At Pacific Plastic Surgery, we offer a range of laser treatments:
IPL Photorejuvenation
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) is a non-invasive technology that uses high intensity pulses of light to penetrate the tissue and create heat, targeting the skin imperfection in a controlled manner. The body’s natural process then removes the treated tissue, while collagen and elastic fiber stimulation occurs, resulting in a visible improvement in skin tone and overall appearance.
The Lumenis® Optima™ IPL Photorejuvenation treatment offers visible improvement by reducing blood vessels, unwanted brown spots, rosacea and stimulating the production of new collagen, which helps to reverse the effects of sun-induced aging. The procedure is fast and with no downtime, so you go in and out in a flash!

ResurFX
The Lumenis® ResurFX™ treatment is a fractional skin rejuvenation solution, to improve overall skin texture, as well as to significantly improve scars from acne, surgery or trauma, and stretch marks, enabling us to offer you remarkable results for younger, healthier, glowing looking skin. Our unique fractional rejuvenation technology, the ResuFX non-ablative skin resurfacing, stimulates the production of new collagen and elastic fibres in the deep layers of skin. Stimulating new collagen is the key to a more radiant, youthful looking skin.

Laser Tattoo Removal
The Lumenis® treatments enable us to effectively remove black, blue and other dark tattoos, either amateur or professional. The Lumenis® Q-Switch technology enables optimal tailoring of the treatment according to the type of the tattoo, to effectively target the dark pigment and destroy it. Ultrashort laser pulses target the tattoo ink in the skin and break it into small particles that are naturally dissolved by your body; the surrounding skin is left intact.

Our unique technology enables optimal tailoring of the light source and energy to effectively target the vascular condition and cause it to fade away.
