Skin Analysis with
Emage Image Pro®
At Bare Body Laser Spa, we offer Image Pro® skin analysis as a complimentary addition with every face treatment.
The Image Pro® uses high-resolution 3D technology and numerous wavelengths of visible light to reveal the true state of a patient’s skin. Image Pro®scans measure your skin pigmentation, pore size, and porphyrins (evidence of bacteria lodged in pores). It also scans UV spots, sun damage, texture, and wrinkles. It even tells you your skin’s age!
With this assessment of your skin, we can compare your skin condition within your peer group. It even tells you your skin’s age! This helps us develop a more targeted treatment program for your specific needs, while also tracking your progress and treatment outcomes over time.
Image Pro® captures left, right, and frontal facial views, giving us a clear picture of your skin. In minutes, you will be able to view your scans on the computer screen. Your first analysis will become the baseline for your treatment progress. You will be able to view your own before and after pictures and see for yourself how your skin treatment plan is helping you.

How to prepare for your appointment:
Choosing a treatment can be intimidating, especially if you are not sure what you’re wanting to improve. That’s why we offer Image-Pro
- Make sure that you have clean skin. Remove all makeup and skin care products, and cleanse your face thoroughly. This will help the Image Pro get a better look at your skin and identify any issues.
- Be prepared to answer questions about your skincare routine and overall health. The technician will likely ask about your diet, stress levels, and any medications you are taking. Be honest in your answers, as this will help them better understand your skin.
Diamond Glow Facial
At Bare Body Laser Spa, we offer skin analysis as a
complimentary addition with every face treatment.
DermalInfusion (Diamond Glow Facial) is a non-invasive skin resurfacing treatment that combines exfoliation, extraction, and infusion of serums to improve the overall health and appearance of the skin. The DermalInfusion treatment can be customized to target specific concerns, such as uneven skin tone, dryness, or acne. The DermalInfusion treatment is safe for all skin types and can be performed on both the face and body. If you are looking for a way to achieve radiant, youthful-looking skin, Dermal Infusion at Bare Body Laser is the perfect solution for you.
How DermalInfusion Works:
- Exfoliation: The treatment begins with a diamond-tipped wand gently exfoliating the outer layer of the skin, removing dead skin cells and promoting cellular turnover.
- Extraction: Simultaneously, the DermalInfusion device uses a vacuum to extract impurities, including blackheads and debris, from the skin pores. This step helps unclog pores and cleanse the skin.
- Infusion: The third step involves the delivery of targeted serums into the skin. The unique aspect of DermalInfusion is that it allows for the infusion of specialized serums chosen based on the individual’s skin concerns. These serums can address various issues, including hydration, brightening, or anti-aging.
DermalInfusion is an excellent way to achieve brighter, smoother, and more youthful-looking skin.

How to prepare for your treatment:
- Wait at least six months post Accutane/isotretinoin use before your Diamond Glow treatment, as isotretinoin use, may compromise the skin’s protective barrier.
- Discontinue the use of topical products containing AHAs, Retinols, or vitamin A three (3) days prior to your Diamond Glow service.
- If you are prone to herpes simplex outbreaks, such as cold sores, consult your provider on ways to treat prior.
- If your face or treatment area has irritated skin (sunburn, open wounds, sores) the day preceding your appointment, please contact our office before your appointment.
- This procedure may not be performed over open lesions or compromised skin.
Be sure to arrive at your appointment without any makeup or skincare products on your face. This will ensure that the Dermalinfusion can work its magic!
How to prepare for your treatment:
For all face treatments we take photos. This is to track the progress of the treatment.
- Your provider will assess the current needs and condition of your skin to determine the most beneficial SkinMedica serum and settings for your treatment, which may change from session to session.
- You may feel a slight “scratching” sensation during your treatment, along with a light suction. Most patients enjoy this exfoliating, extracting and infusing process, describing it as a “massage”; however, if you are ever uncomfortable, let your provider know and settings can be adjusted.
- Your provider may apply topical serums, moisturizers, or SPF following your service.
After Care:
- Some patients may experience a mild redness immediately following their Diamond Glow service. This is temporary and generally resolves within a few minutes up to several hours.
- You may apply makeup immediately post treatment.
- Avoid use of topical products containing AHAs, Retinols, vitamin A, for three(3) days post treatment
- No exfoliating for one week post treatment, as your skin has just received an
exfoliation. - Your skin may feel slightly more sensitive to your skin care products, as the superficial layer of dead skin has just been removed through exfoliation. This is usually very tolerable and requires no special care. However, if a product feels too sensitive, discontinue use for a few days.
- You could experience a breakout following your Diamond Glow service, as the skin is purged from impurities. This will resolve on its own, and often becomes less apparent with regularly scheduled Diamond Glow treatments.

How to prepare for your treatment:
Preparing for a Peel involves several steps to ensure optimal results and minimize the risk of complications. Here’s a guide on how to prepare for a peel:
- No direct sun exposure for 2 weeks pre-treatment. Minimizing sun exposure in the weeks leading up to the peel can prevent sunburned or excessively tanned skin and can increase the risk of complications. Always use sunscreen with at least SPF 30 when exposed to the sun.
- Discontinue the use of certain skincare products containing retinoids, alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), beta hydroxy acids (BHAs), and other exfoliating agents for at least one week before the peel. These products can increase skin sensitivity.
- Inform us about any medications you are currently taking. Certain medications, such as oral retinoids, may need to be adjusted or discontinued before the peel.
- Keep your skin well-hydrated in the days leading up to the peel. Moisturized skin tends to respond better to the exfoliation process.
- Avoid waxing or laser hair removal procedures on the treatment area for at least one week before the peel.
- Peels can cause visible peeling and redness, so plan for some downtime during the peeling phase. It’s advisable to schedule the peel when you can, avoid social events or activities where visible peeling might be a concern. (roughly around 3–7 days)

Facial Skin
Rejuvenation & Tightening
Want to take years off your face?
Bare Body Laser Spa treatments can rejuvenate your skin.
It’s often said that our lives are written on our faces.
As skin ages, it becomes thinner and less elastic because collagen and elastin, the tissues that keep the skin firm, become weaker. But if you feel like doing a little editing — erasing a few fine lines, softening a deep furrow, or evening out some patchy spots. Then Bare Body Laser Spa can help you achieve those goals!
Facial skin rejuvenation and tightening can be achieved through various non-invasive treatments designed to improve skin texture, reduce wrinkles, and enhance overall skin tone. At Bare Body Laser Spa, we offer state of the art and cutting edge treatments to achieve these goals.
Facial Skin Rejuvenation & Tightening Treatment Options
Treatment Option 1
Neogen Plasma is a dramatically different, safe and clinically proven skin regeneration treatment.
New, healthier, natural collagen growth will improve contours, tighten your skin, and enhance your overall appearance. Clinical studies have shown improvement for as long as two years after treatment.The results are dramatic improvements infinite and deep wrinkles, acne scars, skin laxity, and discoloration, as well as poor skin tone and texture.
The Process Explained:
- Thermal energy is applied to the skin
- Skin is disrupted
- Tissue contracts and the skin tissue is awakened
- Natural wound response begins to work
- Skin is made to think there is a wound
- Skin starts its repair process
- Skin starts to repair the outer layer (epidermis) by generating new cells to repair the damaged one
- Skin left with improved tone and texture giving the skin a smoother and more uniform look, while ensuring the skin is healthier
- This process resurfaces the skin
- The next layer of skin is stimulated into action. The dermis and fibroblasts get to work producing collagen and kick into repairing the skin
- Thermalenergy applied also creates a disruption of the solar elastosis; this damage caused by the skin causing wrinkles and thicker skin
- The elastin in the skin is also remodeled during the process creating a tightening effect and reducing the appearance of wrinkles

Eye Rejuvenation
Eye Rejuvenation can be achieved through various non-invasive treatments designed to improve loss of volume under the eye, drooping of the upper eyelid, wrinkles and enhance overall appearance of the eyes. At Bare Body Laser Spa we offer state of the art and cutting edge treatments to achieve these goals.
Eye Rejuvenation Treatment Options
Treatment Option 1: NeoGen PSR Eye
NeoGen Plasma is a highly effective, non-ablative skin treatment that uses Nitrogen plasma to deliver energy to a targeted treatment area to achieve intense skin
regeneration. This is not a laser. NeoGen Plasma uses an ultra-high frequency generator to convert inert nitrogen gas into actuated ionized gas, which is called plasma. NeoGen offers an incredible non-surgical eye lift solution by supporting elastin and the production of collagen, which results in substantial improvement in volumetric change in the tissue. NeoGen PSR is safe to treat all areas of the face and neck.
The Process Explained:
Your skin has three layers. The top layer is the epidermis, the middle layer is the dermis, and the bottom is the hypodermis.
- The treatment performs plasma resurfacing on the top layer of the skin. During the plasma resurfacing, heat is delivered to the skin using plasma energy. The plasma energy penetrates through the layers of the skin.
- At the epidermis layer, it kills all germs and bacteria, then it increases its absorption rate to the dermis layer, where the tightening of the aging skin begins.
- Before it reaches the hypodermis layer, it is already stimulating the regeneration of skin cells, collagen, and fibroblasts.
- Stimulates collagen production
- Lifts droopy eyes
- Minimally invasive
- Reduces moderate to severe wrinkles and fine lines
- Brightens and lifts the eye area
- Improves skin texture and tone
- Minimal downtime

Before and After
Microneedling / DermaFrac
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that involves the use of a device with fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. The purpose of microneedling is to stimulate the body’s natural wound healing process, leading to the production of collagen and elastin, two proteins essential for maintaining the skin’s structure and elasticity.
Benefits of Microneedling
- Collagen Stimulation: Microneedling promotes the production of collagen and elastin, improving skin elasticity and firmness.
- Wrinkle Reduction: The procedure can reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
- Scar Improvement: Microneedling is used to diminish the appearance of acne scars, surgical scars, and stretch marks.
- Texture and Tone: It helps improve overall skin texture and tone, making the skin appear smoother and more youthful.
- Minimally Invasive: Microneedling is considered a minimally invasive procedure with a shorter recovery time compared to more aggressive treatments.
Microneedling can be performed every 4-6 weeks until desired results are achieved.
DermaFrac is epidermal Microneedling Infusion Therapy which is an advanced aesthetic treatment used to target many skin concerns including fine lines and wrinkles, sun damage, brown spots and pigmentation, open pores, congested skin, mild acne scarring, and dry and dehydrated skin. It involves microneedling, infusion of customized serums, and LED therapy to improve skin texture, hydration, and overall appearance.
An Overview of the DermaFrac Treatment
- Micro-Needling: The treatment begins with micro-needling, a process that uses a handheld device with very fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. This stimulates the natural healing process and promotes the production of collagen and elastin.
- Serum Infusion: Following micro-needling, a selection of serums is applied to the skin. These serums can be customized based on the specific skincare concerns of the individual. Commonly infused ingredients include hyaluronic acid for hydration, peptides for collagen stimulation, and growth factors for skin regeneration.
- Vacuum-Assisted Simultaneous Serum Infusion: A vacuum-assisted handpiece is used to enhance serum penetration into the micro-channels created by the micro-needling. This ensures that the serums are effectively delivered to the deeper layers of the skin.
- LED Therapy: LED (Light Emitting Diode) therapy is often incorporated into the DermaFrac treatment. Different LED colors have specific benefits for the skin, such as reducing inflammation, promoting collagen production, and improving overall skin tone.
Key Benefits of DermaFrac
- Collagen Stimulation: Micro-needling stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, promoting firmer and more youthful-looking skin.
- Hydration: The infusion of hyaluronic acid helps hydrate the skin, improving moisture levels and reducing the appearance of fine lines.
- Customizable Serums: The treatment can be tailored to address specific skincare concerns, including aging, pigmentation, and acne.
- Minimally Invasive: DermaFrac is considered a minimally invasive treatment with minimal downtime.
- Improvement in Skin Texture: Over time, patients may notice an improvement in skin texture, tone, and overall radiance.

- Drink plenty of water to stay hydrated, as adequate hydration supports the skin’s natural healing process.
- Introduce your regular skincare products gradually, especially if they contain active ingredients. Consult with your provider before resuming the use of products like retinoids or exfoliating acids.

Laser Active ACNE Facial
For active acne, Fotona’s laser treatment reduces acne inflammation through photoselective absorption and controlled heating effects. Fotona’s high-powered Nd:YAG laser safely penetrates the skin to an optimal treatment depth to thermally and selectively destroy overactive sebaceous glands. In addition to its thermal penetration effects, the Nd:YAG acne laser treatment also accelerates the healing process and stimulates collagen remodeling, an important step in the long-term treatment of acne.
You’ll see a noticeable difference on the first treatment; however, we recommend 3 for optimal results. Sessions should be every 2 weeks.

Facial Skin Resurfacing
If aging, acne, or too much time in the sun has left your face with blotches, scars, wrinkles, or lines, skin resurfacing may help your skin look younger and healthier.
Facial skin resurfacing offers a safe and effective method to remove surface imperfections, shrink pores, lighten and diminish or remove pigment, and reduce lines and wrinkles; the result is a more youthful appearance of the skin.
It can also treat loss of skin tone and improve your complexion if you have scars or sun damage.
At Bare Body Laser Spa, we offer ablative and non-ablative options for skin resurfacing. Skin resurfacing is a cosmetic procedure that can use laser technology/Nitrogen Plasma to improve the appearance of the skin by addressing various concerns such as wrinkles, fine lines, scars, uneven skin tone, and texture irregularities. There are different types of methods that can be used for skin resurfacing, each targeting specific skin issues. At Bare Body Laser Spa, we conduct an assessment of your skin to determine what method is best for you. No matter the concern, we can address the issue.

Rosacea
Laser treatments can be effective in managing the symptoms of rosacea, a chronic skin condition characterized by redness, flushing, visible blood vessels, and sometimes, the development of papules and pustules. Laser therapy can target the blood vessels and reduce redness associated with rosacea.
Rosacea is a common and chronic condition that affects facial skin and causes flushing, inflamed lesions, thickened skin and enlarged pores. Secondary symptoms include itching, burning or stinging which can develop due to inflamed hair follicles caused by ingrown hair or Staphylococcus bacteria. Depending on severity, this disorder can have a significant impact on quality of life.
Rosacea is not curable, but symptoms can be successfully managed and at Bare Body Laser Spa we are here to help!
The number of treatments required are based on skin severity and symptoms. Typically, it takes a series of 3–6 treatments, scheduled 6 weeks apart, before significant results are visible. Results can last as long as 3–5 years.

Sylfirm X
- RF Microneedling
Sylfirm X is a radiofrequency microneedling treatment that combines thermal and mechanical action to tighten and tone the face and body, and regenerate collagen fibers.
RF Microneedling is a cutting-edge, minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that combines the benefits of traditional microneedling with the added power of radiofrequency energy. This treatment is designed to rejuvenate the skin, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, tighten loose skin, and improve overall skin texture and tone.
During an RF Microneedling treatment, tiny needles are used to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. As the needles penetrate the skin, they deliver radiofrequency energy deep into the dermis. This process stimulates the body’s natural healing response, promoting the production of collagen and elastin, the key proteins responsible for youthful, firm skin.
Most patients notice an improvement in their skin’s texture and firmness within a few weeks of treatment. Optimal results are usually achieved with a series of 3–4 treatments spaced 4–6 weeks apart. Maintenance treatments may be recommended to sustain the results.
Ready to transform your skin? Contact us today to schedule your RF Microneedling consultation and discover the benefits of this revolutionary treatment.
