 Affirm

Affirm Laser treatments are taken to the next level with the Combined Apex Pulse (CAP) technology in the Affirm system. The Affirm is a fractional light energy device that allows for a more relaxed and effective treatment with longer lasting results for patients.

A topical anesthetic may be applied prior to treatment, however, a majority of patients do not find it necessary to apply the anesthetic and opt to procede with treatment without using this option.

Benefits of Affirm Treatments

  • Minimal discomfort
  • Virtually no "downtime", may return to normal activities immediately
  • Skin rejuvenation
  • Collagen stimulation to reduce fine lines and wrinkles
  • Overall skin tightening and toning
  • Helps fade age spots and correct sun-damaged skin and other facial discolorations
  • Minimal risk

    Most all skin types can be treated effectively with very little to no downtime post treatment. The Affirm works by micro-pulses of light to the dermis to aid in collagen stimulation, correction of wrinkles and acne scars, and photo-aging. The side effects from treatment are mild redness that usually resolves in just a few hours and some clients may report some mild puffiness and swelling that quickly resolves.

    When will results be seen?

    A series of 3-6 treatment sessions is typical depending on the type and severity of the condition being treated. It usually takes about 3-8 weeks after the first session to start seeing results. Many clients state they are experiencing overall skin tightness and clarity with their first treatment.
