At our Ethos MedSpa locations in Chesterfield, MO, we offer an advanced skincare treatment called LaseMD. This treatment combines laser and nanotechnology to treat the most common skin concerns without downtime. The four-step treatment can brighten the skin, repair damaged skin cells, and deliver anti-aging and rejuvenating serums below the skin’s surface to promote younger-looking skin.
What Is LaseMD?
LaseMD is a treatment that uses laser technology and our proprietary serums to first create microchannels in the skin to initiate a healing response from the body that will result in increased collagen and elastin production and then uses customized serums to take advantage of the skin’s increased absorption abilities. The treatment is completely customizable, and we can choose the right serums to use during treatment to address each patient’s skin concerns or conditions.
The Treatment Benefits
LaseMD is a customizable treatment that can help patients with different skin concerns achieve healthier, younger-looking skin. The proprietary treatments that we offer allow us to take the treatment’s customizability to the next level, as we can deliver a treatment specifically designed for certain skin types and tones. Other treatment benefits include:
- There’s no downtime
- The four-step treatment can perfect the skin in as little as 30 minutes
- The treatment is pain-free
- There are no chemicals, preservatives, fragrances, or colors in the serums used during the treatment
- It’s a customizable treatment safe for all skin types
How It Works
This treatment includes a four-step process. First, a dual-function laser will create tiny microchannels on the skin’s surface. These microscopic channels will accelerate the growth of new skin cells while also creating space for the nanoserum delivery system to deposit nutrient-rich serums into the skin. These nanoserums contain tiny particles that enter into the microchannels and create changes in the skin.
Then, we will apply a specialized cream to the skin to strengthen the skin’s protective barrier and promote deep hydration. The final step includes a double-action mask that seals the skin and adds an extra layer of moisture and protection.
The Ultra Glow Signature Treatment
Our Ultra Glow Signature Treatment is a 30-minute treatment that is safe and effective for all Fitzpatrick skin types, I through VI. Patients looking for a maintenance treatment to refresh and revitalize their skin make good candidates for this treatment, as it delivers results without requiring significant downtime. During this treatment, your skin will receive ten joules or less and four passes with the device. Then we will apply the appropriate serums based on the needs of your skin.
The Ultra Glow Platinum Treatment
Our Ultra Glow Platinum Treatment is a 60-minute treatment that requires a pre-treatment numbing cream since it delivers a deeper, more advanced treatment. It’s an effective treatment option for patients with Fitzpatrick skin types I through III. During this treatment, your skin will receive over ten joules and at least four passes with the device, possibly more as needed.
Customizing Your Treatment With Our Add-On Serums
We offer different ampules to enhance your treatment and customize it to the needs of your skin.
These include the VC, a vitamin C serum that can brighten the skin and create a more uniform skin tone by lightening dark spots. VA is a vitamin A serum that delivers anti-aging benefits to the skin to promote a youthful glow. RS, which stands for Resveratrol, is a serum that can reduce skin redness and inflammation to balance the skin. TA is tranexamic acid and can treat melasma and skin discoloration, including hyperpigmentation.
Our Proprietary Combination Treatments
Not only do we offer LaseMD as an effective way for patients to improve their skin and reach different goals, but we also offer proprietary treatments that combine the benefits of this unique skin rejuvenating treatment with other forms of skin-perfecting technology.
Patients with specific concerns or those who want to enhance their treatment results make good candidates for our proprietary treatments. Whether you choose the Ethos Skin Renewal Treatment or the Light & Bright, you’ll experience the benefits of two treatments during a single appointment.
The Ethos Skin Renewal
The Ethos Skin Renewal combines the power of Virtue RF by Cartessa™ and LaseMD to augment and enhance the treatment results. This treatment is a good option for patients who qualify as FitzPatrick skin types I through IV. Virtue RF by Cartessa™ is a radiofrequency microneedling device that uses radiofrequency energy and microneedles to stimulate the body’s natural healing abilities and increase collagen and elastin production.
The Ethos Skin Renewal treatment can double the treatment benefits by adding microneedling and radiofrequency energy to an already effective treatment. This treatment is a good option for those who suffer from aging skin, skin laxity, and acne scars. If you want to combine Virtue RF by Cartessa™ with LaseMD, we can schedule an initial consultation to evaluate your skin, learn more about your treatment goals, and confirm that this option is right for you.
The Light & Bright
The Light & Bright is another combination treatment that uses photofacial in combination with the LaseMD treatment. Like the Ethos Skin Renewal treatment, the Light & Bright treatment can enhance and augment the treatment results and help you target multiple concerns in one session. photofacial is a skin rejuvenating and skin resurfacing treatment that can address several different skin concerns, including aging, sun damage, hyperpigmentation, and more.
