Patient treated with 4 SmoothGlo treatments

The sun is your constant companion when you live in the Sonora Desert. Where there’s intense sunlight, there’s also the potential for sun damage to your skin. This can create the appearance of premature aging and steal the youthful look you’re hoping for.

You can mitigate the effects of sun damage on your skin with med spa treatments designed to address the signs of aging. These can include enhanced texture, rejuvenation, and improvements in skin tone. If the sun has loved your skin too well, but your skin hasn’t returned that love, consider a complimentary consultation at The Skin Clinic to learn more!

1. Lumenis SmoothGlo Treatment

A superstar among sun damage treatments, the SmoothGlo treatment is designed to focus on multiple signs of aging in a single session! It combines two technologies into one powerful treatment that not only delivers immediate results, but also creates cumulative improvements with each treatment.

If you have pesky spots or uneven pigmentation from sun damage or aging, the SmoothGlo protocol includes an IPL laser treatment to help even out your skin tone by targeting reds and browns. It targets those darker areas, breaking down the excess pigment and encouraging your skin to naturally fade them away, leaving you with a more uniform complexion.

The SmoothGlo treatment uses advanced dynamic muscle stimulation (DMST) and radiofrequency (RF) technology to deliver gentle energy pulses to your skin’s deeper layers and strengthen your facial muscles. This RF energy stimulates collagen production, which is like the building blocks of your skin while the DMST gives your muscles a “workout.” More collagen means firmer, smoother skin with fewer fine lines and wrinkles and stronger facial muscles gives your face a more lifted look.

2. Medical-Grade Chemical Peels

This simple but effective treatment can help to rejuvenate your facial skin in about an hour. It removes the top layers of skin to bring out the new, healthy skin beneath. You’ll find your skin’s texture improved while your skin works to repair itself from within!

3. ActiveFX Laser Skin Resurfacing

Laser skin resurfacing works to repair skin damage by penetrating the deeper layers of your skin to stimulate natural healing processes. It can improve the texture and tone of your skin while eliminating damage from the sun, including discoloration, lines and wrinkles, and sun spots.
