Lasers produce intense light that is absorbed by the pigment in hair called melanin. The melanin absorbs the light and heats up. This heat damages the hair follicle without hurting the surrounding tissue. The damaged hair follicle stops producing hair, the strands are reabsorbed, and the hair sheds within 7-10 days.
Ivy Aesthetics and Laser Spa is proud to announce that it’s the first med spa in Memphis to offer laser hair removal using the Motus AZ+ Laser, BEAUTY and COMFORT in motion. It is distributed by Cartessa Aesthetics and manufactured by DEKA. One of the revolutionary aspects of the Motus AZ+ is the ability to offer SkinclusiveTMAlexandrite laser hair removal technology to clients with ALL skin tones from light to dark.
The Motus AZ+ is PAINLESS and SAFE and kills 90% of the hair follicle while some lasers only kill 50%. The Motus AZ+ results in fewer treatments and delivers long lasting, optimal results. The time frame between treatments are 4-6 weeks. It is also equipped to provide treatment for vascular lesions, pigmented lesions, and skin revitalization.
Laser hair removal can help significantly reduce how quickly and how much hair grows. It is a treatment option to affect how hair grows on your body. This non-surgical, minimally invasive treatment method does not necessarily permanently eliminate hair, but it can help significantly reduce the frequency and thickness that the hair grows.
Laser hair removal is an extremely diverse treatment, and common treatment areas include:
Pigmentation issues come in many shapes and sizes. Age spots, brown spots, birthmarks, and darker pigmented lesions are just a few of the most common challenges. The Motus AZ+ is safe across skin types, conditions, and tones, and can evenly and comfortably treat any shape discoloration. When treated, the pigmented lesion gets darker, breaks up, and becomes ashy and disappears within the next 1 to 2 weeks.
Vascular lesions such as hemangiomas, port wine stains, birth marks, leg and spider veins are treatable with laser… no incisions, down time, and minimal discomfort. In general, laser light works to constrict blood vessels without harming the surrounding tissue. Leg and spider veins visibly disappear and vascular imperfections on the face, including rosacea, are erased.
This service helps with diffused vascular and pigmented lesions as well as stimulates collagen and elastin while evening out the skin tone resulting in a more youthful appearance. Ultimately, it plumps the skin and helps with texture and fine lines with no down time!
