The summer months can wreak havoc on our skin, but help is on the way thanks to new laser technology now available at a laser center and plastic surgery practice in St. Louis. Genesis Cosmetic Surgery Center & Laser Center recently upgraded its facility to offer five new laser devices that treat a variety of skin conditions and can be used for such procedures as laser hair removal, acne treatment, and spider vein removal.
The Center uses lasers manufactured by Alma LasersTM. The Center's Director, Timothy R. Jones, MD, selected the latest laser technology with the help of the Center's clinical aestheticians and registered nurses, who understand the importance of safe and effective laser skin rejuvenation treatments. Patients are already seeing dramatic improvements in their skin appearance though laser treatments.
"For one, spider vein removal and laser hair removal in St. Louis are easier and more effective than ever before because of our laser technology," says Dr. Jones. "But now that summer's winding down, we're seeing other laser procedures growing in popularity, including wrinkle treatment and depigmentation."
It's widely understood that sun exposure can damage skin over time. St. Louis laser skin rejuvenation treatments are an effective way to improve the appearance of sun spots, wrinkling, redness, and other hallmarks of sun damaged skin. The skin specialists at Genesis Cosmetic Surgery in St. Louis can combine laser treatments with other procedures, such as microdermabrasion and facial peels, to revitalize the texture and tone of skin subjected to hot summer rays.
"It makes sense to treat the problem as soon as possible after damage occurs," adds Dr. Jones. "Many of our St. Louis laser skin rejuvenation patients take all the proper precautions when out in the sun, including wearing sunscreen and protective clothing. But skin damage can still happen, which is why our patients want to refresh and restore their skin with laser treatments. It's about both looking better and maintaining optimal skin health."
Missouri residents looking to revitalize their skin understand the importance of trusting their health and appearance to the staff at a board certified plastic surgeon supervised medical practice. Genesis Cosmetic Surgery and Laser Center offers advanced technology along with medical-grade skin care products and treatments that can be administered only under the supervision of a physician.
"Unlike salons and day spas," says Dr. Jones, "The staff at Genesis have direct access to a board-certified St. Louis plastic surgeon who can provide guidance as needed. I'm proud to be that surgeon, and I take my supervisory responsibilities seriously, protecting patient safety and providing a full range of cosmetic services all under one roof."
