Skin Rejuvenation Near Naperville, IL

Prejuvenation refers to the process of delaying and preventing the most common signs of aging skin, including fine lines, wrinkles, discoloration, acne scars, and general skin laxity (sagging skin). Patients begin to notice the signs of aging at different ages, which is why we offer custom-tailored skin rejuvenation treatment plans that focus on not only targeting the existing signs of aging on the complexion but also taking preventative measures to stop further signs of aging or the onset of aging in younger patients.

Both the Moxi Laser and BBL Hero are customizable treatments that can meet the needs of patients looking for a treatment that rejuvenates the skin and focuses on prevention and pre-juvenation. Some patients may benefit from a treatment plan with one of these devices or with a combination of our skin rejuvenation options. Plus, we can use both the BBL Hero and Moxi Laser systems together for incredible, enhanced treatment results.

BBL Hero uses powerful IPL, which stands for intense pulsed light, to safely and painlessly improve the skin.

The device delivers results faster than other similar devices and has a built-in cooling system that ensures patient comfort and safety throughout the treatment. You can expect to see improvements in the appearance of your skin in 2 to 3 weeks following your treatment. You’ll notice healthier, smoother, and glowing skin, and with regular treatments, you can take preventative measures and effectively fight against the aging process long-term.

BBL Hero is a Broad Band Light device that targets reds & browns in the skin, as well as induces collagen production. BBL Hero is a newer and more advanced version of BBL. It has additional filters that enable it to deliver higher energy and is known for its enhanced comfort & safety features. The device includes an integrated cooling system and advanced technology to minimize discomfort during the procedure. Patients may experience less pain and reduced redness or swelling afterward, all while getting a better result.

What skin concerns can be addressed with BBL Hero treatments?

BBL Hero addresses skin concerns such as pigmentation, rosacea, broken vessels, cherry angiomas, underlying redness, and skin aging.

Is there any downtime associated with BBL Hero treatments?

Downtime is very minimal with BBL Hero. There is no residual discomfort post-procedure. Expect the pigmentation already present to darken & eventually slough off over the weeks to follow time. You are also able to go back to your normal routine the next day and even apply makeup after the procedure.

How long does a typical BBL Hero treatment session take?

BBL Hero treatments are significantly faster than traditional BBL, with full-body treatments taking only minutes. Large areas like the back, arms, and legs can be treated in as little as 10-15 minutes.

How many BBL Hero treatments are typically needed to see results?

Most patients require a minimum of 3 treatments spaced 3-4 weeks apart for the face, neck, and chest and 6-8 weeks apart for body areas to achieve their desired aesthetic outcomes. After the initial series, maintenance treatments are recommended 2-4 times per year.

What should I do before and after a BBL Hero treatment?

Before treatment, avoid excessive sun exposure, self-tanners, and tanning for at least 2 weeks. After treatment, protect the treated area from sun exposure, use gentle skincare products, and avoid picking or scratching the treated skin. Its also recommended to avoid activities that cause flushing (e.g., exercise, hot showers, saunas) for 12-24 hours post-treatment.

Initial results can be visible within 2 to 4 weeks of treatment. However, full results may take several weeks to become apparent, with facial pigment typically taking 7-10 days to fully flake off and heal, while body treatments may take 7-14 days.

Moxi Laser

The Moxi laser is a fractionated wavelength laser system and laser skin resurfacing treatment that safely and effectively rejuvenates the skin during a quick and painless treatment process. This non-ablative laser resurfacing treatment focuses on using preventative measures and pre-juvenation to ward off the aging process as long as possible and help patients preserve the health and radiance of a youthful-looking complexion. While it’s primarily designed as a preventative laser resurfacing treatment, it can also target specific skin concerns, including:

  • The early signs of aging and minimize fine lines
  • Uneven skin texture, like acne scars and surgical scars
  • Skin laxity
  • Sun-damaged skin
  • Uneven skin tone
  • Pigmentation concerns, including melasma

While the laser is highly effective, it leaves the outer layers undamaged.

What To Expect From a Moxi Laser Treatment

For Moxi laser, we apply a topical anesthetic 30 minutes before the treatment. There is minimal downtime once the treatment is over; we will provide you with a list of aftercare instructions to protect your skin and see the best possible results.

Treatments are typically very quick but may be longer based on your treatment plan. You can expect to see noticeable results the week following your first treatment, and your results will continue to improve as the effects of increased collagen and elastin fiber growth become more visible. Final results include younger-looking and smoother skin.

Complimenting and Customizing Your Treatment With Sylfirm RF Microneedling

We can use the Moxi laser to improve the complexions of those with melasma and rosacea and enhance your results by adding SylfirmX RF Microneedling and BBL Hero to the treatment process. SylfirmX RF microneedling is a collagen induction therapy treatment that uses microneedles and radiofrequency energy to create tiny injuries in the skin to force the body into healing mode which naturally encourages collagen production.

The body responds by increasing circulation to the area, cleansing the micro-wounds with an immune response, and healing the treatment area by increasing collagen and elastin production in the area.

Who Is a Good Candidate?

Patients of all different ages with all different skin types make good candidates for Moxi laser. This device delivers a treatment that patients can schedule year-round to preserve youthful skin. Patients who want to address specific skin concerns and minimize wrinkles make good candidates, as do those who want to prevent the onset of the aging process and those who want to brighten and rejuvenate their skin.
