Summertime, and the Living is Easy...

Summer is the time for picnics, trips to the beach (wearing sunscreen, of course!) and nice, smooth legs. Summertime is the best time to get started on painless, permanent hair removal.

MIMA Dermatology has the prescription for permanent hair removal, and it is the Aesthera Isolaz, rated one of the top products from the 2008 American Academy of Dermatology. The Isolaz is the first system on the market that combines the safety and effectiveness of intense pulsed light with a painless delivery system.

In years past, permanent hair removal meant painful sessions with a laser that left skin tender and discolored, but Aesthera began to develop a system that uses the cooling power of evaporation to cool the skin as the intense pulsed light treats active hair follicles. The result? Smooth legs, underarms and bikini areas.

Hair can be most effectively eliminated during its growth phase, and in most of us around 40 % of our hair follicles are in an active growth phase. Results are seen from the first treatment, and our aestheticians take advantage of the hair’s growth cycle to permanently eliminate the hair at its root.

Finally, you can be free of unwanted hair, and you can dare to be bare!

Fraxel as a Treatment for Actinic Keratosis...

This Just In!

Fraxel® re:store treatment noted by NY dermatologist Dr. Ariel Ostad as an effective new treatment for actinic keratosis

Skin cancer is the most common type of cancer in the US. The Skin Cancer Foundation and physicians recommend using sunscreen with SPF of at least 30, but if you, like patient Alexis Hasen, spent years baking in the sun and are left with sun spots and pre-cancerous lesions known as actinic keratosis, there is a new solution to the old laser modailities and creams that carried unwanted downtime.

The Fraxel re:storeTM laser is now FDA cleared for treatment of actinic keratosis, and Dr. Ariel Ostad reports to Fox News that the Fraxel re:store laser is effective in treating actinic keratosis and pre-cancerous cells that lie even beneath the skin’s surface. The Fox News story originated in NY and aired in dozens of markets throughout the country.
