Laser skincare and advanced pulsed light therapy are go-to treatments in Tucson because they offer non-invasive treatment for signs of sun damage like dark spots, fine lines, hyperpigmentation, and redness. But which treatment is right for you? At Maloney Plastic Surgery & Skin Care, we offer several laser and BBL treatments by Sciton, which represents the most innovative technology in laser skincare. Here’s a look at each treatment option, so you can choose the one that’s right for your sun-damaged skin before summer.
HALO
HALO is a customizable laser treatment that kickstarts the body’s natural healing response to bring out your youthful glow. It can target discoloration, enlarged pores, dull or dry skin, and other visible signs of sun damage and aging. The depth of HALO treatment is customizable, so your recovery period may be anywhere from 48 hours to a full week.
TRIBRID
HALO TRIBRID combines three different wavelengths of light for multi-dimensional skin treatment that is tailored to your needs. You can improve the surface of the skin, target pigmentation and discoloration, and then stimulate cell regeneration within the deepest layers of the skin—all in a single treatment session. Because TRIBRID can target multiple layers of skin at once, it addresses the widest range of common skin concerns, but it also has a longer recovery time. Your recovery period may be anywhere from 10-14 days depending on the depth of your treatment.
MOXI
MOXI is a great minimal downtime refresh treatment that delivers the best results after 3-4 treatment sessions. We like to think of MOXI as a “prejuvenation” treatment that helps to brighten and refresh the skin before serious sun damage sets in. With a few initial corrective treatments followed by maintenance visits every 3-4 months, you can reduce dark spots and pigmentation and encourage cell regeneration to prevent the need for more intense laser skincare treatments later on. Downtime from a MOXI treatment can be anywhere from 1-5 days. You can apply makeup to the skin just 24 hours after.
BBL HEROic
BBL HEROic is an intense pulsed light treatment, so it is comfortable and requires minimal downtime. It’s most effective for treating rosacea, freckles, sunspots, and small blood vessels. After BBL HEROic treatment, you can apply makeup to the skin within 24 hours. Like MOXI, this treatment yields the best results with repeated treatment sessions, although you will see a noticeable difference in the skin after one treatment, and the results will continue to develop over time as the skin’s natural healing mechanisms go to work.
At Maloney Plastic Surgery & Skin Care, you can choose from a wide range of non-invasive medi spa treatments that will rejuvenate your skin and help you look your best in every season. Schedule a consultation to discover the right skincare treatments for you and create a customized treatment plan.
