The short answer is no. Once the hair follicle is damaged, it cannot grow new hair. However, there are invariably a few hair follicles that manage to partially escape the laser during each treatment. Some of these follicles may be only stunned and will need to be retreated.

That's a very hard question to answer. And if someone answers it with a very short, easy answer spitting out one number they are not truthful. Laser hair removal is a process.

The procedure uses a pen with fine needles that puncture the skin and create a controlled skin injury in order to rejuvenate the skin. The idea is that the damage caused by the needles encourages your body to send healing agents (elastin and collagen) to the area to repair them. By making tiny columns of drama in the dermis the body is forced to make new collagen to fill them in and heal them. The new collage makes the skin look and feel slicker, tighter, and more youthful.

Opus Plasma is considered an energy-based devices. It works by creating targeted areas of trauma in the skin and stimulating a wound-healing response, which in turn yields an improvement in tone and texture. Like many modern energy-based devices, the Opus Plasma is a micro-ablative, fractional technology. This means that it treats only tiny portions (fractions, as it were) of the skin in order to control tissue damage and minimize healing time.

The metal pins of the Opus Plasma device are charged with radiofrequency energy. It’s this energy that reacts with atmospheric pressure in order to create the plasma that “injures” the skin—but it also has an added benefit.

Morpheus8 RF Microneedling combines a microneedling treatment with radiofrequency energy to rejuvenate resurfacing treatment that stimulates collagen production. As the deeper layers of the skin are targeted, collagen production will reorganize itself to begin a natural anti-aging process. No damage occurs to the dermis, and this procedure delivers excellent results.

The benefit of Morpheus8 is that it can be performed on any part of the body, but the most common areas are the face, neck, and abdomen.

The Morpheus treatment also has the advantage of tightening loose skin in those same areas. Morpheus8 RF Microneedling is used primarily for the following conditions: Wrinkles Acne scars Skin discoloration Results will vary depending on each patient’s skin-related concerns.

Similar to the microneedling procedure, Morpheus8 sends radiofrequency energy deep into the skin’s deepest layers to trigger collagen and elastin production that microneedling alone cannot do. We will apply numbing cream to the treatment areas 1hour before the procedure. The Morpheus8 handheld device is used to make minuscule perforations to the skin. Then the RF energy penetrates deep into your dermal layer, creating a tightening effect. Your whole treatment is about two hours and delivers exceptional results.

Two to three weeks after your Morpheus8 session, the collagen production begins to work, making your skin brighter, tighter with an overall smoother complexion.

After your aesthetic specialist completes the microneedling portion, your PRP solution is then applied to your skin to improve your skin’s texture to stimulate collagen production.
