What are laser treatments?

Laser treatments use light energy to stimulate beneficial effects. There is a broad range of laser treatments today, with every laser working uniquely to create the desired outcomes. 

Advantage Primary Care uses some of the medical industry’s leading laser technology to offer the best results. 

When might I need laser treatments?

Laser treatments are aesthetic services that enhance your appearance or improve areas you want to change. Some of the reasons you might opt for laser treatments at Advantage Primary Care include: 

• Skin tightening
• Skin resurfacing or rejuvenation
• Treatment of sun-damaged skin
• Removal of benign (noncancerous) lesions like moles
• Reduction or removal of spider veins
• Reduction or removal of unwanted hair on the legs, chest, back, or elsewhere
• Tattoo removal 

Laser treatments can stimulate impressive changes, but they’re not right for every need. So, if you have a specific aesthetic concern and you’re not sure which treatment is the best one for your needs, the Advantage Primary Care team can recommend a laser procedure or another aesthetic treatment like Botox®, dermal fillers, or chemical peels. 

How do laser treatments work?

Every laser works in a unique way based on the treatment goals. For example, with laser skin resurfacing, the laser removes the uppermost layer of old skin cells to reveal your fresh and undamaged skin below it. 

Similarly, lasers can target specific areas, like age spots on your face or tattoo ink on your body, to break down the pigment or ink and clear your skin.

Other laser treatments work beneath your skin, stimulating your body to make new collagen and elastin, both of which support tight and firm skin. 

The Alma Harmony XL PRO system works uniquely. It's a powerful, all-in-one solution that combines the latest technology with aesthetic research to provide fast, long-lasting results. The FDA has approved the Harmony XL PRO for 65 uses, including laser tattoo removal, spider and varicose veins treatment, mole removal, and more. 

Most laser treatments require a series of sessions to get the optimal results. The Advantage Primary Care team can work with you to create a treatment schedule convenient for you.
