Eraise the Sings of Aging with Trinity

May 1st, 2012

Trinity Total Facial Renewal is a three-step treatment composed of three non-invasive procedures. The treatment is accomplished sequentially during the same visit. With several treatment sessions clients achieve a more younger and rejuvenated appearance.The Photofacial treatment is used for skin color correction, ReFirme Skin Tightening and Matrix IR targets wrinkles. Photofacial RF Skin Color Correction is an effective treatment that refines and evens skin tone, lightens dark spots and reduces fine capillaries to help you achieve an overall radiant and even skin tone and texture. ReFirme Skin Tightening is a collagen stimulator that tightens lax skin and helps remove deep wrinkles. Initially, there is an immediate contraction of existing collagen fibers, but with time, the brow, jowls, neck and cheek areas will continue to improve due to the delayed collagen remodeling response. Matrix IR successfully fills in fine wrinkles, helps to remove sun damage and fills indented scars.  The heat conducted to collagen fibers stimulates a short-term reaction of collagen contraction, followed by a long term process of new collagen remodeling, a process which is facilitated by the surrounding tissue. The Matrix IR treatment results in improved appearance of facial fine lines and wrinkles.

CROSS Acne Scar Treatment

April 27th, 2012

Unfortunately once the acne has healed it can leave behind permanent scars. One of the less common, yet effective treatments for deeper pitted acne scars is known as CROSS, or the chemical reconstruction of skin scars. This procedure uses higher concentrations of Tri Chloroacetic Acid (TCA) to rebuild collagen in atrophic acne scars. TCA can either be applied over the entire face for an all over peeling effect or in concentrated areas for intense collagen reconstruction. Patients with lighter skin tones are the ideal candidates  for TCA peels and will need an average of 3-5 treatments for best results.

April 26th, 2012

Acne is a common skin condition which causes pimples or zits on the face, chest, arms or back. The breakouts can consists of either whiteheads, blackheads or red inflamed cysts. Intense Pulsed Light Treatments (IPL) is an effective yet safe method to treat acne without any downtime or negative side effects. The IPL system releases yellow, green and red light which is emitted in a series of short pulses. The yellow and green light destroys the p-acne bacteria which causes acne and the red light targets the sebaceous gland to reduce oil production. The heating of the skin also reduces the inflammation of the current breakouts. For best results an average of at least three pretreatments is recommended in combination with a chemical peel.
