Laser Hair Removal
The Health & Rejuvenation Center uses the most advanced StarLux IPL pulse light by Palomar. In 1996, Palomar became the first light-based technology company to receive FDA clearance for Permanent Hair Reduction. Since then, we have continued to develop more powerful and effective technology to achieve the quickest possible hair clearance.
Pulsed Light hair removal works by emitting pulses of intense light into the hair follicles. The light is absorbed by the pigment in the follicles and converted to heat. The heat then loosens the hair and disables the cells responsible for growing new hair.
This system gives a rapid hair reduction with less discomfort and less treatment time than pre-existing products and at a cost that is more affordable to the doctor and the patient.
Finally, a hair removal solution for men and women that produces long-lasting results across the full range of unwanted hair problems. This breakthrough technology uses broadband, Intense Pulsed Light™ (IPL™) technology to "damage" hair follicles for long-term hair removal. IPL systems for hair removal go by many names including the StarLux® system, by Palomar. This system has shown to be a successful method for reducing unwanted, unsightly hairs. Numerous published studies in professional medical journals attest to the IPL system's safety and long-term effectiveness.
The IPL system hair removal process is called photo-epilation, which is based on the principle of selective photothermolysis. This means that the light energy is absorbed in the target hair follicles while sparing the surrounding, healthy tissue. Unlike conventional laser systems, IPL systems utilize a broad light spectrum with wavelengths ranging from 590 to 1200 nm (green, yellow, orange, red and infrared).
They also emit light energy in very carefully timed bursts, or pulses, to:
• Maximize the effectiveness of the treatment
• Decrease the risk of skin damage
• Minimize patient discomfort
IPL systems treat the hair by directing light energy through a light guide placed near the patient's skin. A thin layer of transparent gel covers the treatment area to focus the light energy and cool the top skin layer. The light energy heats and damages the hair follicle, typically causing the hair itself to fall out from the follicle. IPL system technology allows your physician to provide a procedure that is gentle and non-invasive, with nominal side effects.
With its powerful, innovative software, IPL system treatment parameters can be selected by your physician according to an individual's specific skin color, hair color and hair density. This major advantage allows the physician to customize each individual treatment based on personal experience, as well as the unique attributes of each hair follicle.
As a result of this computer-generated precision, the IPL system has proven effective on the widest range of hair colors, from auburn to brown and dark black hair. Most important of all, the IPL system successfully removes hair from all skin types -- from porcelain-white through olive to darker complexions.
In addition, IPL system technology enables the physician to efficiently remove hair from any part of the body, no matter how deep the follicles may reside. Treatment of sensitive areas like the lips, ears, nose, underarms, and bikini line can usually be easily tolerated.
Another IPL system advantage is its wide treatment area, enabling the device to cover more area in substantially less time. In fact, approximately 100 -200 hairs can be treated with each flash of the light so that large swaths of hair on the legs, back and chest can be treated quickly in a single session. At the same time, IPL systems can be very precisely focused, so that hair is eliminated from delicate places.
Multiple laser treatment sessions are typically required for long-lasting hair removal. In a recent clinical study, researchers from Cornell and Duke Medical Centers reported an average hair loss of 64% at 6 months or more of follow-up after multiple treatments. Study results also confirmed that the IPL laser hair removal system uniquely achieves significant long-lasting hair removal through selective cell destruction to hair follicles.

Brown Spot Removal
Sun spots (age spots), also known as lentigines, are harmless, flat, brown discolorations of the skin which usually occur on the back of the hands, neck and face of people older than 40 years of age. These spots, more than anything else, give away a person's age. Sun spots are caused by the skin being exposed to the sun over many years, and are a sign of sun damage. If you do not believe that these brown, ugly marks on the back of your hands and face are caused by sunlight, look at the skin of your inner thigh; you will see that it is completely devoid of age spots. Sun spots are harmless and do not need to be treated from a health standpoint unless they are changing in shape and color, or are getting bigger than the surrounding sun spots.
Palm Beach Laser offers laser removal (laser treatments) of lentigines (age spots), as well as other methods (our services) to reduce and prevent this type of skin damage. To learn more about removing age spots and sun spot removal, contact us for consultation.

Photofacial Rejuvenation
What is IPL?
Intense Pulsed Light, commonly known as IPL, delivers high intensity computer controlled pulses of light that penetrate the skin and heat the sub-surface layers. The heating action damages or destroys problem conditions like excess pigment and unwanted spider veins, while stimulating healthy, new collagen. A series of IPL treatments can offer the benefits of a medium depth laser resurfacing or chemical peel without blisters, burns or long recovery time.
Who Are the Best Candidates for IPL?
These treatments are best for those who have:
• Red, flushed faces (This can be reduced by 80 to 90 percent!)
• Sun-damaged skin
• Hyper-pigmentation
• Enlarged pores
What Are Treatments Like?
Generally, 4 to 6 treatments are recommended at 3-week intervals. Each full-face treatment takes about 45 minutes. Many patients describe the sensation to be like the snap of a rubber band on the skin. There is no discomfort following the treatment. The depth and degree of heat is highly controlled, so there are few risks and you may resume most normal activities right after an IPL treatment. Your skin may appear flushed, and tiny capillaries may appear more visible. Brown spots can also appear darker and you may experience some slight swelling, but all these changes fade over a period of hours to a few days.
What Results Can I Expect?
Beginning with your first treatment, your skin will have a more even tone, with a smoother look and feel. Sunspots will fade, pore size will shrink, and fine wrinkle lines are reduced. Skin redness, flushing and dilated capillaries gradually decrease. Intense Pulsed Light treatments offer a very high measure of patient satisfaction. A recent study showed that 96% of IPL patients would recommend the treatment to others. Begin your series today and restore natural beauty to your skin with no downtime!
Metabolic Testing
(Skin, Cholesterol, Glucose, and Blood Type)
The Body Balance Metabolism Test is non-abrasive and quick. It only takes 15-20 minutes. This test includes a questionnaire, a number of chemical tests (urine and saliva), blood pressure, pulse, Ph, and various other tests. The results of these tests reveal your body type and in what ways your body chemistry is off balance. The results will provide specific recommendations regarding diet and nutrition supplements suited for you body composition. It takes 2 to 3 days to get the report with a plan of action for balancing, with customized supplementation for your body type.
