How can I rejuvenate my skin?

The team at North Scottsdale Women’s Health team offer a wide range of treatments to rejuvenate your skin, including:

Facials

This refreshing treatment is an ideal way to maintain vibrant, healthy skin. And a facial does more than just give you bright, smooth skin: It leaves you feeling relaxed and re-energized.

You can customize facials to clear your pores, treat acne, reduce the appearance of sun damage, or prevent signs of aging.

Chemical peels

A chemical peel involves applying a special formula to help gently peel away the top layer of your skin, reducing the appearance of sun damage, uneven tone and texture, age spots, wrinkles, and other flaws.

A chemical peel’s depth of action depends on a variety of factors, including its ingredients, how it’s applied, and how long it remains on your skin.  

Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion uses a slender handheld device to sand your thick outer layer of skin away gently. This popular clinical treatment both exfoliates your skin and stimulates collagen growth for a smoother, younger-looking complexion.

Dermaplaning

This treatment uses a 10-gauge scalpel to gently scrape away the top layer of dead skin cells to uncover a glowing complexion. Because it removes the natural peach fuzz along the sides of your face, the treatment leaves the surface of your skin extra-smooth.

Microneedling

Also known as collagen induction therapy, this treatment uses a special device to create controlled micro-injuries across the surface of your skin. The healing process promotes collagen and elastin renewal and reduces the appearance of fine lines, acne scars, and stretch marks.   

Because microneedling creates superficial micro-channels in your skin, it provides an ideal way to deliver skin care serums directly to the deepest layers for optimal effect.  

Light therapy

This gentle process starts with a cleanse to prepare your skin for therapeutic light energy. Afterward, you finish with a customized mask.

Light therapy can increase collagen production by up to 400%, tighten the elastin layer, reduce pore size, diminish scars and blemishes, and help correct sun spots and acne.   

What is platelet-rich plasma?

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a highly-concentrated serum derived from your blood. It’s obtained by taking a small blood sample and spinning it in a closed, sterile centrifuge machine to separate the PRP from other components of your blood.

PRP contains up to five times as many platelets as normal, circulating blood. It also contains many other bioactive substances that promote healing and rapid regeneration.

PRP can stimulate hair follicles and facilitate hair restoration; it can also renew vaginal and urinary tissues to improve urinary incontinence and relieve vaginal dryness. When combined with microneedling, PRP also promotes maximum skin rejuvenation.
