If you are looking for an effective way to reduce unwanted hair on areas like the legs, armpits, upper lip, chin, and bikini line, or remove or diminish the look of unsightly or unwanted veins, laser services might be for you! Elanté Rejuvenation is pleased to offer a variety of laser services to meet all your skin rejuvenation needs.
When it comes to laser hair removal or laser vein removal, the technology is the same. Laser treatment uses concentrated beams of light (lasers) to achieve the desired result. In the case of unwanted hair, a concentrated light is absorbed by the pigment (melanin) in the hair, and the light energy is converted to heat, which damages the hair follicles that produce the hair. This damage inhibits or delays future hair growth. With vein removal, the laser closes or shrinks the vein and causes scar tissue within the vessel. This seals off the vein and blood then flows through other nearby veins instead.

The total number of treatments varies based on the fineness, coarseness and the thickness of the hair shaft and treatment area. Typically, anywhere from 8-12 treatments are recommended.
Laser hair removal requires multiple treatments because hair grows in different phases. It’s necessary to repeat the treatments at the intervals recommended by your provider to achieve the best results. Missing a treatment could mean missing the optimal stage of hair growth for removal, thereby increasing the number of treatments required.
Due to superior technology and treatment safety, results are achievable on all skin and hair types—dark or light, fine or coarse. Commonly treated areas include underarms, arms, legs, bikini area, and men’s chest and back. It can also be used to remove unwanted hair on the face for men and women both.
Most patients report that laser hair removal feels like a rubber band lightly snapping the skin. To increase patient comfort and safety, laser offers continuous cooling before, during and after each pulse. In a comparative study, 100% of patients found this laser to be more comfortable than a competitors’ laser hair removal procedure.
Following your laser treatments, you should apply sunscreen to the treated area and refrain from excessive sun exposure. Your provider will discuss additional post-interment care during your consultation.
Achieve clearly beautiful, spot-less skin. For benign vascular lesion treatments, laser light is absorbed by hemoglobin in the veins, and the heat produced causes photocoagulation. Heat is transferred to the vessel wall, which ultimately destroys the vessels and prevents recanalization. The laser treats individual veins, but new veins may appear due to an underlying disorder. Laser eliminates unwanted veins on the face and body safely and effectively. Series of 4-6 treatments may be required with combination of other treatments for the best results.
Treat skin imperfections that steal your confidence. Pigmented lesions can safely be treated if diagnosed as safe to be treated with light and laser. Some are benign epidermal growth that presents as hyperpigmented or skin-coloured papules that develop on the face and neck. They can be solar lentigines, dyschromia, sun damage, poikiloderma of civatte and DPNs (dermatosis papulose nigra). Some conditions can appear as mottled, reddish-brown patches usually on the sides of your neck, upper chest, and cheeks. These conditions are mainly cosmetic and not a health concern. It doesn’t cause symptoms. Long-term sun damage is the primary contributing factor.
Laser light is absorbed by superficial melanin in the lesion. Pigmented cells are denatured, darken, rise to the surface, and flakes off over a couple of weeks. Pigmented lesions are often slow to react. Patients may have crusty, dark appearance of the spots typically 24-48 hours post-treatment.
Excel V+ is fast and easy way to treat visible veins, discoloration, stubborn spots. It is the most advanced aesthetic laser technology, combining two powerfully precise lasers to target and eliminate unwanted reds, browns, purples and blues on the face and body.
Excel V+ treats more than twenty unique aesthetic and dermatologic skin concerns. The most common treatments include sunspots, age/brown spots, dyschromia, poikiloderma of civatte and DPNs (dermatosis papulose nigra).
A treatment provider will select one of Excel V+’s two lasers and customize the treatment settings to target the colour and depth of your skin concern. Most treatments are finished in just a few minutes, and results are typically seen after a series of 1-3 treatment sessions.
The laser delivers clinically proven results on a wide range of skin concerns. The treatments are comfortable and fast, with most treatments performed in under 60 minutes. Depending on the area(s) and concerns being treated, some procedures may take up to 60 minutes.
With most skin concerns require only 2-4 treatment sessions to achieve best results. However, the number of treatments will vary based on your condition. Your provider will discuss a customized treatment plan during your consultation.
The treatments can feel similar to a quick rubber band snapping against the skin. Depending on the procedure,
the cooling tip will be in contact with the skin to protect and provide additional comfort to the area during the treatments. A topical anesthetic may be available from your provider to improve your treatment experience.
Typically, you can wear make-up and return to normal activities immediately. Redness and/or swelling can be expected following treatment. For full face treatments, swelling will peak 24 to 48 hours post treatment and usually resolves within a few days Your provider may recommend a topical steroid to reduce swelling as needed. Treated brown spots will darken following the treatment and slough off within 3 to 5 days.
The purpose of the treatment is to selectively treat the target of hemoglobin (chromophore) without causing thermal damage to the surrounding tissue.
Laser light is absorbed by hemoglobin in the veins and the heat produced causes photocoagulation.
This heat is transferred to the vessel wall which affects the collagen and ultimately helps to destroy the vessel and prevent recanalization. It can improve:
Warts (or verruca) can be treated with vascular lasers – typically at higher energy settings and shorter pulse durations than veins. Warts may need to be debrided (pared down) prior to treatment. Warts can be successfully treated with the lasers. Multiple treatments may be required.
The results to treat warts with laser treatments were achieved in 85.5% of the laser treated cases.
It depends on the type of laser and wavelength used to remove warts. The light heats up the blood in the tiny vessels inside the wart and destroys the vessels. Without blood, the wart dies and falls off. The laser’s heat may also attack the virus that causes the wart.
There are several reasons that warts may grow back. First, the wart may not have been entirely removed with the original wart treatment option, and it may continue growing. Second, if an incision was made to remove the wart, the incision may become re-infected with HPV, thus causing the growth of a new wart.
The most common side effects include dark crusty appearance, redness and swelling. Occasionally a blister may occur. These side effects typically are mild and resolve in 7-14 days.
After the treatment you may experience a tingling sensation where the laser was used, but most do not feel anything. The wart will usually turn a dusky colour that progresses to a dark colour. Over the next 2-3 weeks the wart will fall off. You will be completely healed within 2-4 weeks.
