The Palomar RejuveLux (TM) Process clears sun damage and visible veins for a Rejuvenated Appearance!

We all want clear skin, but nature has a way of sabataging us with frustrating imperfections, especially as we age and sun damage accumulates.

Fortunately, skin rejuvenation has advanced beyond the painful procedures of the past. The Palomar RejuveLux (TM) Process offers comfortable and effective photofacials for the treatment of sun damage and visible veins.

Treat Multiple Conditions
The RejuveLux Process uses pulses of concentrated light to clear:
-Sun Damage: Wide area of pigmentation on the face, chest and arms.
-Sunspots: Induvidual pigmented lesions, also known as age spots.
-Rosacea: General inflammation of the cheeks and face.
-Spider Veins: Induvidual vessels, which can be red, blue, or purple in color.

Safe, Comfortable, and Fast
In the past, harsh treatments resulted in red, raw skin, with a long recovery period.

But the RejuveLux Process provides the most skin-safe, comfortable, and effective photofacials available, without any downtime. RejuveLux appointments are quick, and you can return to work or other activities - looking and feeling fine!

FAQ
How does Palomar pulsed light work?

Palomar Systems use specialized hand pieces which filter light from different parts of the spectrum. Each band of the spectrum has a wavelength that is idela for different treatments, such as sunspot removal and vessel clearance.

The Palomar RejuveLux hand pieces emit pulses of light into the skin. The light is absorbed by the pigment in sunspots and the blood in visible vessels, and converted to heat. The heat dissolves the cells that create the pigment and shrinks the vessels.

How is Palomar pulsed light different from laser?

Pulsed light systems and lasers are very similar, but Palomar Pulsed Light Systems use a much larger treatment window than most lasers. this spreads light over a wider area of skin and allows faster coverage of the skin and quicker treatments as a result.

What body areas can I get treated?

Any area, except directly around the eyes. The face, neck, chest, arms, back, and legs can all be treated.

What are Palomar RejuveLux treatments like?

Your treatment provider will move the handpiece over your skin, pulsing it all the while. Each pulse will send a beam of light through your skin. A flashing light, an audible tone, and a mild sensation on the skin will tell you when the hand piece is being pulsed.

What shouild I expect after treatment?

-Immeadiately after treatment, you can expext a mild sunburn-like sensation, possible accompanies by some minor swelling. This usually lasts 2-24 hours, and can be soothed with cold gel or ice packs.
-Sunspots/Sun Damage: The sunspots will darken after treatment and be naturally shed from the skin within 1-2 weeks
-Rosacea: Skin tone will be more normal, with less pronounced redness within a week after treatment.
-Spider Veins: Vessels may disappear after treatment or they may appear darker and then fully or partially fade within 10-14 days.
-Typically, several treatments will be necessary to achieve complete clearance of sunspots, rosacea, and vessels.
