TATTOO REMOVAL WITH LASER SYSTEM
Decorative tattoos have a history dating back at least 5000 years. The desire to remove them has probably existed just as long. Early attempts to remove tattoos have had less than desirable results. The use of dermabrasion, salabrasion, and CO2 lasers have left behind scars in place of the tattoo. The advent of the Q-SWITCH LASERS has permitted the removal of most tattoo inks with very low risk of scarring.

THE Q-SWITCH LASER IS THE NEWEST SYSTEM IN THIS CLASS OF LASERS. This laser can significantly lighten or remove many tattoo inks, and is particularly advanced in the removal of blue, black, and red inks. Tattoo ink is removed by using a specific wavelength which passes through the skin but is absorbed by the ink. The rapid absorption of light energy causes the tattoo ink to destruct, where it is then removed by the body's own natural filtering system. The use of this specific combination of wavelength and rapidly pulsed light results in minimal damage to the skin while providing maximum tattoo ink removal.

Is plastic surgery expensive?

Price will vary from procedure to procedure. However, more and more people are seeing plastic surgeons every year. With available financing, surgery can be very affordable; even for those on a fixed budget.

 

 

Q.
I have heard that there are dangers involved in using silicone breast implants. Is this true?

In 1992, the FDA banned the use of silicone implants. They have been replaced with saline implants. Saline implants are filled with a natural salt-water solution.

 

 
 

Q.
Will liposuction reduce cellulite?

A.
No. Cellulite is a natural occurrence caused by skin connecting to underlying tissue.

A.
A tummy tuck removes excess skin and fat. The procedure can significantly reduce the size of a protruding abdomen.

A.
No. Your weight should be stable over a period of time; long enough to insure you won't immediately regain the weight.

 

 
 

Q.
Will breast augmentation leave a scar?

A.
Breast implants can usually be inserted using only a small incision. Every effort will be made to make the scar less visible.

 

 
 

Q.
How long do the results of a breast lift last?

A.
Although your breasts will appear more youthful than without surgery, the effects of pregnancy, weight change, and gravity will continue to affect your breasts.

 

 
 

Q.
How many treatments will it take to make my spider veins less visible?

A.
After every treatment, spider veins will appear lighter. However, two or more sessions are usually required to obtain the maximum results.
