DermaCure utilizes the latest version of the Fraxel re:store laser.  This is the same revolutionary laser featured on the Today Show, Dr. Phil and in many national beauty magazines.  It corrects age and sun damaged skin without the down time or adverse reactions associated with other resurfacing procedures.  Fraxel is the accepted gold standard treatment and is FDA approved for these conditions:

Along with resurfacing, Fraxel stimulates collagen formation in the skin resulting in a slowing of the aging process.

Discomfort is minimal and down time amounts to a few days of a pink skin tone, similar to a mild sunburn.  There is no crusting, oozing or peeling.  Most patients can return to work the next day.  Fraxel is safe to use on all skin types.

Ultherapy is the only non-invasive treatment approved by the FDA for lifting the skin on the neck, chin, and brow. Ultherapy uses focused ultrasound to lift and tighten loose skin over time, without any downtime

Many Santa Claritans eat healthy and work out religiously and yet they cannot rid themselves of "love handles" , "muffin tops", "saddle bags" and other fatty bulges. The only answer till now has been various forms of liposuction, which may or may not involve general anesthesia. Liposuction carries with it the risks of bleeding, infection scarring, lumpiness and prolonged pain. The recover often means compression bandages and restriction of physical activities including most sporets.

However, now for the first time there is an instrument that is FDA approved to permanently destroy fat cells without invading the body, thus avoiding the pitfalls of liposuction. This is the miracle of LIPOSONIX.

Liposonix was developed by the company that brought us Fraxel and Thermage. It uses a technology called HIFU. High intensity focused ultrasound engery is directed ½ inch deep into our fatty tissue where it raises the temperature to 138 degrees F. This undeniably destroys the fat cells forever. This results in a one to two inch reduction in waist size. The loss of fat is permanent.

This technology can be used anywhere that 1 inch of fat can be pinched. Patients are initially evaluated by the doctor. They are weighed, measured and medically photographed so that results are easily documented. But the effects will be apparent in each patient's reduced clothing size in just one treatment session.

Since Liposonix treatments are non- surgical and non-invasive, there is little to no downtime. Most patients resume normal activities the next day. You can go back to work or the tennis court within 24 hours. During treatment you may experience some discomfort such as prickling, tingling, or warmth. After treatment there may be temporary bruising and swelling, but no special post-care is required.

The fat that is destroyed is removed during the next eight to twelve weeks by the body's own natural mechanism. The treatment last approximately one hour. Backed by over ten years of scientific research and testing, Liposonix is extremely safe. It has been employed in Canada and Europe for years with excellent results.

Come see why we say "1 treatment, 1 hour, 1 size smaller".

Using our 1064 laser we are able to painlessly treat and improve fine lines, wrinkles, large pores, uneven skin texture, diffuse redness and scars.  Treatments can be performed in a relaxed, comfortable manner without the use of topical anesthetics.

Patients often describe the treatment as relaxing and therapeutic.  You will experience a gently warming of your skin’s surface during the procedure as the laser hand piece is moved back and forth about 1/2 inch above your skin. You can immediately return to normal activities.

By gently heating the upper dermis well below your skin’s surface, Laser Genesis stimulates collagen re-growth.  Additional heat is generated in dilated capillaries to reduce redness.

Fotofacial treatments have been around for about 10 years and have been an excellent way of treating skin redness, tiny facial veins, brown spots and sun damage.  By introducing a programmable device, Limelight allows us to customize your Fotofacial depending on skin type and which condition is concerning you the most.

There are 3 separate programs that make this the ideal Fotofacial treatment. 

Program A addresses diffuse redness and small capillaries (tine veins) which are often associated with Rosacea, but can occur by themselves.

Program C addresses brown spots which were previously difficult to resolve.  Even very light freckles respond nicely to this mode of treatment.

Program B is a combination that treats both redness and pigmentation.  All 3 modes can be used on the face, neck, chest and hands in the majority of skin types.  Skin texture and tone improve in all 3 modes.

The remarkable Titan™ procedure uses light energy to heat the dermis deep beneath your skin surface.  This stimulates new collagen formation which at this level causes the skin to tighten.

Used on the face, Titan can eliminate jowls, turkey neck and even reduce the nasal labial folds.  In the forehead region it is capable of producing a brow lift.  The skin is protected by the cooling surface of the hand piece and can be used on any skin type.  It can also be used on arms, abdomen and neck.

The temporary redness following the procedure is usually gone by the time the patient returns home.  There is no down time.  No numbing time or anesthesia is required and no medications are necessary.

Titan™ has a better success rate and does not cause the discomfort associated with other skin tightening procedures that use radiofrequency.

Dermacure of Valencia has recently purchased a new laser to apply Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT). In February 2007, the FDA found that the technology in low level laser therapy (LLLT) was not only safe but was able to effectively re-grow hair in 94% of the people involved in the study. In a study with Propecia (also FDA approved to re-grow hair) and LLLT, the Propecia grew 54 new hairs per square inch and the LLLT grew 135 new hairs per square inch.

Laser treatments are beneficial for all hair types by increasing the blood flow by 54%. It works in varying degrees on everyone, from slowing, arresting or reversing hair loss to increasing the shine, body and elasticity of hair. LLLT works on all areas of the scalp: front, top, back, and sides. LLLT is recommended for both men and women who are in the early stages of hair loss or who demonstrate sufficient hair follicles capable of being rehabilitated by the laser hair therapy program. Usually noticeable improvement is achieved in 3 to 6 months. However, if you have heavy hair fall-out, you may notice a reduced rate of fall-out after only a few treatments. Results vary per individual, and compliance is necessary to achieve the best results. To maintain a healthy head of hair, especially if there is a history of baldness in your family, the sooner you start the better.

What is (LLLT) Low Level Laser Therapy?

LLLT is a non-surgical, scientific approach to aiding in the treatment of hair loss, thinning hair, and scalp problems.
