Frequently Asked Questions
Laser treatments at Advanced Aesthetics are used for a variety of skin and hair concerns, including:
- Hair removal
- Skin rejuvenation and resurfacing
- Sun damage and age spots
- Acne scars
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Vascular lesions (spider veins, broken capillaries)
- Uneven skin tone and texture
- We use advanced laser and light-based technologies to target specific skin issues with precision and minimal downtime.
Laser devices emit concentrated light energy that targets pigment, hair follicles, blood vessels, or collagen, depending on the treatment goal.
Your skin absorbs the energy, triggering natural healing responses—like collagen production or the breakdown of unwanted pigment or vessels.
Advanced Aesthetics offers a range of FDA-cleared devices tailored to different concerns, such as:
- Laser hair removal: Permanent reduction of unwanted hair
- Fractional laser resurfacing: Improves texture, tone, and scars
- IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) photofacials: Treat sun spots, redness, and pigmentation
- Vascular laser treatments: Target and reduce visible blood vessels
Our team will recommend the right device and protocol based on your skin type and goals.
Many modern laser systems are designed to be safe and effective for a range of skin tones and types, but not all lasers are suitable for every complexion. That’s why our consultations include a skin assessment to match you with the safest and most effective treatment for your skin.
The number of sessions varies depending on the treatment:
- Laser hair removal typically requires six to eight sessions.
- Skin resurfacing and photofacials often need two to four sessions for the best results.
- Vascular and pigment treatments may show improvement after one to three sessions.
- We’ll provide a custom plan tailored to your goals.
Downtime depends on the type of laser used:
- Laser hair removal and IPL photofacials usually involve no downtime
- Fractional or ablative lasers may require a few days of redness, flaking, or peeling
- We’ll give you specific aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth recovery.
Most laser treatments involve minimal discomfort. You may feel a warming or snapping sensation. For more intensive procedures, we use topical numbing to maximize comfort. The level of discomfort varies by individual and treatment area.
Some treatments (like hair removal or pigment correction) show results within a few weeks. Others, like skin resurfacing, continue to improve over several months as new collagen forms. During your consultation, we’ll explain what results you can expect and when.
Results vary by treatment:
- Laser hair removal offers long-term hair reduction, though occasional maintenance may be needed.
- Pigment and vascular treatments can be permanent, but new spots or veins may appear over time.
- Resurfacing and collagen-boosting lasers improve skin quality long-term, but ongoing maintenance may be needed as skin continues to age.
You may be a great candidate if you:
- Have a specific skin or hair concern
- Are in good general health
- Are not pregnant or photosensitive
- Have realistic expectations about results
- Our team will evaluate your skin and medical history to ensure the best treatment match.
Laser treatment pricing depends on the treatment area, technology used, and the number of sessions needed. We’ll provide a detailed quote and package options during your consultation.
