Chemical peels are a skin treatment that uses acids to exfoliate the skin’s surface. They can improve texture, reduce wrinkles, and even out skin tone. But with so many different types of chemical peels available, it can be challenging to choose the right one for your skin type. Here we will discuss the different types of chemical peels and help you decide which one is right for you.
What’s a Chemical Peel?
Chemical peels are cosmetic procedures that use a chemical solution to exfoliate the top layers of skin. Using a chemical peel can clear up the skin by reducing wrinkles, scars, […]
The best way to show dad you care this Father’s Day is to give him a gift that will make him look and feel his best. Dads put a lot of time and effort into taking care of their families, so they deserve a little pampering too. Here are five of the best skin treatments for Father’s Day:
Botox (or Brotox)
Brotox is simply a Botox injection that is administered to the male face. The name combines bro (as in brother) and Botox. Like women, men’s skin also loses elasticity and becomes loose and crinkled with age. However, the men’s facial features […]
There’s no better way to prepare for summer than scheduling an appointment for Coolsculpting treatment. This non-surgical, minimally invasive procedure may help remove excess fat cells from underneath your skin with long-lasting results. In addition to ‘freezing away the fat’, Coolsculpting can also reduce the appearance of fine lines and cellulite on affected areas of the body.
A treatment that freezes fat cells away may seem too good to be true but don’t worry– there is plenty of research to back its effects and it was approved by the FDA over a decade ago. Since then, the popularity of this procedure […]
We’ve recently shifted more dramatically to a virtual world setting. Many people have continued to work remotely and stay in touch with friends and family from a safe distance. Doing so has its advantages but it has also come with an interesting consequence. We see ourselves more frequently than we may have ever seen ourselves before. As a result, more people have taken that step to have plastic surgery. We understand that surgical correction isn’t ideal for every person, so we want to offer alternative solutions that work. Here, we discuss a few fast facial refreshers that are available at […]
We all have some body fat. We need body fat to help regulate our hormones and body temperature. However, the amount of fat it takes to maintain these biological processes is minimal. Millions of adults struggle endlessly with stubborn fat somewhere on their bodies. Stubborn fat is such a common problem that brilliant minds have developed ways to eliminate it for good. At Lux Skin & Lasers, we have multiple ways to help our clients get the body contours they’ve always wanted. But first, we help them understand what may be contributing to their cosmetic concerns. Here, we discuss why […]
When injectable treatments came along, we completely changed the way that we address the signs of aging. While some people do undergo plastic surgery to correct more severe facial aging, the vast majority of adults who want to restore younger-looking facial contours do so without surgery. They do so with injectables like BOTOX and dermal fillers. While there are many upsides to injectable treatments, there are also a few risks. Bruising is one of them that we get asked about frequently. Here, we discuss why some people develop bruises after getting injectables and what you might do to decrease this […]

We serve people just like you, adults of all ages who want to love their skin as it transitions into new phases through life stages. While we have the tools to manage aging skin and we love to use them, we also know that there are additional steps that some people may want to take to promote long-term resilience. Here, we point out […]
Getting a better body is never as easy as we think it will be. This is why plastic surgery procedures like liposuction and abdominoplasty continue to be so popular. On the nonsurgical side of the aisle, we’ve seen a number of modalities emerge. CoolSculpting was one of the most significant advances in not only nonsurgical but noninvasive body contouring to come about in recent history. And now, the same manufacturer has brought another device to the market. In addition to offering CoolSculpting, we’re proud to perform CoolTone, a fat-burning, muscle-building treatment that is getting all kinds of positive attention. Here, […]
Microneedling has become a popular cosmetic treatment in recent years. Not only is it safe and effective, but it is also pretty conservative as far as professional beauty procedures go. Microneedling is loved for its results as well as its gentleness and minimal downtime. As it is, microneedling has powerful effects on the skin repair process. And yet, device manufacturers have a knack for taking something great and making it fabulous. Here, we discuss the differences between traditional microneedling, which we offer, and Infini RF microneedling, also a leading service at Lux Skin & Lasers.

Microneedling treatments are performed using an […]
