GoodLifeCentreforWomen

The Good Life Centre for Women uses the most advanced FDA cleared laser technology for permanent hair reduction, safely and effectively treating all ethnic origins and skin types including tanned skin. Dr. Caputo performs and/or supervises all laser hair reduction treatments.

Laser energy is absorbed by the pigment in the hair follicle while your hair in its anagen, or active phase of growth: The laser light is converted into heat, causing thermal damage to the follicle without harming the surrounding tissue. Hair re-growth is impeded in the damaged follicle.

Only 30% or less of your hair may be in the active phase at any one time depending on the body area. Thus, a series of treatments will be required to achieve the long-term improvement you desire. These treatments are spaced approximately 4-12 weeks apart, based on hair growth cycles. Our extensive experience tells us that you can expect to need from 3-8 treatments (4-6 is average) to each treatment area for long lasting optimal results.

Sessions for an upper lip or small bikini area can take as little as 15 minutes, while larger areas on back and legs may require up to 60 minutes or more.

The average patient in clinical studies sees a 48% reduction in hair growth after three treatments and up to an 80% lasting reduction after six to eight treatments (results vary). After you have completed a series of four to six treatments, any remaining hair will usually be finer and lighter in color. Most patients require one or two touch-up treatments per year. Blond, platinum, most red, gray and vellus hair will not respond to this treatment.

At the Good Life Centre for Women, our experience tells us that package pricing is the best way to offer laser hair reduction. It enables the patient to receive the best value as well as know the exact cost for the full treatment. A full treatment consists of up to six sessions. Intervals vary among treated region and treatment number. Touch up treatments are priced individually when requested.

We’re pleased to offer a revolutionary new laser treatment that can quickly and safely eliminate unsightly leg veins, spider veins and broken capillaries up to 4mm in diameter.

Our advanced technology Laser minimizes the redness and bruising normally associated with traditional treatments. Best of all, this technology allows us to treat people of any ethnic origin and skin type including tanned skin.

The laser energy is absorbed by the pigment in your blood and collapses the unwanted vein.

The laser energy is delivered through a hand-held device with a cooling tip that protects your skin.

The appearance of leg veins will either dramatically fade or completely disappear during the treatment. Some vessels may show temporary swelling that will subside after a few hours to a few days. The redness of the treated vessels will gradually disappear as the healing process occurs. This may take between two and eight weeks.

Most patients see excellent improvement after just two treatments. Everyone responds differently to treatments, with some needing only one treatment and others requiring a third treatment. You can optimize your results by closely following the post treatment instructions. The usual treatment interval is eight weeks.

Immediately following the procedure you may experience some redness in the treated area. The redness usually dissipates within one to three days. Also, although it is not the intended purpose of this particular treatment, hair growth may be impaired in the treated area.

Most treatments average between 15-30 minutes depending on the size of the area to be treated. If there is a large surface area, some sessions could last up to one hour. Prescribed topical anesthetics should be applied 30-90 minutes before the treatment time (this is greatly encouraged to increase your comfort).

The basic price is $99.00 for 15 minutes of Laser time. We work swiftly in order to optimize your expenditure. The total time varies significantly based on the number and size of the vessels to be treated which then directly impacts cost. At the consultation, the area is examined and time estimates are given along with estimated costs, so that everything is up front. An actual timer is used during the treatments for absolute accuracy.

We’re pleased to offer Enhanced Skin Rejuvenation, a revolutionary skin treatment using multiple laser wavelengths to eliminate and reduce pigmentation, broken capillaries, wrinkles and improve facial toning. It is most often performed on the face and neck, but the chest, hands, arms and legs can be treated as well.

Enhanced Skin Rejuvenation is ideal for eliminating a variety of problems including:

• broken capillaries • wrinkles • rosacea • spider veins • large pores

Laser light is absorbed by pigmented areas where it is converted to heat, causing a breakup in the pigment. In broken capillaries and spider veins, the laser energy is absorbed by the pigment in the blood and collapses the unwanted vein. For wrinkles and skin toning, the laser stimulates collagen growth. We will analyze your skin condition and help you select the most effective treatment for you.

Effects are cumulative. After the first treatment you will see improvements to broken capillaries, small facial veins and some pigmented areas within a few days. Other improvements such as wrinkle reduction and toning will be more subtle and may take one to three months. Friends may suggest that you look more rested. With each subsequent treatment, subtle changes will accumulate until you have achieved the improvement you desire.

A series of three to six treatments, spaced two to four weeks apart, is our standard recommendation. Occasionally, more treatments may be needed for certain individuals or conditions. Periodic occasional maintenance treatments may be prescribed for optimal, lasting results.

Immediately following the procedure you may experience some redness, swelling and/or a slight darkening of pigmented areas. The redness and swelling usually dissipate within one to three days however, darkened pigmentation may persist and peel lightly for up to one week. Makeup can be applied to the treated area immediately, if necessary. Additionally, hair growth may be impaired in the treated area, although it is not the intended purpose of this particular treatment. It is extremely important to apply a moisturizer with SPF3O sun block and avoid sun exposure on a daily basis to prevent additional sun damage.

This treatment takes approximately 30-60 minutes. Prescribed topical anesthetics should be applied 30-90 minutes before the treatment time if needed.
