NON-SURGICAL - IPL TREATMENTSIPL "The Fotofacial"Intense pulsed light (also called photo rejuvenation) is a new, non-ablative technique to treat fine lines and wrinkles, persistent red complexion, sunspots, acne scars, large pores and other blemishes.At Woolfson Cosmetic, Dr. Lewen uses the Lumenis® One IPL platform, which is the most advanced technology and the only 4th generation IPL machine on the market. With this technology, Dr. Lewen is able to ensure your treatments are most appropriate for your individual needs, offer substantial, yet gradual results with minimal downtime, and have a relatively low risk of side effects. IPL produces a broad spectrum of light which is transmitted through a small, smooth, transparent hand piece, and gently placed over the skin. Cut-off filters in the hand piece change the wavelength range allowing it to be optimized for different applications and skin types. Specific treatments are customized by Dr. Lewen to ensure your individual aesthetic goals are addressed. The Lumenis® One is ideal for treating the following: Erythema

Erythema is redness of the skin, caused by hypersensivity of the capillaries in the lower layers of the skin. It occurs with any skin injury, infection, or inflammatory condition..| Pigment spots are brown or dark brown flat or raised spots on your skin. They are often a sign of past excessive and repetitive sun exposure. People with darker skin tones and pregnant women with increased hormonal production are especially prone to pigment spots. Other major causes are unprotected and repetitive exposure to sunlight and skin injury (e.g. cut, burn or an infection). |
Spider Veins
| Varicose veins are enlarged veins that can be flesh colored, dark purple, or blue. They often look like cords and appear twisted and bulging. Usually, they are swollen and raised above the surface of the skin. Spider Veins are those small clusters of red, blue, or purple veins that appear on the thighs, calves, and ankles. They are very similar to varicose veins, but smaller and closer to the surface of the skin. Spider veins can look like tree branches or spider webs with their short jagged lines. They are usually found on the legs and face, but can cover a variety of skin areas. A number of factors may contribute to the development of spider veins in the legs, including:

Laser Hair Removal is the most commonly performed laser procedure in this country for good reason. It is fast, easy, and more comfortable than other methods like waxing or electrolysis. This perfect lunchtime procedure can be done in as little as 10 minutes, depending on the specific area treated.
The best part of laser hair removal is that you do not need to grow out the hair for effective treatment, although, you must abstain from waxing and/or plucking hairs for at least 1 month prior to treatment. This has always been a negative with other methods, but not with Woolfson Cosmetic’s Laser Hair Removal!
Although your complete treatment will require multiple visits, generally, after the very first treatment you will notice a significant reduction in your hair.
Worried because you have darker skin? We are committed to customizing your treatment to ensure that your particular skin type will tolerate the procedure appropriately and give you optimal success.

"Have you ever felt that you've been given a new lease on life? That's exactly how I feel since I've had LASIK. Instead of green fuzz around a tree trunk, I can now actually see the outline of the leaves. I have the chance again to enjoy so many of the little things in our everyday life that we take so much for granted. Thank you so much, Dr. Woolfson, for renewing my eyesight and giving me the chance to see clearly again."
