Whether it’s reducing fine lines and wrinkles, reducing scarring, or the simple love for smooth, beautiful skin, options abound for treatments that help with appearance and overall skin health. Dolce Vita Wellness & Medical Spa offers numerous options for a terrific skin boost, with some favorites including chemical peels, dermaplaning and laser resurfacing. Each treatment touts unique benefits and unparalleled results. 

Chemical peels

During a standard chemical peel treatment, a solution is applied to the skin to remove the top layers and the skin that grows back is noticeably smoother. Chemical peels tend to be on the face and are ideal in treating wrinkles, discolored skin and scars. Based on the advice from an expert esthetician, treatment can be done at different depths, from light to deep. Deeper chemical peels offer more dramatic results and require a longer recovery period; a light or medium peel often requires multiple treatments to achieve the desired results.

Benefits of chemical peels include:

• Reduced fine lines
• Corrected sun damage and pigment differentiation
• Improved acne and appearance of scars
• Better skin tone and texture
• Smoother skin resulting in better absorption of topical skin care products

Dermaplaning

A safe, non-invasive method of exfoliating and removing dead skin cells from the top layer of skin, dermaplaning is the ideal option for a pain-free treatment. Dolce Vita’s service providers use a small surgical blade to remove up to several weeks of dead skin build up for fresher looking skin. Typically, clients book five or more dermaplaning sessions for optimal results. 

Benefits of dermaplaning include:

• Reduced fine lines and wrinkles, age spots, broken capillaries, uneven complexion and scarring
• Even skin tone
• Removal of peach fuzz (a.k.a. Vellus hair)
• Quick and pain-free
• No recovery time

Laser Resurfacing

Commonly known as laser peels, lasabrasion or laser vaporization. Laser resurfacing is the most precise technique to remove skin layers. Using beams of light focused on the outermost layers of skin, laser resurfacing removes damaged skin while preserving and stimulating the vibrant layers beneath the surface while stimulating collagen production. Candidates include those with fine lines or wrinkles around the eyes, mouth or forehead, acne scarring or non-responsive skin after a facelift. Laser resurfacing treatment can also help reduce the appearance of warts, age spots, liver spots, sun-damaged skin, enlarged oil glands and birthmarks.

Benefits of laser resurfacing:

• Reduced fine lines and wrinkles
• Diminished redness, discoloration and brown spots
• Tightened skin and collagen production promotion
• Improved scarring from acne, injury and surgery
• Reduced appearance of prominent blood vessels and enlarged pores
