By investing in the most technologically advanced lasers available, SKIN Medical Spa can offer you individualized treatments and visible results. After each visit, you will see a difference in the way your skin looks and feels.


After studying and testing many types of laser technologies, we have chosen to employ Candela's Gentle YAG, Gentle LASE, and VBeam, as well as the Lumenis One Laser. We have chosen these lasers because, simply put, they offer the best in sophisticated technology, safety profiles and the greatest efficacy.



IPL photofacial treatment

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) Photofacial Treatment

For our Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) Photofacial treatments, we have chosen the Lumenis One, which is the most technologically advanced platform ever developed for aesthetic medicine. You will see long lasting, unparalleled results with no downtime.

Photorejuvenation with IPL is the most versatile of all treatment options. IPL is effective on photodamaged skin, age spots, brown spots, broken capillaries, and the redness from rosacea. IPL treats areas where sun damage is often most visible, including the face, neck, chest, and hands.
Lasers for Aesthetic med spa

IPL treats the damaged superficial layer of the skin, while delivering thermal energy to deeper tissue. Clinical studies are now underway to quantify the effect this energy has on collagen stimulation, which firms and tightens the skin.



laser hair removal

Laser Hair Removal

Laser Hair Removal works by targeting the pigment located in the hair follicles. The hair follicle absorbs the laser light and then converts the light to heat. The heat damages the follicle and inactivates the cell's ability to produce hair without affecting the cells that surround it.

You will see significantly less hair with each treatment, ultimately resulting in your goal of permanent hair reduction. Hair grows in 3 cycles: active, dormant, and shedding/falling out. Hair must be in an active growth stage during treatment, which is why multiple treatments are necessary to achieve desired results.

You will experience safe, quick, and effective hair removal with our state-of-the-art hair removal lasers. We have chosen TWO FDA-approved hair removal lasers: Candela's GentleLASE and GentleYAG. Our highly trained practitioners will choose the system that is best for your skin type.

Only Candela lasers feature the Dynamic Cooling Device (DCD™) to maximize comfort, ensure safety, and provide the best overall results. The Dynamic Cooling Device cools the upper layers of the skin prior to the laser burst. The result is added patient comfort and safety.



skin tightening

Skin Tightening

Our skin tightening treatment is delivered using Candela's Gentle YAG technology. The Gentle YAG tightens by heating the underlying layers of the skin and forming new collagen. The result is smoother, younger looking skin. The Gentle YAG's patented epidermal cooling system, the Dynamic Cooling Device (DCD™), protects the skin with every laser pulse, allowing for quick results and increased patient comfort.

This is a revolutionary approach to skin tightening and the treatment of wrinkles. This FDA approved therapy is clinically proven to reverse the signs of aging.



VBeam laser

The Vascular Beam (VBeam) Laser

The VBeam Laser, or Vascular Beam Laser, is a pulsed dye laser. It emits a beam of light to heat a targeted area of vascular tissue. This heat effectively coagulates broken capillaries, which are then naturally absorbed by the body during the healing process. For added patient comfort, the VBeam laser is equipped with the Dynamic Cooling Device (DCD™). This feature cools the upper layers of the skin prior to the laser burst. The result is added patient comfort and safety.

VBeam technology is used in skin rejuvenation procedures, as well as the treatment of vascular lesions. Facial and leg veins, port wine stains, rosacea, and wrinkles are treated with the VBeam.



No matter which treatment you choose, our state-of-the-art lasers and highly trained practitioners are here to offer you the greatest safety, maximum comfort, and expert results.
