NLite®
What is the NLite Laser?
The NLite was designed specifically to combat the effects of aging gently. It is a revolutionary non-ablative laser that does not wound the surface of the skin. The NLite laser energy is focused beneath the skin to gently stimulate the production of collagen.
The new collagen fills in and softens the appearance of wrinkles and aging skin. These precise treatments may take from 10 to 30 minutes depending on the size and number of wrinkles being treated.
What are the benefits of NLite facial rejuvenation?
• NLite works on all pigmentation and skin types.
• NLite treatments are safe and reliable.
• NLite treatments are performed on an out-patient basis.
• NLite is a non-invasive procedure.
• NLite treatments can be performed with topical or no anesthesia.

• With NLite, no post-operative follow-up care is required.
Who are the best candidates for NLite treatments?
All patients that wish to reduce the signs of aging, postpone more aggressive treatments or prolong the results of previous treatments can benefit from NLite facial rejuvenation. Even patients with pigmentation that precludes the use of lasers or those who might wish to postpone the cost of laser and surgical treatments will benefit from our NLite facial rejuvenation treatments.
Are NLite facial rejuvenation treatments for you?
Your doctor will review your medical history, age, skin type and pigmentation, consider your desired results, and determine the best course of treatment for you. Results will vary from patient to patient depending on age, skin type, and condition.
How many treatments will I need?
Every patient is different. Most see results after the first or second treatment. Treatments are normally spaced six to eight weeks apart in the beginning, and then eight to twelve weeks in a maintenance program. Your maintenance program will last as long as you would like to retard the effects of aging or the need for a more aggressive treatment such as laser resurfacing or a facelift.
What will my recovery be like?
NLite facial rejuvenation is so gentle there is no interruption to your normal life. During your series of in-office treatments, you will see ongoing improvement in how your skin looks and feels. No tissue is removed. There is no oozing or crusting as associated with laser treatments, chemical peels and dermabrasion. Bandages are not required.
You can watch as your skin gradually rebuilds from the inside and restores a more youthful appearance to your face. Over a few months, our NLite facial rejuvenation treatments can restore what nature has diminished.
