Our advanced treatments are customized to your skin’s unique needs, helping you achieve a clearer, brighter, and more refreshed appearance with minimal downtime.
Many clients see noticeable improvement after a single session, especially for mild to moderate concerns. For deeper resurfacing or more advanced concerns like acne scars deeper wrinkles, or targeted eye treatments, a series of 2–3 treatments spaced 4–6 weeks apart may be recommended.
Most clients tolerate the procedure well with topical numbing. You may feel heat or a light stinging sensation during treatment, but discomfort is minimal and temporary.
Yes! Our advanced technology allows us to treat all Fitzpatrick skin types safely. We adjust the laser settings to match your skin tone, minimizing the risk of post-treatment pigmentation issues.
You’ll start noticing improvements in texture and tone within 5–7 days. For eye treatments, under-eye brightening may become visible within 1-2 weeks, while eyelid tightening results develop gradually over 4-6 weeks. Full results, such as firmer skin, smoother wrinkles, and reduced scarring, continue to improve over the following weeks as new collagen forms.
For mild to moderate eyelid sagging or crepiness, NOUVA Derm™ can provide significant improvement without surgery. However, for severe hooding or excess skin, surgical eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) may still be the most effective option. During your consultation, we’ll assess your concerns and recommend the best approach for your goals.
“I was concerned about my skin texture and large pores, and my esthetician, Kendall, was amazing! She took the time to explain which treatments would work best for me. I decided to try the Nouvaderm laser treatment, and it truly made a difference, my pores look smaller and my skin feels much smoother. The entire staff is super friendly, and the clinic is spotless. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for real results and great care! Dr. M is very friendly and helpful.”
