If you’re looking for skin treatments that improve the skin from the surface down to the deepest layers, this is your go-to list of top cosmetic devices for glowing, radiant skin.
Dr. Aeria Chang is a medical doctor who specializes in aesthetic medicine to help you look and feel your very best. She started Beatitude Aesthetic Medicine in San Diego in 2008, and she has helped thousands of clients not only boost their confidence, but also love their skin again.
eLos FotofacialTM
If you have brown spots, damage, or broken capillaries from years of sun exposure, eLos Fotofacial may be right for you. This device treats the face/neck and chest. These areas of the body get the most sun exposure.
Here’s how it works: eLos Fotofacial uses a combination of RFE (radiofrequency energy) with pulses of laser light to deeply penetrate the skin to target areas of hyperpigmentation. Results last a long time, but every patient is different. Some patients may need to come in for touch ups every so often to maintain optimal results.
As an added plus, the intense pulsed light stimulates the skin’s production of collagen, improving the skin from deep within. This device is safe for most skin tones, but a consultation with Dr. Chang will determine if you are an ideal candidate.
Venus VivaTM
If you have fine lines or wrinkles, scars, sagging skin, enlarged pores, or brown spots, Venus Viva resurfacing may be the right option for you.
No lasers or surgery are needed, and this non-invasive treatment offers outstanding results in just a few sessions. The face, neck, and décolletage can be treated.
The type of energy this device uses is called radiofrequency. It heats the collagen layer of the skin and boosts collagen production. As the skin recovers from treatment, new collagen is formed. This allows the underlying structure to be stronger, tighter, and smoother than before.
This treatment is considered a facial resurfacing treatment, so it rejuvenates, refreshes, and renews the skin for a more youthful appearance. Venus Viva is safe for ALL skin types and skin tones. Treatments take less than 30 minutes and you’ll need about 3 to 4 treatments (spaced apart) to get optimal results.
Fraxel DUAL
Fraxel DUAL also targets just the areas that need treatment, so healing is accelerated because only the treated skin is affected. This laser skin resurfacing device smooths away fine lines and wrinkles, fades brown spots and sun damage, and improves the texture and tone of the skin.
The Fraxel DUAL treatment boosts collagen production in the deep layers of the skin, so improvements will continue for several months after treatment. About 3 to 5 treatments are needed (full face treatment takes about 30 minutes), spaced out 2 to 4 weeks apart. The chest, neck, and hands can also be treated.
Lutronic Genius
Our newest addition to Beatitude Aesthetic Medicine is the Lutronic Genius device. Using pulsated radiofrequency energy, this treatment penetrates into the deep layers of the skin to coagulate treated areas and increase collagen production.
Tiny gold-plated microneedles are briefly injected into the skin to an exact depth so that Dr. Chang can address your specific skin concerns. A measured RF energy pulse is then passed through the needles to deliver ultra effective treatment that:
- Reduces fine lines
- Smooths wrinkles
- Improves deep creases
- Fades facial scars (including acne scars)
- Tightens loose skin
- Lifts the skin
- Rejuvenates the treated areas (face/neck/body)
Treatments take anywhere from 30 to 60 minutes, and a series of treatments is needed to achieve optimal results. Most clients get treatment on a Friday to recover over the weekend. Results can last for years, but it is important to eat properly, exercise regularly, apply sunscreen daily, and use high-quality skin care products for best long-term results.
