Sun exposure is on the biggest causes of aging skin.
And too much fun in the sun without protection can make anyone a victim. Light energy with shorter wavelengths, like UVA and UVB rays from the sun, penetrate the skin with ionizing radiation, altering your DNA and causing serious damage. In your earlier years, you may not notice changes in your complexion, but over time, age spots, wrinkles, fine lines, and other signs of skin damage come to the surface. You even run the risk of skin cancer. As a result, your once youthful skin loses the clarity, smoothness, and tightness it once had.

Recommended Treatments
Our facial peels shed away the top layer of your skin to remove sun-damaged cells and reverse signs of aging. Once your skin finishes peeling, you’ll have fresh, smooth, and soft skin.
The SkinPen is an FDA-cleared microneedling device used to treat sun damage and boost collagen production. Using your body's own platelet-rich plasma or human exosomes, growth factors continue rejuvenating the skin for long-term results.
A Plasma Pen treatment reduces sun damage by stimulating fibroblast therapy, which induces collagen production. Plasma energy, generated by combining electrostatic energy and nitrogen from the air, rejuvenates the skin and leaves you with a clearer more youthful complexion.
Intense pulsed light (IPL) treats hyperpigmentation from melanin (pigment-producing cells) build-up in the skin. Melanin absorbs light reducing the glow of your skin. An IPL FotoFacial transmits light based energy into heat and destroys hyperactive melanin, giving you a more evenly toned complexion. It is also effective at reducing red tones and fine lines that contribute to a more aged appearance.
