The Fraxel® 1500
The Fraxel® 1500 offers the latest in fractional resurfacing technology. The Rios & Lapinski Plastic Surgery & Dermatologic Institute is the only group in the Joliet and Frankfort areas to have the device. Unlike older laser resurfacing technology which resulted in longer periods of healing, wound care, and downtime, fractional resurfacing yields excellent treatment of fine wrinkles, age spots and sun damage, melasma (areas of darker skin), and acne scarring without the need for special dressings, creams, or downtime. For more information on the Fraxel® 1500 and before and after photographs, visit www.fraxel.com.
Vascular Laser
Dr. Rios and Dr. Lapinski also have 532nm- KTP lasers which are specifically designed to target blood vessels. Many patients seek treatment for small blood vessels by their noses and cheeks, while others look to reduce or eliminate spider veins on their legs. Patients with rosacea or background redness also benefit from this laser.
Hair Removal
One of the most common applications of lasers today is the reduction of unwanted hair. Dr. Rios and Dr. Lapinski have lasers designed to remove hair in area such as the bikini line, upper lip, under arms, back, and legs. The 1064nm-Nd:YAG laser is safe for all skin types. Treatment for hair reduction requires multiple visits (typically 5) because only a small percentage of the hair on your body is growing at one time, and this is when the hair cells must be exposed to the laser light. With package prices for laser hair reduction, this affordable alternative to shaving and waxing may be right for you.
After evaluation of your skin, Dr. Rios and Dr. Lapinski can formulate an individualized plan to give you the healthiest appearing skin possible. Schedule an appointment at the Rios & Lapinski Plastic Surgery & Dermatologic Institute to find out more:
