Laser & Skin Tightening in La Mirada, CA | Iconic Skin Clinic

Laser Skin Tightening Techniques

Laser skin tightening, like other laser treatments, is non-surgical and non-invasive, which means there are no incisions or sutures involved. Patients are put under local anesthesia in order to ensure optimal comfort during the procedure. During the treatment, a high-energy laser is passed over the treatment area, which heats skin tissue and stimulates collagen production in the body. The laser also seals off blood vessels and stimulates the production of new collagen. Collagen is a naturally occurring protein in the body that is responsible for skin elasticity. Stimulating collagen production in the body aids in improving the appearance of loose skin, wrinkles, and fine lines.

Laser Skin Tightening Results

Laser skin tightening uses light energy to gently heat the skin and connective tissue below, which in turn liquefies fat cells and causes the skin to tighten. Patients can see results soon after one treatment, though a course of treatments is often recommended to achieve the best results.

Laser Hair Removal

Laser hair removal is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that removes unwanted hair by targeting active follicles below the skin’s surface. With laser hair removal, hair can be removed from larger areas. The laser only affects actively growing hair follicles. Therefore, the treatment time required is significantly less than that of electrolysis. With electrolysis, each hair follicle must be removed individually.

Morpheus 8

SARD is a minimally-invasive, non-surgical procedure that ablates and remodels the unwanted fat that stubbornly sits just under the skin. SARD treatments cause the skin to contract and tighten, and the results are visible after the first treatment. The Morpheus8 SARD device uses a tiny insulated needle tip that is inserted just under the skin. The insulated needle tip allows heat to surround the fat and melt it. At the same time, it stimulates collagen remodeling and produces new collagen and elastin. This remodels the subdermal layer of the skin. The Morpheus8 is used to improve skin laxity and contour the face, neck, arms, stomach, thighs, and buttocks.

The Morpheus8 uses controlled radiofrequency energy to heat the skin to a precise temperature. This energy produces heat that targets the adipose layer of the skin. This energy also stimulates collagen remodeling. It produces collagen, elastin, and new blood vessels, which improve skin texture and tone.
