PHOTO FACIAL
This revolutionary technology is ideal for treating rosacea, acne, uneven or dark pigmentation, wrinkles, and facial veins. The Aurora couples IPL technology with radiofrequency, which allows the use of lower light energy, making it the safest IPL available for the skin's surface. The treatments are easily tolerated, with only a slight tingling feeling, and sometimes the sensation of a simple pinch, and side effects are rare. Topical numbing cream is available, if desired, but not necessary for most patients. Photofacials take about 30 minutes and have no downtime. For more information, please contact our office for a consultation.
