Seeing sun spots? Well, you can happily bid farewell to fine lines, thanks to a savvy, new treatment fit for 20-somethings.
It's a universal dreaded fear: looking in the mirror and spotting that first fine line--only the start to a series of wrinkles. And many of us Scottsdale sun goddesses are seeing those newfound flaws sooner than welcome...in our 20s and 30s.Well, there's good news--turns out even youngens can get those sun spots and wrinkles zapped, thanks to a brand new FDA-approved laser called Clear & Brilliant.
"We get people in here all the time in their 20s freaking out because they're starting to see lines; now we have this whole family of opportunities to take care of different ages and different degrees of sun damage," said Dr. Susan Van Dyke, our Scottsdale savior.
Yes, the Valley cosmetic doctor is coming to our rescue, being one of the 12 nationwide doctors to first receive the revolutionary laser treatment. It's designed for "younger" guys and gals looking to get a head start repairing their sun-kissed skin.
"It improves your tone and texture, eliminating wrinkles, fine lines, and sun damage," said Dr. Van Dyke.
Clear & Brilliant is made by the reputable brand Fraxel, providing an effective treatment based on fractional laser technology. Dr. Van Dyke says the series of 6 non-invasive treatments are fairly simple--you can even get them on your lunch hour! After an application of numbing jelly, you'll feel a bunch of hot pin pricks, as the laser rolls across your skin. You'll feel a slight burning sensation before and after each treatment.
"It's really not very painful; probably a 3 between 1-10."
Your 6-part series is spaced a little over a week apart, and will run you $300 each, but the outcome is well worth it.
"It's ideal for young patients."
Dr. Van Dyke is launching the must-have summertime product June 15th; call now to book a consultation: 480-948-5045 or visit www.vandykelaser.com.
