IPL Laser Hair Removal

Are you tired of shaving or ingrown hairs.? Try IPL laser hair removal. Our IPL comes with an interor cooling system to make the procedure as comfortable and quick as possible. What you need to know: laser hair removal takes several sessions. Typically 8 spaced 4-6 weeks apart for neck and up and 6-8 weeks apart for neck and below. Why is this.? The hair grows at different rates and have different growth stages. These stages are called anagen, catagen and telgon. The hairs bulbs need to be hit in all stages. With that being said no waxing, sugaring or plucking can take place 6 weeks before starting your sessions or in between sessions. Shaving only. Why? If there is no hair bulb there is nothing for the IPL to absorb to. What else do you need to know? You must shave the day before or the morning of your session. A tight to the skin shave is needed with no stubble. Otherwise the energy from the device is attracted to the hair on top of the skin and will not reach the bulb where it needs to go to be an effective session. NO TAN, self tanner or spray tan can be on skin. Sunkissed skin is ok. However if you have been out sun tanning, boating, back from a sunny holiday, wait. It is dangerous and cause a burn to the skin. The IPL energy will want to penetrate into the skin rather than the bulb. Who is the best candidate? The more contrast the better. Light skin and dark hair. Why? The less melanin in the skin, the IPL will penetrate into the hair bulb. Very little of the energy will be collected in the skin. With being said our IPL can only treat skin type 1 to 4. IPL does not work on red, blonde or grey hair. Our device is safe for Skin type 1-3 and light 4. Not sure of your skin type? Take the quiz at the top of the page.

As you can see becoming “hair free” is a process. It takes several sessions over a period of time. You will see a reduction after a few sessions but completing a full series and keeping those appointments on time is essential for results.

Laser Tattoo Removal

Laser tattoo removal. How does it work.? The machine is set to the appropriate settings . We will ask questions such as: how long you have had the tattoo, where you got the tattoo, if its had a past cover up, if it was done with an amateur or professional. These questions are an important part of the screening process to give the client the safest and best result. A series of these sessions will need to be done and compliance in post op instruction is a must for proper results. How many sessions may you need: professional tattoos 6-15, amateur 2-6, cosmetic 1-4. Why such a range? As a provider there is no way to know what brand/type of ink was placed in the skin or how your body has reacted to it over the years. Or how your body will react to the procedure. How it works? The laser penerates into the skin and ink to “break up” the ink into small sandlike pebbles under the skins surface. Your white blood cells then try to make a dome over the ink and gobble it up and over the next 8 weeks and send through the endocrine system. This is why some tattoos start to naturally fade over the years. Your tattoos are not necessarily fading from sun exposure! Your body starts to try to break down the ink as soon as they are first done. So this laser energy breaks the ink down and lets the bodies white blood cells do their job. What inks are easier to remove: black and dark ink. Reds and greens are the hardest. The more contrast between skin and ink the better . Light skin with dark ink for example. What can you expect: Laser tattoo removal is not the most comfortable. A gel pack or cold air is placed on the area for a few minutes and on and off during the procedure to try and help with discomfort. It is a quick procedure! If you feel a numbing cream may help, you can purchase Dr. Numb on amazon and place before procedure. You MUST place it 50mins before and cover with saran or seal and press or it WILL NOT work. The time and covering matters. We will clean the area and disinfect it before starting . You will feel and hear a very hot snap as we do the removal. Once the session is complete we will disinfect and place ointment and a dressing. Prepare at home before hand with an ice pack, aquaphor,regular polysporin (do NOT use the antibotic one), second skin or tegaderm bandages, or regular bandages or gauze and medical tape that will fit over the tattoo. I have post op spray available for purchase as well. How do prep: You can NOT have any tan. It is extremely unsafe to do this procedure with any tan or self tanner or spray tan. Stop blood thinners a week before if possible. If not possible let us know so settings can be adjusted. No hair can be on the tattoo. So close shave the day before. No actives on the area 7 days before. What to expect after: Keep area COVERED with bandage or dressing of choice, avoid activies such as working out or activites that cause sweating or rubbing on the area for 48 -72 hours . Redness, tenderness, bruising, swelling, itching, blistering , water blistering and crusting is all normal . You can take tylenol or advil for any discomfort. Clients may experience hypo and hyper pigmentation that may last 3 to 12 months after the last session. As you can see tattoo removal takes time and patience. 8 weeks between sessions is ideal. As opposed to laser hair removal, the longer wait between sessions the better. Our laser tattoo removal is performed with a Qswitch Laser. This procedure is safe with this device on skin type 1-3 and light skin type 4. Less sessions required if tattoo just needs lightened for a cover up. Not sure of your skin type?

What is Permanent Jewelry?

Permanent jewelry is a custom-fitted piece of jewelry—typically a bracelet, anklet, or necklace—that is welded directly onto the wearer’s body without a clasp. It's designed to be a long-lasting accessory that symbolizes commitment, friendship, love, or personal milestones.

Using a quick and safe welding process, a delicate chain is measured to fit perfectly and is then painlessly welded closed while you wear protective glasses. The result is a seamless, clasp-free piece of jewelry that stays on until you choose to remove it.

Permanent jewelry is made from high-quality metals such as 14k gold, gold-filled, or sterling silver to ensure comfort and durability for everyday wear.

She is very quick to understand your strengths and weakness to allow for your complete success in your practice. She is very knowledgeable and patient. I highly recommend her for all your educational endeavors . Tanya

Trina has the most wonderful, clean, fresh, private space. It has style and flair, as she does! Trina knows what she is doing, recommends the best treatments for what I am looking for, and has wonderful prices. Trina helped me spot a spot on my face that turned out to be Basal Cell cancer; her keen eye is much appreciated! She had great recommendations for scar reduction after the cancer was removed. I highly recommend Trina for her knowledge, space, honesty, and vibe in general!

— Shannon Clarke

Trina’s services always exceeds my expectations! I’ve had two laser hair removal treatments done on my legs and underarms, and after only the first I noticed a difference - the regrowth was already patchy with bald spots! Trina also gave me a carbon laser facial for my acne. The laser zaps are loud but don’t worry, it’s completely painless, just a little warm tingly-tickle feeling. My face looked completely rejuvenated and my skin was still glowing the next morning! I’m excited to come back for my next treatments!!

— Claire J

Trina is the best! I have recently finished a series of microneedling with BioRePeel to fade the melasma on my face. It has done that and so much more - softened deep lines and smoothed my skin overall. Very happy with the results. I’m also very impressed with her own Lily organic products, in particular her Brightening Serum - what a noticeable difference that made immediately. She is very knowledgeable about the services she offers and the products she can provide for you. And all of this is very budget friendly!
