As a more general approach to many of the problems present in the body, some people just need a general attack. While you may be averse to lasers, there is one type of treatment which is non-invasive and has been able to work surprisingly well on a number of common concerns for a wide swath of patient.

Dr. Raffi Dishakjian is the head doctor over at Nu Vela Esthetica and he has brought numerous patients the type of peace and happiness they need through the therapy known as photo rejuvenation.

Photo Rejuvenation uses BBL broadband light to precisely treat fine wrinkles, age and sun spots, small facial veins, rosacea, redness or flushing, freckles, brown spots, birth marks, port wine stains, red spots, enlarged pores, burn erythema, and hyper pigmentation among many other skin related concerns. The BBL technology uses the power of pulsed light to deliver these results.

It's all about knowing what you're going after. Says the doctor: "By selecting the appropriate wavelength or filer, we will be able to treat a broad range of skin conditions caused by skin aging and sun exposure. Your skin will be smoother, more vibrant, and it will have a more youthful appearance as a result."

The BBL light works by heating the skins upper layers. "Heat absorbed by targeted area will stimulate your skin cells to generate new collagen. This will help restore your natural beauty, blending its natural colors and making it smoother, vibrant and younger looking."

The use of the BBL heat and light are twofold. This is a procedure which not only is able to treat targeted areas but also it's "photo thermal energy will target and eliminate many of the fine vessels that cause redness and the unwanted melanin responsible for pigmented lesions." So not only are the targeted areas well maintained and the blemishes are eradicated but the forward moving effects on your veins will help stop future blemishes from erupting.

All it takes is a few treatments. "While every patient is individual, we will typically go with between 2 to 5 treatments, at a 2-4 week interval" in order to produce the desired results. Though the doctor says that most patients are fine with that formula, he wouldn't rule out the possibility for more. "You may benefit from additional treatments depending on the severity of your condition." But with no down time and no residual effects, why wouldn't you be treated more if it could lead to an all new you?
