Laser Treatments

Tattoo Removal:

How does it work?

Our Q-Switched Nd: YAG laser uses “Next Generation” technology to deliver high-energy light pulses. These light pulses are absorbed by the tattoo, which then breaks it down into tiny particles for the body to remove naturally.

Does Q-Switched laser remove all Color Tattoos?

Our laser is designed to work best on Blue, Black, Blue/black, red, green, and yellow colors.

How Many Treatments are typically required?

Treatment amounts depend on the size of the tattoo, color, and location. Your Youthful Aesthetics Provider will help you develop a treatment plan. We offer package options as well as individual treatment options.

What Can I Expect during the treatment?

Pain tolerance varies from person to person. Many describe the treatment as a rubber band snap to the skin. Typically, this treatment does not require numbing/anesthetic, but one can be requested for sensitive areas.

Pre-Laser Treatment Instructions:

No Accutane use 6 months before or between treatments
No sun exposure or use of tanning beds 4 weeks before or between treatments.

HAir Removal:

How does it work?

We assess each client individually based on skin type, coarseness of hair, and density. This allows our Youthful Aesthetic laser providers to customize treatment specific to your needs. Our virtually pain-free In-Motion cooling technology paired with a direct treatment technique allows for shorter treatment times while still providing hair removal to treat any part of the body with NO downtime!

How Many Treatments will I Need?

Hair growth occurs in stages, meaning not all the hairs on your body will grow during the same stage. Only the hairs during the “growth stage” will be affected by the treatment. Clinical research shows that a series of 3-6 treatments spaced between 1-3 months apart are required to achieve permanent hair reduction. This can be discussed more in-depth during your consultation with our specialists.

What Can I Expect During the Treatment?

The treatment is not considered painful. Our contact cooling and In-Motion technology will provide our clients with a comfortable session.

ClearLift Plus:

What Does This Laser Treatment Help with?

ClearLift® offers our clients the latest alternative to skin resurfacing and cosmetic surgery. It can be used to help with fine lines and wrinkles, scars, stretch marks, and some sun damage and age spots. It works by emitting short, yet very powerful bursts of light that reach underneath the skin’s surface. This stimulates collagen and breaks apart unwanted pigment. Since the pulsed light stimulates beneath the surface of the skin, it does not cause any ablation–which means NO DOWNTIME.

ClearLift® is the first laser treatment that is virtually painless, and is perfect for sensitive areas of the body, including hands, neck, decolletage, and face.

How Many Treatments Will I Need?

This will be determined with our Youthful Aesthetic Laser specialist. We offer 3-session and 6-session packages along with individual options for upkeep.
