Laser Treatments

What are my laser treatment options?

Laser treatments use specific light wavelengths to stimulate your skin using energy and heat. The goals these treatments can accomplish depend on the type you get. Core Primary Care offers:

Laser hair removal

Laser hair removal can permanently reduce the growth of body hair in areas you decide to target. This eliminates or reduces the need to shave or wax and minimizes common issues like ingrown hairs. 

Laser tattoo removal

PicoSure® lasers can break down the ink in unwanted or unappreciated tattoos. Your lymphatic system then gets rid of the tiny ink particles as waste. You can get laser tattoo removal to get rid of a tattoo entirely or to lighten it so you can cover it. PicoSure also gets rid of pigmented spots and blemishes. 

Skin revitalization

Many laser procedures strengthen your skin by stimulating collagen to make it stronger, firmer, and more youthful. 

What are the benefits of laser treatments?

While laser treatments have many differences, they have a lot in common too. This includes their many advantages over alternative treatments and services. Lasers use light and energy, so these procedures are fully noninvasive. 

Other benefits of laser treatments include:

• Little or no healing time
• Quick treatment times
• No downtime
• Minimal or no discomfort
• Reliable results

The Core Primary Care team can answer your questions and make sure you’re a good candidate for the laser treatment you want. 

What should I expect from laser treatments?

When you visit Core Primary Care for a laser treatment, the team gives you a pair of protective goggles to shield your eyes since the light can damage them. The provider performing your treatment wears some, too. 

The team may offer you topical or local anesthesia ahead of a laser treatment. It numbs your skin during the treatment and for some time afterward, so you don’t feel any pain, pinching, or heat. 

Most laser treatments require multiple sessions to produce the best possible results. The team tells you how many treatments you can anticipate during your initial consultation and exam.
