Spectra™

Anyone who has unwanted tattoos, or is interested in non-ablative skin rejuvenation, has darkened scars, or brown birthmarks that could be expected to be improved with this treatment that understands the risks, costs and time necessary to achieve the full benefit of the procedure and who has realistic expectations of the ultimate outcome.

Spectra™ works by focusing on the pigment in your ink. The laser breaks down the pigmented cells and reduces tattoo color in just a few treatments. Over a few sessions and weeks, the immune system will flush away the broken-down ink naturally through elimination processes. No painful treatments, or scabbing or bleeding.

This non-ablative fractionated laser can be used to treat acne scarring and textural improvements. It is suited for all skin types, and the unique hand piece allows the physician to customize treatment depth while maximizing safety and efficacy of treatment.

Wearing UV protection and a hat can help protect your revitalized skin and prevent sun damage. Taking these steps can enhance and preserve your results. This is especially important after treating melasma and other unwanted pigment in your skin.

With virtually little to no downtime, you may
immediately return to your daily activities. Some treatments may create a minor erythema that could last 1-3 hours.
