Lumecca by InMode is an Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) device with the highest peak power output of any IPL platform available, targeting pigmentation, vascular redness (rosacea, broken capillaries), sun damage, freckles, and skin texture in fewer sessions than standard IPL. Sessions run approximately 20–30 minutes for a full face. Mild redness and temporary darkening of pigmented lesions are the expected post-treatment findings.

Fractional CO2 laser skin resurfacing using the Lutronic eCO2 Plus system to treat acne scars, wrinkles, textural irregularities, and pigmentation concerns. The eCO2 Plus delivers precisely controlled ablative and coagulative energy in a fractional pattern, leaving surrounding tissue intact to accelerate healing. A single session can produce significant improvement in skin texture and clarity with a typical recovery window of five to ten days. Multiple sessions may be recommended for deeper scarring.

miraDry is an FDA-approved non-invasive treatment using microwave energy to permanently eliminate underarm sweat glands, odor glands, and hair in a single session. Sweat and odor glands do not regenerate after treatment, making miraDry a long-term solution for hyperhidrosis and underarm sweating. Local anaesthesia is administered before the procedure. Mild swelling and soreness resolve within one to two weeks.

Minimally invasive radiofrequency ablation to permanently close diseased great saphenous or small saphenous veins causing varicose veins and chronic venous insufficiency. Performed in-office under local anesthesia by Dr. David D. Shin, a board-certified vascular surgeon with over 10,000 saphenous ablations. A thin catheter is inserted under ultrasound guidance and delivers controlled thermal energy along the vein wall, sealing it shut so blood reroutes through healthy veins. No general anesthesia, no hospital stay, and most patients walk out and return to normal activity the same day.

Sciton BBL (BroadBand Light) therapy at Elysium Aesthetics + Longevity in Chicago to address sun damage, pigmentation, rosacea, acne, fine lines, and vascular redness.

Sciton Halo is the world's first hybrid fractional laser, simultaneously delivering 1470 nm non-ablative and 2940 nm ablative wavelengths to the same treatment zone. At Lemmon Avenue Plastic Surgery, Halo addresses sun damage, pigmentation, fine lines, pores, skin texture, and early signs of photoaging in a single session. Downtime is four to five days of bronzing and peeling. Results are associated with lasting one to three years with an annual maintenance session.
