Photo Skin Rejuvenation

Photo skin rejuvenation treatments were developed and first introduced by Board-certified dermatologist, Patrick Bitter Jr. MD as a non-invasive method of photorejuvenation to improve the appearance of the skin.

Photo skin rejuvenation treatments utilize light to effectively treat rosacea, facial flushing, red chests and necks, brown spots, sun damage, fine lines and wrinkles, and irregular skin pigmentation in all skin types. Photo damaged skin with hyperpigmentation (brown spots); skin laxity, enlarged pores, wrinkling, and telangiectasia (veins) can be improved with photo skin rejuvenation treatments. The light is used to rejuvenate skin of the face, neck, chest, arms or hands. Specific settings are selected for each treatment area for optimal results. Visible improvement is achieved with little discomfort and minimal risk.

The process begins with a consultation with the medical technician. A treatment plan and schedule is designed for your skin type and skin areas which will respond best to photo skin rejuvenation technology. The treatment receives a high degree of patient satisfaction because there is no downtime, no scarring, discomfort is minimal, and treatments are easy.
