Minimally Invasive Aesthetic Services

Home/Minimally Invasive Aesthetic Services

Clogged pores, dirt, oil, and sun damage can make your complexion look dull and unhealthy, often causing the skin to take on a weathered appearance over the years. Fortunately, effective skin renewal is possible at our Kansas City practice without surgery, anesthesia, or recovery time. Our minimally invasive aesthetic treatments are performed in-office and can remove dead cells from the superficial layer of the skin, revealing newer, softer, and healthier skin underneath. Thanks to advances in the field of aesthetics, our minimally invasive technologies can reduce pore sizes and improve the appearance of fine lines, acne scarring, melasma, broken capillaries, and other common skin imperfections.

SkinPen® Microneedling

Microneedling with SkinPen® is a process that involves replacing dead, unhealthy skin cells with the newer, healthier skin underneath. During this in-office treatment, the handheld SkinPen® device is used to make thousands of tiny microperforations in the skin. As multiple passes are made, the microneedling treatment stimulates the skin’s natural healing process and catalyzes the growth of a softer, healthier complexion. This stimulates collagen production, as well as helps improve common skin concerns including: 

  • Large pores
  • Redness and acne scarring
  • Wrinkles and fine lines
  • Discoloration, age spots, and hyperpigmentation
  • Rough or dull skin texture

As a treatment that promotes the growth of new collagen, the effects of SkinPen® microneedling are often noticeable for months or years afterward. Results are typically maximized when microneedling is combined with the use of medical-grade skin care products. 

BBL® Photorejuvenation

BBL® photorejuvenation, or a “BBL photofacial,” is a light-based laser treatment capable of improving the tone and texture of unhealthy skin. Short for “BroadBand Light,” BBL® therapy involves using Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) to reduce: 

  • Freckles
  • Scars and acne scarring
  • Redness and rosacea
  • Brown spots, age spots, and melasma
  • Spider veins and broken capillaries

On top of smoothing your complexion, BBL® photorejuvenation can revitalize the skin by providing a firmer, more youthful, and more vibrant skin tone. This technology is safe, effective, and FDA-approved for non-surgical skin rejuvenation. 

HALO® Laser Resurfacing

HALO® resurfacing treatments can erase years of sun damage by treating concerns and imperfections at multiple levels of the skin. Unlike other aesthetic lasers, HALO® operates on both ablative and non-ablative wavelengths. This allows patients to enjoy powerful and med spa-grade skin rejuvenation results without the recovery time associated with other ablative laser skin resurfacing treatments. Best of all, the treatment session only lasts 15 to 30 minutes and patients can feel back to normal within a few days of their appointment. You could greatly benefit from HALO® laser skin resurfacing if you’re interested in improving:

  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Age spots and other signs of aging
  • Sun damage
  • Discoloration in skin cells (dyschromia)
  • Acne scars
  • Pigmented lesions
  • Large pores

During treatment, a topical numbing agent is applied to the skin to make your experience more comfortable. Mild swelling, redness, and tenderness are normal immediately after treatment, but should resolve on their own. Over-the-counter medications can usually help manage discomfort in the meantime.

Thanks to the versatility of HALO®, men and women who undergo HALO® resurfacing generally notice a brighter skin tone and a radiant, healthy glow as quickly as one week after their appointment. Patients report that the tone and texture of their skin is more vibrant, and excellent results are achievable even after one to two treatments.

Advanced minimally invasive technologies can powerfully renew the tone and texture of aging skin, allowing you to enjoy a healthy and radiant glow. Contact Facial Plastic Surgery KC today to schedule an appointment at our Kansas City practice, or to speak with a member of our team about your goals.
