering that comes with deep repeated injuries.
Platelet Rich Plasma
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is blood plasma that has been enriched with platelets.
As a concentrated source of autologous platelets, PRP contains (and releases through degranulation) several different growth factors and other cytokines that stimulate healing of bone and soft tissue.

DermaSweep
Are you ready for polished perfection?
DermaSweep offers you the latest innovation in skin rejuvenation with a microdermabrasion system that eliminates the messy and the painful crystals other systems use to remove dead skin.
What is Microdermabrasion?
Microdermabrasion is a skin-revitalizing treatment that helps repair skin that is damaged from the sun, scars, acne and the unwanted effects of aging. A trained professional uses gentle abrasion with suction to remove (or peel) the dead, outer layer of skin in order to stimulate and reveal new healthy skin underneath.
What is Skin Resurfacing or Skin Rejuvenation?
Skin resurfacing and skin rejuvenation are terms commonly used to describe microdermabrasion. There are different methods of skin resurfacing ranging from sand blasting to chemical peels. DermaSweep eliminates the discomfort of sand blasting and utilizes particle-free technology.
How does DermaSweep Work?
DermaSweep features a closed system with a variable level vacuum pump that gently lifts the skin surface as the device "sweeps away" the dead layer of skin in a precise and controlled manner. The skin is left smoother as the vacuum action of the wand stimulates blood flow and cleans the pores. The increased blood flow encourages collagen formation thus firming and toning the epidermis. Using the Epi-Infusion option, skin specific solutions can be directly applied to the skin leaving patients with fresher-feeling and better-looking skin.

Levulan
Levulan Photodynamic Therapy (Levulan PDT) is an advanced treatment for actinic keratoses (AKs), or rough-textured, dry, scaly patches on the skin that can lead to skin cancer. Levulan PDT, a 2-part treatment course, is unique because it uses a light activated drug therapy to destroy AKs. Levulan Kerastick Topical Solution is applied to the AK. The solution is then absorbed by the AK cells where it is converted to a chemical that makes the cells extremely sensitive to light. When the AK cells are exposed to the Blu-U blue light illuminator, a reaction occurs which destroys the AK cells. The short, 2-part treatment course is convenient and fits your lifestyle: Low downtime*, No prescription to fill, No daily medication to remember, Excellent cosmetic response1, No scarring reported to date. Levulan is commonly used to effectively treat acne. Levulan eliminates sebasceous glands thereby eliminating any further flare up of acne.
Who should NOT take Levulan?
Levulan Kerastick should not be taken by patients who have cutaneous photosensitivity at wavelengths at 400-450 nm, porphyria, or known allergies to porphyrins, and in patients with known sensitivity to any of the components of the Levulan Kerastick for Topical Solution. Levulan Kerastick has not been tested on patients with inherited or acquired coagulation defects.

What are the possible side effects?
The most common side effects include scaling/crusting, hypo/hyper-pigmentation, itching, stinging, and/or burning, erythema and edema. Severe stinging and/or burning at one or more lesions being treated were reported by at least 50% of patients at some time during the treatment.
What precautions should be taken?
Patients should avoid exposure of the photosensitive treatment sites to sunlight or bright indoor light prior to and at least 48 hours after blue light treatment. Exposure may result in a stinging and/or burning sensation and may cause erythema or edema of the lesions. Sunscreens will not protect against photosensitivity reactions caused by visible light.

Laser Genesis
Laser Genesis Skin Therapy uses advanced science to achieve vibrant, even skin tone and smooth texture in both men and women. Light penetrates deeply into the skin where collagen is manufactured, stimulating an increase of new collagen production. Unlike harsher methods, this is done without destroying the upper layers of skin (non-ablative). The Laser Genesis procedure safely, discretely and effectively treats scars, uneven textures, fine line wrinkles and large pores. The result is skin with smoother texture and a healthier appearance. The skin is gently warmed during this procedure, and daily activities may be resumed right away. This is truly a rejuvenating experience with no downtime.
What does the Treatment Do?
Genesis skin rejuvenation employs laser light targeted to the dermis, the deeper layer of the skin, where collagen is made. The laser heats the dermis causing new collagen production that continues over time. The result is more even skin tone, tighter pores and a smoother skin texture. Laser also targets the microvasculature (tiny vessels) beneath the skin surface, decreasing diffuse redness and ruddy complexions. Large pore size, uneven skin color and texture, diffuse redness and "bags under the eyes" are also effectively treated.
How does the Cutera Lase Genesis Treatment Work?
By gently heating the upper dermis well below your skin's surface, Laser Genesis stimulates collagen regrowth. Additional heat is generated in dilated capillaries to reduce redness. Genesis of the entire face is generally performed in less than one hour. Because the procedure is quite comfortable, no anesthesia or medication is necessary.
What Can I Expect?
The treatment results are often subtle. On average, you may require four to six treatments in order to achieve optimal results. Every patient's condition and needs vary. Over the course of four to five treatments, Laser Genesis can help restore the skin's youthful glow and appearance by smoothing out uneven texture caused by aging, sun damage or scars. You will see a more even, healthy complexion as large pores are reduced in size, and minor imperfections are diminished. The individual treatment results are subtle, but the overall effect of multiple treatments can be quite dramatic.
How many treatments will I need?
The number of treatments needed depends upon the problem being treated but usually ranges from four to six treatments spaced three to four weeks apart. Results are generally seen after just one treatment, but a series of treatments is required for optimum results. Depending on the concern being addressed, your provider may recommend other treatments in conjunction with Laser Genesis, such as Vitalize Peel or Titan non-surgical facelift. These may be alternated with Genesis if needed.
What is Laser Genesis used for?
Laser Genesis improves the skin's overall appearance, particularly on face, neck and chest, decreasing fine line wrinkles and restoring even skin tones. Laser Genesis evens out acne scarring and is particularly effective in combination with other treatments such as chemical peels. Genesis can also be used to improve the appearance of other scars anywhere on the body. Genesis tightens pores and improves skin texture, smooth's ruddy complexions and diffuses excessive facial redness, including that caused by rosacea.
How long will my Laser Genesis results last?
One of the greatest advantages of Laser Genesis is that the results continue to accumulate after each treatment and continue far beyond your last treatment. In fact, accelerated collagen production continues following Laser Genesis, peaking at about 12 weeks after your last treatment, then continuing at a steady increased rate. Because the natural aging process is of course continuing, it is difficult to state precisely how long results will last, but benefits seem apparent for several years. Sun protection and attention to skin care are necessary to maintain optimal results. In the case of acne scarring and rosacea, it is necessary to control the underlying condition in order to avoid further skin disruption.

Latisse
LATISSE® (bimatoprost ophthalmic solution) 0.03% is the first and only prescription treatment approved by the FDA for inadequate or not enough eyelashes, growing them longer, fuller and darker. LATISSE® makes lash growth possible because of its active ingredient: bimatoprost. Although the precise mechanism of action is not known, research suggests that the growth of eyelashes occurs by increasing the percent of hairs in, and the duration of, the anagen (or growth) phase. Lashes can grow longer, thicker and darker because bimatoprost can also prolong this growth phase.
