Quad

The Quad treatment is a simple treatment that combines four treatments to target the main concerns of skin damage and aging. eMatrix improves fine lines, abnormal texture, pores, and scars, Sublime tightens lax skin, photorejuvenation corrects sun damage, and Matrix IR addresses deep wrinkles.

The Sublative Rejuvenation with eMatrix is a unique procedure that uses radiofrequency to deliver an effective but controlled ablative and non-ablative fractional treatment for wrinkles, scars, large pores and better texture of the skin.

Photorejuvenation treatments alleviate redness and brown spots on the face with minimal downtime. This is also called Photofacial, Fotofacial or IPL, it is a non-invasive procedure that makes your face look more youthful by removing sun damage, signs of rosacea and reducing pores or acne spots.

The sublime combines laser light energy and radiofrequency energy to stimulate the production of new collagen.

The Matrix IR™ by Syneron™ combines fractionated 915nm diode laser and bipolar radiofrequency for a non-ablative treatment reducing facial wrinkles and scars.

The Quad treatment will help reverse sun damage, laxity, wrinkling, and skin tone to achieve a more youthful appearance.

If your skin is tanned by sun exposure or artificial tanning lotion you should allow at least 4 weeks for the tan to fade before treatments.

Potential side effects are bruising, skin wound, infection and scarring, hypopigmentation or hyperpigmentation, and surface irregularities.

Prior to treatment all potential risks and side effects will be discussed with you by your medical provider and cosmetic coordinator.

Most patients have redness and swelling with eMatrix for a few hours to 3 days after the treatment (occasionally it can last longer). You may apply make-up to the treated area immediately after the Sublative rejuvenation procedure. Tiny crusts develop and are present for about 5-14 days, but these are easy to camouflage with makeup or even without it after the first one to two days. Results will develop over time and with subsequent treatments. Full results can be appreciated at three to six months following the last treatment. Maintenance treatments may be necessary. After Photorejuvenation, the treated area usually appears flushed. Redness and swelling may occur, which usually dissipates within a day. Brown spots will darken and flake off within 1-2 weeks after treatment. In the meantime, you can conceal these spots with makeup which you may apply immediately after treatment if you desire.

Wrinkles can be improved with fillers or botulinum toxin treatments and tissue tightening can be achieved with other treatments such as Theramge. Other alternatives include Fraxel Dual and CO2 laser resurfacing. Since this is a combination of treatments results are apparent and help with many different skin concerns.

There are other combined treatments that will reverse the effects of aging as well. No other treatment could be necessary except for potentially botulinum toxin for dynamic wrinkles and fillers to replace volume.
