SmoothGlo™ Laser Skin Resurfacing

What is SmoothGlo™?

SmoothGlo™ is an innovative sequential skin treatment designed to target the three most prominent signs of aging: tone, texture, and volume. By addressing all three aspects in a single session, SmoothGlo™ helps patients dramatically reverse visible signs of aging.

SmoothGlo™ laser resurfacing treatment uses two cutting-edge technologies, one after the other, to target different layers of skin and get rid of the visible signs of aging.

  1. IPL Photofacial: The first stage of SmoothGlo™ is an IPL (intense pulsed light) treatment. IPL uses different wavelengths of light to target specific areas of the skin. The light energy penetrates the skin and is absorbed by the abnormal pigment cells. This causes the cells to break down and be eliminated by the body.
  2. RF Microneedling: The second stage of SmoothGlo™ is RF Microneedling. This skin treatment uses radiofrequency (RF) energy to heat the skin and stimulate collagen production. The RF energy is delivered through needles that are inserted into the skin. This helps to tighten the skin and improve its texture, tone, and volume.

This combination of photofacial and microneedling technology can help reverse signs of aging improving:

  • Skin tone reducing redness and pigment
  • Skin texture, including fine lines and wrinkles
  • Skin volume, including sagging

Benefits of SmoothGlo™:

  • Improved skin texture and tone
    SmoothGlo™ laser resurfacing works from the inside out to stimulate collagen production and smooth out rough, uneven skin.
  • Reduction of pigmentation and sun damage
    With the power of IPL technology, say goodbye to stubborn dark spots and hyperpigmentation.
  • Minimization of fine lines and wrinkles
    RF microneedling targets aging concerns by promoting skin tightening and firmness.
  • Enhanced overall radiance
    Experience a luminous glow from within, boosting your confidence and leaving you feeling fabulous.

SmoothGlo™ FAQs

  • How long does it take to see results from SmoothGlo™ laser resurfacing?

    Many people see immediate results after their first skin treatment. However, the full effects of SmoothGlo™ will be seen over the course of a few weeks as collagen production is stimulated, and new skin cells are generated.

    You may need multiple treatments to achieve your desired results. The number of treatments will depend on your individual goals and the condition of your skin. Our team will create a custom treatment plan for you during your free consultation.

  • How long does a SmoothGlo™ session take?

    A typical SmoothGlo™ session lasts approximately 30 minutes. The exact duration may vary depending on individual skin needs and treatment goals.

  • Is SmoothGlo™ right for me?

    This procedure works best if you are looking to minimize skin pigmentation and would like to improve the overall texture, volume, and appearance of your skin.

  • Is there any downtime after a SmoothGlo™ skin treatment?

    Your skin will feel warm for a few hours after treatment. You may experience redness and mild swelling for up to four days after treatment. Minor scabbing will develop on the treatment areas which will naturally heal and shed off a week after treatment. Your overall skin texture may feel dry; however, these are normal side effects that will subside after 4-7 days of treatment.

  • How many SmoothGlo™ sessions will I need to see results?

    The number of sessions required varies depending on your skin type and goals. Many people see noticeable improvements after just one session, but for optimal results, 3-4 treatments may be recommended. We will create a personalized skin treatment plan tailored to your needs.

  • What should I do before and after my SmoothGlo™ skin treatment?

    Before your appointment, avoid using any harsh exfoliants or products that may irritate your skin.

    After the treatment, it's important to avoid sun exposure for at least one week and apply sunscreen daily to protect your skin and maintain results.
