  • Appointments and Scheduling

    A specific appointment is reserved for your treatment. Please arrive for your appointment on time. If you are more than 15 minutes late for an appointment, we will not be able to treat you, unless the schedule permits. Rescheduling without a 24 hour notice or missing an appointment will all result in a $25 office fee. Your late fee must be paid before your treatment. We schedule our appointments in advance, preferably to ensure you stay on track with your hair growth cycle and achieve maximum effectiveness. We request a 24 hour advanced notice of any cancellations for all appointments. Please leave a message on our answering service if our receptionist is not available. Due to safety regulations, children are not permitted in the laser treatment room area. We advise that they be supervised in the reception area. By initialing below, I acknowledge the policy explained above.

  • Melasma

    Melasma generally occurs when your hormones go astray. It’s a natural darkening of the skin caused by excessive production of melanin (the pigment that causes your skin to tan). These melanin cells exist at various depths in the skin making treatment difficult. Melasma will worsen when exposed to the sun. It can affect pregnant women, women taking birth control pills or hormone therapy and even some men who are genetically predisposed to this lifelong hyper pigmentation issue.

    Treatment: There are no guarantees of treatment results with any Melasma therapy. All treatment plans include the understanding that more than one treatment is usually necessary to achieve the desired cosmetic result, and that Melasma may worsen with treatment regimens. Options include:

    Lasers are one of the safest options for treating Melasma. The IPL is ideal for removing dark pigmentation. For best results, you will need more than one treatment.

    Microdermabrasion is a cosmetic technique that uses a mechanical medium for exfoliation to remove the outermost layer of dead skin cells from the epidermis.

    Bleaching Agents typically use 4% Hydroquinone and 0.1% Tretinoin.

    Often combination therapy works when single treatments do not.

    Possible Post-Procedure Experiences and or Risks

    Depending on the procedure being performed, you may experience some of the following:

    DISCOMFORT – Some discomfort may be experienced during treatment.

    REDNESS/SWELLING/BRUISING – Short term redness (erythema) or swelling (edema) of the treated area is common and may occur. There also may be some bruising.

    PIGMENT CHANGES (Skin Color) – During the healing process, there is a possibility that the treated area can become either lighter (hypopigmentation) or darker (hyperpigmentation) in color compared to the surrounding skin. This is usually temporary, but, on a rare occasion, it may be permanent.

    WOUNDS – Treatment can result in burning, blistering, or bleeding of the treated areas. If any of these occur, please call our office at (727) 518-1000.

    INFECTION – Infection is a possibility whenever the skin surface is disrupted, although proper wound care should prevent this. If signs of infection develop, such as pain, heat, or surrounding redness, please call our office immediately at (727) 518-1000 for instructions.

    SCARRING – Scarring is a rare occurrence, but it is a possibility if the skin surface is disrupted. To minimize the changes of scarring, it is IMPORTANT that you follow all post-treatment instructions carefully.

    EYE EXPOSURE – Protective eyewear (shields) will be provided. It is important to keep these shields on at all times during the treatment in order to protect your eyes from injury.
