Photofacials safely & comfortably fade the appearance of rosacea, spider veins, skin imperfections caused by sun damage, age spots & uneven skin tones.
Genetics & Lifestyle
As technology continues to improve at the speed of light, it becomes crystal clear that lasers are here to stay…and are becoming the treatment of choice for many of today’s cosmetic and clinical treatments. Our genes define who we are, how we will age and at what pace visible signs of aging will appear. Often, we look into the mirror and see those parental resemblances, especially as we move through life into the senior years. Lifestyle, how we’ve chosen to eat, exercise or not, the amount of sun exposure we’ve had, unexpected trauma and disease, pregnancy and childbirth, hormonal changes and more, all factor into how we age. Many people look into the mirror one day and decide it’s time for change…they know age defying procedures are out there and they want them. Dr. Rudderman offers only the safest, most reliable options available today.

IPL Photofacial Procedure
The elos™ hand held wand is passed over the treatment area allowing the focused light and bi polar frequency to restore your skin to a healthier, more youthful state. Most patients feel a hot pinch sensation that lasts only a fraction of a second, along with a warm tingling sensation. Most patients tolerate the treatment without anesthetic, but a topical anesthetic can be used for those with more sensitive skin.
