Body Laser Resurfacing
BODY TREATMENTS
Our medical Laser is one of the most advanced treatments available that resurfaces your entire skin improving overall tone and texture.
Ice laser is a hair removal treatment, performed in a clinic using the Soprano ICE Platinum device. The machine gradually heats the dermis to a temperature that effectively 'kills' the hair follicle and prevents hair growth.
The cold tip: It really is very cold when it first comes in contact with the skin, so it takes a long time for you to even notice it's heating up
A gel is applied and there's constant contact with the skin: Each area is prepped with a clear gel (kinda like an ultrasound), and then the device is placed on the area and the technician glides it over the skin in quick motions until the treatment of that area is completed.
Less painful: Traditional IPL can feel like you're being flicked with a hot rubber band, but with ice laser the main thing you feel is heat. It's kept quite comfortable and warms up slowly.
In comparison to other laser treatments I've had it was the most pain-free I've ever experienced. The only hint of pain I felt was when we were treating my back door and I had missed a hair shaving, which made the machine zap and sizzle it, somewhat satisfyingly
It can be used on most skin and hair types: Yes, even tanned skin. While previous types of lasers have preferred light skin and dark hairs for optimal treatment, the Soprano ICE can be used successfully on deeper skin tones, as well as finer, lighter hairs.
Contraindications

TREATMENT CARE
On the day of your appointment, make sure to shave the areas needing treatment the night before
Immediately after treatment, there may be redness and swelling at the treatment area, this may feel like mild sunburn. Avoid sun exposure for 2 weeks to reduce the chance of hyperpigmentation or darker pigmentation. Use sunscreen SPF 30 or greater at all times throughout the course of treatment.
Avoid picking or scratching the treated skin. Do not use any other hair removal treatment methods (waxing, electrolysis or tweezing) that will disturb the hair follicle at the treatment area for 4-6 weeks after treatment. Shaving or depilatories may be used.
