NoCO Aesthetics Studio utilizes several forms of Skin Rejuvenation treatments.
Intense Pulse Light Photo Rejuvenation (IPL), AdvaTX Yellow Laser and Microneedling with serums or PRP/PRF
Skin Rejuvenation treatments do not burn away skin tissue but use laser energy to stimulate collagen growth and tighten underlying skin. Skin Rejuvenation is gentler than ablative and requires less downtime but may necessitate more treatment sessions and may yield less dramatic results.
In general, non-ablative laser treatments are used when the repair needed is less extensive. Also, non-ablative treatments are recommended for people of color for whom ablative resurfacing may be more likely to cause unsightly changes in pigmentation.
IPL Photo Rejuvenation
IPL Photo-rejuvenation (IPL) targets skin cells by coagulation and necrosis of dermal and epidermal layers. The body naturally responds to this by creating new cells causing an overall skin renewal to the treatment area.
If you have sun-damaged skin, enlarged, visible facial blood vessels, rosacea, hyperpigmentation, or other facial imperfections, IPL treatments may be the perfect treatment. Our IPL procedure is fast, minimally invasive, and requires no recovery time.
The Viora IPL emits a range of light waves proven to be effective in treating various conditions and can be adjusted to target melanin pigment cells in freckles and age spots and visible blood vessels. Each treatment will lead to immediate, visible changes that continue to improve in the months ahead.
Skin Rejuvenation brings new life to your dull and aging skin.
- Hyperpigmentation
- Evens out skin tone
- Vascular lesions
- Rosacea and redness
- Acne Clearance
One of the best features of IPL is the in the treatment of Rosacea. If you are living with rosacea, it can be embarrassing and difficult to hide, even with the best cosmetics. The opportunity to completely resolve the appearance of rosacea brings new hope to those who suffer the condition. However, it is exceptionally important that your treatment is applied by a highly skilled professional. The treatment area must be carefully mapped out, with a slight overlap so that the results are clear and uniform.
How to Prepare for IPL
Because the IPL Photo-rejuvenation involves the application of intense light waves, you will be asked to make certain preparations prior to treatment. The goal is to ensure that your Los Angeles IPL treatment is as productive and effective as possible. To prepare, you will be required to avoid self-tanners or excessive sun exposure for two to four weeks. “Excessive sun” includes beach and pool time, laying out in the sun, or being exposed to strong rays in activities such as boating, sports, running, or other outdoor activity.
There are several medications you will likely have to discontinue a few days before each treatment: minocycline, tetracycline, doxycycline or Retin-A, to name a few of the most common. Medication changes may need to be coordinated with your doctor. To prevent bruising, you may be asked to avoid aspirin or ibuprofen for a week prior to your appointment. Note that laser treatments should not be performed during pregnancy. No safety studies have been performed, and changes in your skin color during pregnancy may work against the results that can be achieved.

When the ADVATx laser is used on brown spots, the laser is absorbed by the melanin or pigment in the skin and the deeper blood vessels. This absorbed energy begins to break down the melanin as well as inhibiting the blood flow sustaining pigment-producing cells. Once the pigment breaks down, the reduced blood flow makes it difficult for the cells to again produce the excess pigment.
Using the ADVATx laser you can expect longer-lasting results due to the impeded production of pigment. The ADVATx low laser uses the same wavelength for a variety of different pigmentation and complexion issues as it targets the blood vessels, sebum-producing glands, and underlying structure of the facial tissue for superior results.
The ADVATx laser achieves beautiful improvements in vascular conditions immediately, with some of the best facial blood vessel removal. Within 5-10 days you will notice that your pigmented lesions have also nicely faded.
