Types of Laser Treatments at Solana Aesthetics
Laser Resurfacing
Laser resurfacing uses targeted energy to remove the outer layers of damaged skin and stimulate collagen production, resulting in smoother, firmer, and more even-toned skin. It’s particularly effective for fine lines, sun damage, and textural irregularities.
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL)
IPL is a light-based treatment that targets pigment and vascular lesions. It’s one of the best treatments for sun spots, redness, rosacea, and overall skin tone correction with minimal downtime.
Skin Tightening
Energy-based skin tightening treatments use radiofrequency or laser energy to heat the deep layers of the skin, stimulating collagen and elastin production. Over time, this results in firmer, more youthful-looking skin — with no surgery required.
What to Expect During a Laser Treatment at Solana
Before your laser treatment, your provider will cleanse your skin and may apply a topical numbing cream depending on the treatment. Protective eyewear is provided. During the treatment, most patients feel a warming or snapping sensation. Treatment times range from 20 to 60 minutes depending on the area being treated.
Aftercare varies by treatment type. Some laser treatments require a brief recovery period with redness and peeling, while others have minimal to no downtime. Your provider will walk you through everything you need to know to protect and optimize your results.
How Many Laser Sessions Will I Need?
The number of sessions required depends on the specific treatment and the severity of your skin concern. Many patients see significant improvement after a single session, while others benefit from a series of 3 to 6 treatments spaced several weeks apart.
Is Laser Treatment Safe for All Skin Tones?
Not all laser treatments are appropriate for all skin tones. During your consultation, your provider will assess your Fitzpatrick skin type and recommend only treatments that are safe and effective for your specific complexion.
