If
you live with sun damage and visible veins in your face, chest, arms
and other areas, there is new hope for a rejuvenated appearance through
light-based treatments. The Palomar RejuveLux Process employs pulsed
light to perform the most effective photofacials available.
Now
available at Central Kentucky Women's Healthcare, the RejuveLux Process
is remarkable because it has the versatility to treat both pigmented
lesions and vessels safely and effectively, while improving skin tone
and texture.
The RejuveLux Process is accomplished with a
Palomar Pulsed Light System. Pulsed light is similar to a laser in that
it uses an intense beam of light, but the pulsed light can cover a
larger body area with each pulse than a laser can, and it is gentler on
the skin.
During RejuveLux treatments, pulses of light are
directed onto the skin and absorbed by the melanin in pigmented lesions
and the blood in visible vessels. The light heats the pigment and
disables the cells that produce it. These dead cells are naturally shed
by the body after about two weeks, leaving behind fresh, unblemished
skin. In the case of vessels, the light is absorbed by the hemoglobin
within the veins, causing them to shrink and fade from view.
Palomar
RejuveLux treatments are safe and effective. Most patients describe the
light pulses as a 'snapping' sensation, which causes mild discomfort at
most.

Permanent Hair Reduction
If
you live with unwanted hair on your back, legs, upper lip or other
areas, you may be surprised to find that you can find permanent relief
to your problem through pulsed light hair removal.
Pulsed light
treatments are remarkable because they provide permanent hair reduction
on large body areas with a minimum of discomfort. Using the Palomar
Pulsed Light System, you can experience superior results after only a
few treatments.
Pulsed light is similar to a laser in that it
uses an intense beam of light. Palomar has employed a new technology
that can remove hair up to ten times faster than most lasers.
Palomar
Pulsed Light Systems have the flexibility to provide varied hair
removal treatments on different types of skin and hair. The system
removes unwanted hair by delivering a pulse of intense light directly
into the hair follicles. The light is absorbed by the pigment in the
follicles and converted to heat. The heat then loosens the hair and
disables the cells responsible for growing new hair.
Pulsed
light treatments are much more effective than such temporary solutions
as shaving and waxing. Even electrolysis can't compare, because it's
very impractical for large body areas. Most patients describe the
pulses as a 'snapping' sensation, which causes mild discomfort at most.
The StarLux cools the skin as it treats, allowing for safe and
effective treatments. After the treatment, there may be some redness
for a few days, but that quickly fades and the patient can enjoy the
effects of smooth skin.

Acne Treatment
Are
you one of over three-quarters of all teenagers and young adults that
are affected by pimples, blackheads, whiteheads and clogged pores. Now,
new Intense Pulsed Light treatments can provide you with help and most
often a cure.
Acne is associated with an increase in sebaceous
gland activity, insufficient shedding of cellular debris plugging the
gland's duct and follicle, and proliferation in this oil-rich medium of
the bacterium Propionibacterium acnes (P. Acnes). A variety of drugs
are used in the treatment of acne and they target the various factors
involved in its cause. However, each of these have potential side
effects and don't always work well.
It is a well known fact
that sun exposure has a beneficial effect on patients with acne. Using
this knowledge and the Palomar StarLux, acne treatment can be conducted
quickly, safely and easily. This RejuveLux process uses concentrated
pulses of light to attack on two fronts: it kills the bacteria that can
cause acne, and it also damages the overactive glands that trap
bacteria and lead to more acne.
The StarLux cools the skin as
it treats, allowing for safe and effective treatments. Most patient
describe the light pulses as a "snapping" sensation, which causes mild
discomfort at most. After the treatment, there may be some redness for
a few days, but that quickly fades and the patient can enjoy the
effects of smoother, clearer skin, with oftent times improved tone and
texture.
